Does your Lumia 900's WiFi occasionally go dead?
We're getting a few reports that at least for some users their Lumia 900 behaves a bit oddly on WiFi. The reports vary as to the experience but most of it seems to revolve around the idea that when the device goes to sleep, the WiFi data connection doesn't re-connect properly upon waking.
From one description on Nokia's help forum is thus:
"When my Lumia 900 is connected to my house's WiFi (airport extreme), it will connect fine. However, when my phone goes to sleep (or when I don't use the connection for awhile), I can't connect to the web even though my phone saids that it is still connected to the network. It seems like some other people are also having the problem. http://forums.windowscentral.com/lumia-900-ace/189504.htmSometimes a soft-reset will fix the problem, and sometimes it will take some time before I can browse the web with my WiFi network. I tested with my other phones / laptops / PDAs, so I am sure that it is not my router's problem."
Others reported the same issue as well even after the latest update. Admittedly we had this problem with our review and purchased units but it seemed to have been fixed with the first patch. However, even our WiFi got a little funky after the latest update just a few weeks ago. It's not an "all the time" bug and it's a bit hard to replicate but we've certainly experienced some odd data issues with our 900, though rare.
So the question for everyone here: do you notice any dropped data issues with your Lumia 900? Is it with WiFi, cellular or both? Take our poll after the break and/or leave a comment. Thanks, səlɹɐɥɔ sɯıs, for the tip
