V7S2X has bad WiFi connection

Post by bubsik »

During the watching TV the picture is freezing because of lost WiFi signal.
I'm going to menu-connection-WiFi is disconnected
Trying to connect again to my WiFi and all is frozen, I can only pull out the power cord to restart device.
I'm already disappointed buying this model. :x
I have old Freesat HD7 - it much better, than this piece of sh....t :evil:

upd: router is within 1 meter from device and WiFi signal is strong

WiFi always works better if the modem (and receiving item) are within a few feet or (line of sight) where they don't have other electronics in between them blocking signals.

My AppleTV box used to do similar to what you talked about and it did better when I moved it closer to my modem/router but still had issues so I ended up using an ethernet cable and now it works perfectly. And its made by Apple which is a big brand name.

I'm talking that between receiver and router is less than 1 meter, and it loses signal.
I would better connect to ethernet port, but there is no port.

hello
Do you plug in USB device and wifi device? can you exchange the usb and wifi port?for example,the front port is wifi,then back port is usb.

Hi!
Front port even doesn't recognize adapter.
So I'm using only back port.

Hola,

Yo tengo el mismo problema. El wifi funciona durante un tiempo y de repente deja de funcionar. He actualizado el firmware (23/12/2020) y sigue sucediendo. Ya no sé si pensar que es problema de la antena o del propio decodificador al ver que os sucede a más este problema

Un saludo.

I have the same exact problem... It cannot be the wifi dongle going bad to all of us
It must be some bug in the receiver firmware
Please work on this

Update

I switched the antenna to the front port and it works without disconnecting, however in the first month I used the receiver the back port didn't fail as well.

I'll keep you updated

You can disbale and then reenable wifi in network settings to connect again. No need to power off/on.
But htere is a bug when connecting to wifi infrastructure where more than one router uses same SSID. Then stb is disconnecting from network periodicaly. See viewtopic.php?f=32&t=19161&p=95055#p95055
