aww102 I am having problems in wpa2 network

And adaptive connectivity is off

aww102

VaishakV For my WPA2 network the security standard is specifically set to WPA2 rather than WPA2/WPA3 or WPA/WPA2. Also I have configured the connection to the WPA2 network via the network settings for my 4a Pro to only use the 5 GHz band, instead of auto-connecting to & switching between the 2.4 GHz & 5 GHz bands following the strongest connection.

VaishakV I think that’s outside of the main issue reported in this thread though and would suggest creating a new thread to avoid confusion.

I am flying two ssids on an aruba 515 access point in instant mode. My wpa3 ssid shows as wpa3 transition mode on the nothing 4a pro. The wpa2 ssid doesn’t show anything. The wpa3 one will never let me get more than 50mbps roughly. As soon as I switch to the wpa2 ssid I get the usual 400mbps I usually get on other devices. For some reason wpa3 is bugged on this phone which is a shame because I just bought it and now it has this weird quirk. For the wpa2 and wpa3 ssid the phone is associated to the access point at 500~mbps on a 40mhz 5ghz channel. Weird it is associated at a way faster speed on both ssid but only wpa3 has a slower speed. I hope a software update fixes this wpa3 bug that others seem to be experiencing. This is my first nothing phone and I guess I took basic features for granted with other phone vendors

jose_z0cNDugHf3 yeah, this has been everyone else’s experience as well. There is a bug report in with Nothing and they claim it will be fixed in a future firmware update, but I agree, WPA3 is something that should have been supported/tested from the get-go.

Turning off adaptive connectivity seems to have fixed the issue for me I now get my usual wifi speeds. I did have to turn it off then re associate as a client by turning wifi on and off. Now the crappy roaming between access points is a whole different issue. I can’t walk to the other side of my home and have the phone roam. It’ll hang into the weak AP and fully disconnect and reconnect or hang on without Internet access. This is with 802.11v and k enabled on the AP.

jose_z0cNDugHf3 I know some people who have had the WPA3 bug have tried this already and still experience the issue (including myself). I’d be interested to hear if you end up experiencing the issue in the next day or so.

I have the same problem (with an Nothing Phone 3 OS Rev from 1.6.2026).
The phone is not changing the Wifi band automatically and drops to very low speed.
It stucks at the 2.4GHz even when 2 meters away from an AX AP with 5GHz available.
Setup is Mikrotik AX and AC environment (2.4/5GHz) with 8021.11v and k enabled and only WPA2.
Both wifi share the same SSID (as normal).

This phone is the only one in the network which has this problem. All other brands (Apple, OnePlus, Moto, FireTab) and Laptops didn’t have this issue. I’m very disappointed about that.

AlexanderPoeltl this isn’t the same issue or phone. This issue is specific to the 4a Pro and WPA3 networks.

I think it’s time to consider the likely possibility that Nothing will NOT resolve this bug.

I got an email from them this morning asking me to install the update that was released a month ago and if it is still not resolved then to submit another log.

Of course I’ve already installed that update as all of you have as well. I will not submit another log though. I’m not submitting a log for them to wait another three months, claim it’s resolved, and then ask me to submit another in September. I’ll just continue using my iPhone and Pixel. This phone will go to the recycling center. I’ll just not buy boutique smartphones again. So much potential… wasted.

They will not

i have the same issue it kept disconnecting on my Wi-Fi and then connects on my data instead… this always happens ever since i updated to the recent update two weeks ago.

jose_z0cNDugHf3

Is the july 31 update a resolution to this wpa3 issue?

Lexcyn

jose_z0cNDugHf3 I doubt it - I didn’t see anything in the changelog to indicate this would be fixed, unfortunately.

jose_z0cNDugHf3

Looks like a no still seeing slow speeds. In losing enthusiasm for the brand

I am also getting the same issue on my 4a pro.

Observation - when I am on 2.4Ghz I am getting the speed in kbps and if I switch to 5hz I am getting 150 mbps. It shows some improvements when switching.

It is really frustrating. Nothing, please fix this asap.

Note: I have another 3a and my wife has a 3a Pro. They are not having this issue.

Lexcyn

Yeah it’s been too long now it needs to be fixed. @Antonio_Luis not sure if there is anything you can do to prioritize this bug fix

VPSliveIN

Is anyone actively fixing this issue? The experience on this phone has been terrible, and I honestly regret choosing Nothing.

Upset_guy_upset

I’m experiencing the same exact issue… this is unacceptable. @Antonio_Luis can we please get an update from the engineering team on when we should expect a fix on this.

The phone should truthfully just be pulled from the shelves for this kind of software bug, having a phone unable to support wifi reliably in 2026 is inconceivable.

VPSliveIN

Guys, please do something. Still facing the same Wi-Fi speed issues here. This is getting really frustrating day by day. @Antonio_Luis - any updates?
