HTC One Wi-Fi Connection Issues - Please help!

I need major help!
I am currently on my third HTC One, after two attempts at a solution, and I am still having the same problem. Here it is: I will connect to my Wi-Fi at home, successfully browse a few pages online, press the power button to put it to sleep, press the power button again to turn it back on, then see (in the status bar) the Wi-Fi disconnect then reconnect, try to browse more pages online with no luck because the connection does not work. The only way I can consistently get Wi-Fi to work on this phone is after waking up my phone from sleep I have to turn Wi-Fi off then back on to re-establish the connection.
I've check my settings extensively and changed a few defaults in an attempt to get this to work. Here are my settings currently: "Keep Wi-fi on during sleep" - Always; "Wi-fi Frequency band" - 5 Ghz only; "Wi-Fi optimization" is checked; "Best Wi-Fi perfomance" is checked. My Wi-Fi password was entered correctly and I am currently writing this on a laptop connected to the same home network.
I am at my wit's end. I just want this beautiful phone to work properly. Are there any suggestions as to what might be causing this and how to fix this situation? Or am I doomed to an endless cycle of HTC One exchanges until I find one that works? Please help! Thanks.

It seems that rebooting worked for you.  That's great! 
Here's what happened to me:
I purchased two HTC One phones, one for me, one for my wife.  Both could not connect to my 2.4GHz wifi router.  I did all the usual steps, reboot router, change password and reboot, switch from 128-bit encryption to 64-bit encryption and reboot, etc.  Nothing worked.
The problem:  Android 4.2.2
The solution:  Upgrade to Android 4.3 (Jelly Bean) via the [Settings] - [Software Update] - [Check New] menu
But how to upgrade when you cannot access WiFi?  Call Verizon.  They will either temporarily extend your data plan to allow you to download the massive 500MB installation package or work with you to put the update on a laptop where you can then transfer it to your SmartPhone via the memory card, or over USB.
This is not meant as a plug for Verizon, but I must say the technical folks are pleasant, patient, and very capable.  And now my HTC One, and my wife's, are happily communicating with many different WiFi routers both 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz.  (Notice picture of two smiling people riding horses into the sunset)
Hope this is helpful to the next HTC One customer.

  • GT72 - CONNECTIVITY ISSUES - PLEASE HELP!

    Good Afternoon, I recently purchased an MSI GT72 2QD 216
    I love the the laptop so far, but I am having 1 issue, I can't watch twitch streams.  Everytime I try all I get is a sudden DROP in my connectivity
    I usually am at a download speed of 50gbs+, whenever I start playing a video on twitch, or streaming pandora or even watching videos on youtube, I plumet to 3gbs (according to speedtest.net)
    Is there something I need to do, or some setting I need to do to not have this?  Its getting so bad I can't even watch anyone stream on twitch, meanwhile if I were to stream/play a game the connectivity isn't touched i'm perfectly fine.
    p.s. I have also tried this on my older laptops and none of those have the problem.  So its just on this laptop.
    PLEASE HELP!

    Your laptop GT72 2Qx already supports 802.11b/g/n and 802.11a/c mode.
    The MSI official driver will activate both modes (auto by default, you can check your WiFi card in Device Manager to see this).
    So now it depends on the router you connected.
    If your router also supports 802.11a/c, it should be able to establish two SSIDs at the same time, one is for 802.11b/g/n (2.4GHz) and another is for 802.11a/c (5GHz). The users can select one of them to connect under corresponding frequency.
    Some older routers can only support 802.11b/g/n and establish only one SSID. Even if it supports 802.11a, you still need the privilege to access the router and switch it to run on 5GHz (requiring router rebooting).

