Wifi issue in specific connections

d_lokesh989

Iam using nothing phone 2 for past 10 days and I have noticed that my phone is connecting with my wifi but the internet speed is too slow that it never cross 1 mb but the wifi works fine with my other devices. And I have tested my phone with other wifis and it works fine too. How can I fix this issue ?

d_lokesh989 bro I had a similar issue for me it was a 0.50mb download and 17mb upload which got bumped up to 9mb download after I changed it from 20/40 MHz to 40MHz. So try changing the the bandwidth of your router to 40MHz it might work, no promises tho😅

d_lokesh989

Yes I tested it and I will attach the screenshot here and I also tested with older phones my wifi goes upto 30 Mbps download speed and 60 Mbps of upload speed

krishnanandA I have similar issues, and changed to those settings in my router. While the wifi speed was improved I get very frequent network drops. Did you also faced this issue after setting it to 40hz?

d_lokesh989 Best to call your broadband service provider if you’re not familiar with the process. Unka toh roz ka kaam hai.

If you feel like you are not confident in this then ask your local wifi provider for support this info is purely based on my experience and I had help from my local provider

Open a Web browser and Type your router’s IP address in to the browser’s address bar.Hit Enter after you type in the IP address (example: http://123.456.1.1)

Your browser may display a warning screen at this point, then Click Proceed.

Most routers have a sticker on them that shows information such as the router’s IP address (shown as Router login details)and the username and password you need to log in to the router

Enter the username and password exactly as they appear. They are case sensitive.

If you’re having trouble finding the username and password, check the documentation that came with your router or contact the router manufacturer.

Then follow this link to change only the channel width to 40Mhz

santhosha_9qp59Cmr4m no I have not seen any network drops if it persists try talking to your service provider

Nothing phone has Wifi Band issues. It doesn’t work properly with few Wifi bands

Hi,

I have seen multiple questions/posts already in the community on this topic from the members, starting from October 2023. But it is not resolved yet, not sure whether they are paying attention on this issue.

Facing slow internet speed issue with my Mobile “Nothing Phone-2” with my Wi-Fi router (there is no problem with the router) other mobile devices and laptops are getting good speed from same router. But my mobile never cross 1 mbps.

Hope this issue will be answered, it been 5 months since this issue was reported by a user in 2023.

PradeepVarma Hey

What’s your router and provider speed? Cause I don’t have any issues with Phone 2

Here’s a few things to try changing the radio channel on your router, you can also

Switch your frequency band on both router and handset. Once done reboot your phone and test speeds.

Recently I’ve seen that my nothing phone 2 is loading the YouTube and twitter posts very slowly i thought could be the issue with my Wifi but after checking on my other phone the speeds were normal on that and better , tried running speed tests several times, But the conclusion was the same my phone 2 is not giving good wifi speed and connectivity something is wrong, is anyone facing the same , Any one knowledgeable can help me out?

Anonymous disable dynamic RAM. Maybe that is the culprit.

Have you tried changing your WiFi data saving mode to unmetered ? give it a try in your network settings for your WiFi network you are on.you might have to change that setting multiple times if you use multiple networks .

(Update) It causes a bit of heat using unmetered WiFi just a heads up

I think it’s issue with the range maybe as when i am close to it it gives proper speeds,. But when i am far away it’s very low compared to my other phone. I will try what you said but i don’t think it will change anything. Thankyou for replying will try.

Agent97

Anonymous no worries ! just wanted to help 😊 I find the WiFi range can be all over place on certain networks and I’ve seen a people talk about that often I hope nothing looks into it

MadOne You are talking about ram booster right ?.I never turned it on in the first place. And I don’t think ram booster is related to wifi😅. Thanks for the reply.

Agent97 Yup , i hope they fix it . Really appreciate for your reply.

Anonymous if you are on 2.5.5 then RAM booster is set to 2GB by default. Try disabling to see if that helps.
