Hey,
im new to /e/os and installed it yesterday.
My problem is, that it always connects and then disconnects from my home network.
On another network and inside an hotspot from my other device it works correctly.
I thought it would switch between the 2,4 an 5 ghz line, but i split them into two networks and the problem is always the same.
My phone is a Poco X3 Pro and I have a Fritzbox 7530AX.
Every once in a while I have a similar issue with my S7.
I cannot reproduce it and it “repairs itself” after a few attenpts to reconnect… my best guess is that it is somehow related to the combination of wifi network (fritz powerline) and the phone but I have not resolved it yet and it happens too seldom to really bother me.
Have you tried getting in touch with avm customer support? from my experience they are responsive …
Do have a nother router? Ask a friend for one!? Any ole thing should do…
Set it up as an access point in your network and see if it works!? (To rule out the Poco, being the issue)
Yeah, they are just not so easy to get, in those countries, where most devs live.
So it is hard to debug and if AVM isn’t aware of issues, they won’t fix it either.
Wanna give them a call? Maybe you’re lucky!
Hey all,
i now contacted AVM and they said, that the Poco does not support the correct Wifi standard to communicate with the Fritzbox.
So i need to install a repeater that uses the old 802.11b (Wifi 2) to connect.
But the Xiaomi page says, that the X3 Pro supports:
2,4G_802.11b/g/n,
5G_802.11a/n/ac
So when i changed the wifi standard in the router to Wifi 4 for both of the split 2,4Ghz and 5Ghz networks it sould work or am I wrong?
And other OS worked without any problem.
So is it an /e/ problem?
You said the phone connects w/o issues with several other networks (other routers) - you can check the connection details in the phone whilst connected to one of those routers (that offers wifi 4) and thus confirm (or not) the phone’s capability of wifi 4-standard.
Was it a good experience talking to them, over all?
To really get someone on the phone like that… cool! But just b does not sound right for a device from 2021!
But most of the hints listed there did not help or i had already tried them.
Then i have send another request with their Contact-Form. I got an E-Mail saying, that it is a problem with the 802.11b Wifi standard. And that i should get a repeater.
But now as mentioned, that does not sound logical to me. Because my Phone worked with exact the same network on its original OS for over a year. And it worked with three other custom roms also.
The trouble only starts when you want to use Lineage OS or /e/OS.