  • New Infinity connect issues - please help

    We are having ongoing issues with getting BT infinity installed to our new house.  I really need someone that can actually help us find out what is wrong and how we can resolve the issues we are having.
    It all started a few months ago when we ordered BT infinity and a new phone line to our new Chapel conversion house.
    Initially there were some issues with the engineer being unable to get the phone line to the house. After numerous phone calls and several engineers visits, we these have now been resolved and we do have a working telephone.
    The problem seems to be with the Infinity. Nobody can give me an answer as to why we have not yet got a connection.
    When the phone engineer visited he said that he would try and connect the Infinity in the green box. – When he went to do this he tried to obtain our patching information and was informed that there was no live order for infinity on our number… As there was nothing more he could do he left.
    We then checked with BT and they confirmed that we do have an order for infinity and that there was a problem that needed and engineer to look at. (We have a box and are paying for the service already…
    We were told last week that an engineer was going to attend on Monday 13th Jan and that we definitely would have a connection by last Monday at the latest… - no engineer attended despite my wife spending her 3rd day in the house waiting for an engineer!
    She phone BT on Tuesday and was told that there was a problem and she would be contacted by Thursday Morning at the latest. – Needless to say , No phone call!!
    We really need to sort this connection out.  Is there anyone who can take this and run with it until it’s sorted? – We are getting nowhere talking to random individuals who have no real history of our connection history.
    Please Help!

  • Router/Connectivity issues please help!

    Hello, I'm running Verizon FiOS with the Westell 9100EM Modem/Wireless Router. I just recently upgraded the security settings on this (Upped to WPA2-Personal from WEP, Turned on MAC filtering, and turned off SSID Broadcast). I input all of the wireless devices in my home network (2 laptops, 3 gaming consoles, 1 netbook, 1 desktop w/ wireless card, and 1 wireless printer) into the allowed devices list, and confirmed all of them were able to connect to the home network after turning off the SSID Broadcasting.
    The next morning I awoke to find that nothing could connect wirelessly, so I troubleshot that by just connecting again to the network by entering in the SSID when prompted, and entering in the security key. Went to work and came home to find that once again nothing was connecting wirelessly, and that I was getting "Low connectivity" warnings, and I could not connect to any internet service (browsers, IM programs, Windows Sidebar gadgets, etc.).  In the midst of trying to figure out what was going on, we had a power flicker (gotta love Florida) which reset the modem and things came back on like normal.
    Last night, I come home from work and what do ya' know... it's the same "Low Connectivity" error and symptoms as I just described, I try resetting the modem... nothing. I try resetting the modem and restarting the computer... nothing. Opened a command prompt and ran ipconfig /all and it pulled up an IP Address of 254.204.X.X (the x's are only there because I don't remember the last two octets), and so I checked the properties of the networking device on my computer to see if somehow a static IP had been set up, but it was all still set up to auto-assign everything. So, I started opening up the actual network properties and checked some boxes, changed a setting here and there, but stupidly didn't make any notes about what changes I made, and then the next thing I know the internet just came to life.
    Tonight, once again, I come home from work and school, and the network is pulling the same thing, only this time, I was able to reset the modem/router and it seemed to fix the issue.
    My question is this: Did I mess something up when I turned off SSID Broadcast, turned on WPA2-Personal, and set up MAC filtering? Or is there something wrong with the unit? Or is there something else going on here altogether?
    If anyone could please help me with this, it would really be nice to get my mom off my back. Thanks!

    You don't say what version of windows. I suggest you enable the SSID broadcast and see if that helps. If you are running WPA 2 with AES you are secure enough. The MAC filtering is adding extra overhead that is not necessary. I suggest you get rid of that. Anyone can just as easily spoof the MAC address and anyone can find the SSID if hidden. These are not security measures. WPA2 with AES is.

    Pleae help.  I received a new iPod touch 4th generation yesterday.  When you go to the wifi page, it shows the name of our router and when I select it, it asks for the password.  The password is put in CORRECTLY.  And then to the left of the router name, where the check mark goes when my old IPod and iPhone connect to the network doesn't change to the check mark to show that it is connected.  After putting the password in, there is a circle turning around in complete circle, but never changes to a check mark thus not letting me connect to the internet.  Please help.  Several devices are connecting to the wifi at the same time, so I know it is working.

