Guest Morgan0916 Posted April 1, 2011 Report Posted April 1, 2011 The Liquid Metal supports the 802.11 b/g/n. But I found it cannot connect to the WIFI stably, if the router set to "n" (only, not b/g/n mixed mode). It cannnot keep the connection more than 1 minute. Does anyone found the same problem? Or any good solution? Thanks in advance.
Guest vache Posted April 1, 2011 Report Posted April 1, 2011 Could you provide a logcat when it try to connect ?
Guest dieghito Posted April 1, 2011 Report Posted April 1, 2011 I confirm, my liquid wirk good in wifi and I'm using wifi n
Guest Morgan0916 Posted April 9, 2011 Report Posted April 9, 2011 I confirm, my liquid wirk good in wifi and I'm using wifi n Thanks Vache and dieghito. There are more informaiton: maybe it's not about wifi n, just because the wifi used secured with 802.1x EAP2/EAP-MSCHAP-v2.
Guest Alex Gorbachenko Posted April 12, 2011 Report Posted April 12, 2011 Does anyone found the same problem? Or any good solution? Thanks in advance. yes, same problem for me. this is g/n mode issue (probably bug in old ar6000 wifi driver). to fix this issue, follow the steps below (for rooted device): - adb remount rw; - adb shell; - vi /system/bin/wlan_tool; in vi, press 'i' key for editor mode; - uncomment WMODE="bg" line (line 11 in file); - press 'Esc'; - then press ':'; - then press 'wq'; - then press 'Enter'; or adb pull /system/bin/wlan_tool, edit, then adb push back to device. - reboot phone. enjoy.
Guest Alex Gorbachenko Posted April 13, 2011 Report Posted April 13, 2011 and decrease wmitimeout. add echo 1 > /sys/module/ar6000/parameters/wmitimeout after insmod /system/wifi/ar6000.ko in /system/bin/wlan_tool link to my wlan_tool: http://www.2shared.com/file/XyW4RVR6/wlan_tool.html p.s. probably, wmitimeout is enough.
Guest Alex Gorbachenko Posted April 13, 2011 Report Posted April 13, 2011 Does anyone found the same problem? Or any good solution? Thanks in advance. can you show dmesg from device ? command: adb shell dmesg

What is the interest to change this setting?
Guest Alex Gorbachenko Posted April 13, 2011 Report Posted April 13, 2011 What is the interest to change this setting? in fact, no changes are helping to solve the problem completely. past 2 days I'm trying to solve this problem by adjusting the parameters of the module or using wmitool without any stable results. sometime it works, sometime not. it seems that the problem can not be solved with current ar6003 driver for acer 2.6.29 kernel.

Maybe it can help : http://localhostr.com/file/PyUq79T/updated_wifi_drivers.zip Updated drivers from 1.100.99 bin, i check wlan_tool and wmiconfig too, they are identical, so i just included wifi driver.
Guest Morgan0916 Posted April 14, 2011 Report Posted April 14, 2011 can you show dmesg from device ? command: adb shell dmesg Hi Alex, thanks so much. Sorry, I cannot show the dmesg this moment, because I found other problem in my phone, alredy sent to Acer servcie to repair. Will update you if it's done.

Guest Alex Gorbachenko Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 same problem with this driver. wifi on, connected, and wifi indicator always show that wifi connection is ok, but in fact network is dead. see dmesg parts below: wifi on - http://pastebin.com/v6Tu9PXz turn off wifi - http://pastebin.com/FGicZWAN so, this is a bug in wpa_supplicant. using wpa_supplitsant, phone connects to the AP and lose connection after a few seconds. using wmiconfig works fine (except wifi indicator). i wrote simple script for wmiconfig. see example below: #!/system/bin/sh -x SSID="" PASSPHRASE="" CIPHER="" rmmod ar6000 insmod /system/wifi/ar6000.ko if [ "$?" != 0 ] ; then exit 1 ; fi sleep 3 false while [ "$?" != 0 ] do wmiconfig -i wlan0 --connect $SSID --wpa 2 $CIPHER $CIPHER $PASSPHRASE sleep 5 ip link set wlan0 up sleep 2 ip link show wlan0 | grep -qo 'state UP' done dhcpcd wlan0 for i in $(seq 1 4) do setprop net.dns${i} $(getprop dhcp.wlan0.dns{i}) done setprop net.dnschange 1 setprop init.svc.wpa_supplicant running setprop wlan.driver.status ok

Guest vache Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 vache, can you make archive with wpa_supplicant from gingerbread rom ? You can get it from Gingerounay.
Guest harylauw Posted April 22, 2011 Report Posted April 22, 2011 1.100.99 bin is it from liquid Vache?
Guest dieghito Posted April 24, 2011 Report Posted April 24, 2011 can someone imrove the ad hoc connection??? I find a script flashable for n1 and desire. I try with amon ra, but them wifi does not work
Guest Morgan0916 Posted April 25, 2011 Report Posted April 25, 2011 You can get it from Gingerounay. Hi Alex, did you get the driver and fix this connection issue? Thanks
Guest Alex Gorbachenko Posted May 10, 2011 Report Posted May 10, 2011 Hi Alex, did you get the driver and fix this connection issue? Thanks no.
Guest Morgan0916 Posted May 16, 2011 Report Posted May 16, 2011 no. I have flashed the latest rom (1.100.36.AAP.GEN2), but this issue still is outstanding.
Guest grayfoxpt Posted May 16, 2011 Report Posted May 16, 2011 i also have problem connecting to eduroam, i think it must be due to this issue. did anyone try with 2.3 bin?
Guest Morgan0916 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 i also have problem connecting to eduroam, i think it must be due to this issue. did anyone try with 2.3 bin? Same question. Anyone had a try?
Guest CedricGatay Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 The funny thing is I had to disable wifi-n mode of my router because of the iPad being unable to keep a stable connection (where my Liquid MT does not have any problem : mixed mode b/g/n...)
Guest grayfoxpt Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 i still have this problem in gingernouray 1.1, which is strange since this is supposed to be fixed on android 2.3
