mkay. so i got my dx2 on thursday, and its been one thing after another with this thing maybe i got a junk set and need to swap it out
maybe its my router?
maybe its 2.2.2 ?
but heres the problems im having
with wifi on talking to any router ( not just my own ) i have issues using the browser ( sometimes it works.. sometimes it doesnt. ) i cant download anything from the market or even browse the market.

now i downloaded the " speedtest " app from ookla.net over 3g i get approx 145kps down and anywhere between 80 and 125 kps up with a ping of 127
now. if i connect my to my wifi ( tp link routerWR1043N ) and run the app again. i get..a ping of 47 ms and a download speed of 1200kps and up load of 700kps or greater ( so i know its connected to my router ) but i cant for the life of me browse the web over wifi or if i can get to its only for a few pages than it drops off and stops working


any one have any ideas?
any one know if gingerbread is suppose to fix this?
should i get a different phone or is this androids problem not motorolas?
 
it's something with your router/setup. i have had no problems, nor have i heard of others with wifi problems.
 
No wifi problems here at all. Are you sure you have the correct settings, ie WEP or WE2, etc, or have the correct settings to connect to the router? I just left the default settings and then entered the wifi network name and password.
Bingo.
 
I've been having issues connecting with a WPA2 wifi by using a cert. Android doesn't seem to like to remember that it's okay for it to use the cert. It also likes to only show one bar while I'm sitting underneath a wireless access point. Nor does it like to give the speeds I should be getting for wireless n.

Only a couple of times have I had your issues of not being able to access the market or browser. Simple disconnect reconnect fixed that for me.
 
The only "issue" I've had is the other day, when I tried to use the power control widget to turn on my wifi, it just kind of hung for a few minutes, then said error. I tried again and it worked fine.
 
Sounds like you may just have a phone with a bum WiFi unit. That's not something I've seen either.
 
only Wifi issue I have had is it turning itself off. I have the sleep timer set to never and it still turns off about once and hour. If it turns off I find out real quick as I don't have cell coverage in my office and if I don't get email notifications there will be hell to pay.
 
I have had the droid X2 for a few days now and the wifi worked fine but now it wont work. it says connecting then says disconected? Anyone help please?
 
I've had my DX2 since mid june and I haven't noticed any WIFI issues until 3 weeks ago or so. It is also the same time I bought a new router. I bought the cheapest one they had at best buy to test to make sure my current router was defective. It was and I never returned the crappy one.

I'm wondering if it's my router and not my phone;however, it wouldn't surprise me that this brick doesn't work like other android devices.