  • MAJOR CONNECTION ISSUES PLEASE HELP!

    Right this story is going to be long but if anyone could help it would be much appreciated, yesterday i wanted to find out my ADSL settings for my router but first i needed my admin password which i had forgot. The BTGuide told me that i should re-set my router to default settings by pressing the small red button in order to find out and reset my admin password to log onto the bt online website, which i did. 
    But when i then reset the router, ALL information had been lost such as the Home Network which had been created between numerous computers in the house. And now the biggest issue, one of the laptops which was working before will not connect to the router, i removed alll networks and even typed in the correct wireless key but it still will not connect to the bthomehub wirelessly.
    On this laptop i am using now it also would not originally connect so i had to "Manually connect to a wireless network" and somehow this allowed me to be on the internet, i tried this with my other laptop but it STILL will not connect to the internet. My connection was completely fine before i reset to default settings so is there anyway i can get the previous settings back or more importantly connect the laptop to the internet.
    Since this has happened my connection has also been AWFUL on this laptop, i did a speed test yesterday before all of this had happened and it was this;

    I then tested it today and it was this'
    http://www.speedtest.net/result/1332068147.png
    Please someone help as the whole internet conenction will not work on some computers and is now completely messed up on this one, cheers if you've actually read this and want to help.
    Solved!

    inssider when run shows the networks roundabout you and if there are any on the same channel causing interfernce on your network and stopping devices connecting or losing connection.
    as I said enter 192.168.1.254 in your browser and the admin password should be on the back of the hub.  when in to hub manager then just go to wireless and you will see the b/g/n and you should be able to just select b/g.  at the same place you should also be able to change the channel if you want to a free channel according to inssider

  • Connection issues, please help?

    I have a Mac and my boyfriend uses a PC now. When we both had macs, we never had a problem with both of us connecting to the router at the same time. My PS3 and ipad connect to it with no problem as well. But now if he tries to connect with his PC and I cam connected it knocks me off and he still can't connect and vice versa. Has anyone lese had this issue or know how to fix this. It's pretty annoying to only be able to use one computer at a time.

    Are the computers both wired to the router or wireless? Double check if the cable connections are correct on the router. The router should be connected to the modem on its Internet port. If both computers are wireless, changing the channel of the router might help. What is the model number of the router by the way? You may have to reset and reconfigure it again.

  • Windows XP Internet Connection Issue Please Help.

    Hi,
    I recently had my iMac serviced for repairs, and now I can no longer connect to the internet.
    Under my device manager there is one PCI device listed as unknown.
    I'm wondering if when I had a new logic board installed that they replaced my network adapter or something.
    I don't know where to go to download drivers or what drivers I need.
    Anyone experienced enough with this to help me?

    From your signature I see that you are using Tiger. Therefore I am assuming that you are using Boot Camp while it was on its beta stage. If you still have the drivers disk that you made during installation then insert that in the disk drive while booted in XP. This should re-install all the drivers and detect that unknown device in device manager. Its worth a try.

  • IPod Connection issue - Please Help...!

    I have a strange problem! My iPod does not connect (any more) to Windows (and hence not iTunes). I have seen lots of other people raising this problem, but mine is slightly different. What happens is that when I connect the iPod, it IS initially picked up by Windows (Vista), the computer makes a 'dun 'sound, and if I'm quick, I can see it in the Devices area (under Storage). But then within a second or two there is another 'dun' sound, anmd the iPod disappears. It never gets as far as saying 'unrecognised device'.
    Incidentally, the iPod (event though not recogised) does charge up through the USB port, and (incidentally) other devices (e.g. pen drive) work on the port.
    Any GURU's out there that can help me. I'm desperate! I need some podcasts!!!
    Thanks

    Go to your "Device Manager" which is under the Hardware tab in System (at least on WinXP). There, you'll probably see the device is having an issue, a yellow "!" or a red "x". First, try updating the driver, if that doesn't fix it ... delete the device from the system. Then restart and reconnect it, let windows automatically install the device again, and it should work again.
    I don't know why this happens, but if you look carefully through the forum here, you'll see it seems to be happening quite a bit with Windows XP and Vista.

  • Mid 2010 15" MBP i5 A1286 POWER ISSUE-PLEASE HELP-

    The MBP works fine when mains connected but the only issue is every time I take the charger out it shuts down on me!!! So I have checked with a multitester & looks good the only thing i find hard to check for power is the battery itself as its hard to get a good connection, also I took to local Apple store & they checked with a new battery but said its still same issue so the guy disconnected nearly all the connecters off to check if they causing issue & he said now the battery is charging.
    So they still have the laptop to do further tests etc, but I’m not sure what could be the problem hear as maybe there is some component which is bad so the battery’s not charging or what else could be the issue please help & advice as I’m really confused as if it was something to do with the logic board then surely it would not even charge even after checking with the multitester or like Apple genius done by disconnecting other components...

    My airport utility no longer works, but I have just changed my router.  Is there something I need to do ?  The orange light shows up on my airport, rather than the green one it should have.  Please help !!!

    **** little info about your equipment.
    If you just replaced the router with an Airport Extreme or Express:
    disconnect the modem from power, disconnect the new router from power, connect the modem to power and wait till it os fully started up, then connect the new router to power. After a while the amber light will turn to flashing, then after a while it will turn to green. Then with AirportUtility (in Aplications/Utilities) it should be configured with the password.

  • Trackpad Issue - Please Help!

    Hi there,
    Hope you can help me out here.
    I've recently purchased a 15" i7 Macbook pro. The machine is but 3 weeks old &, of course, very well looked after.
    A few days ago, the built-in trackpad started behaving eratically. Cursor moving by itself, not responding to touch, clicking and opening things involuntarily. Not good at all. Many users seem to have had this exact same issue.
    These problems seemed to miraculously stop after a few re-boots and possibly a software update? I really couldn't tell you what resolved the problem.
    Unfortunately I now have a totally different problem.
    There is a thin, possibly 8 to 10mm horizontal strip across the centre of the trackpad that no longer responds to touch. If I move my finger from the botom of the trackpad upwards (or vice versa), the cursor will stop momentarily as it passes over the horizontal strip. The buttons are fine and the rest of the trackpad is fine. For the moment, I've increased the cursor acceleration so that I can at least navigate round the screen with a smaller area of the trackpad. USB magic mouse seems to work fine.
    If anyone else has experienced this &/or found a solution for this issue, please help me out here. I have rifled through endless threads about MBP trackpad issues with little success & do not live close to an apple store/genius bar.
    This is a 3 week old machine that cost me a small fortune. To be getting software/hardware issues so early on in it's lifespan is really rather worrying for the future.
    Appreciate your help here.
    J

    I'm not sure what caused this, but I extended my lunch break and drove the machine down to the Westfield apple store. I didn't have an appointment with the Genius Bar but I managed to persuade one of the staff to speak to a technician in the workshop. She came back into the store and told me that they had replacement trackpads and that , considering the machine was only 3 weeks old, the technicians kindly sandwiched the repair into their timetable at zero cost. 2 Hours later, I now have a perfectly functioning trackpad/machine.
    I can't thank them enough.
    My only gripe is that I couldn't speak to a technician to find out what the problem was, how they resolved it or what causes these issues for future reference. Understanding why these problems occur often helps to build your own framework of understanding. Most of the threads i've read about trackpad issues are largely unresolved with people only speculating the problem/solution.
    The initial issue I had with the trackpad's erratic behaviour seemed to be a well known problem that many are associating with a trackpad firmware update. Unless by pure coincidence I had an immediate & major hardware fault after it, which is unlikely, my personal guess is that the two issues were related.
