Is Wifi terrible on all Icons?

[Richard Servello]

The only issue I have is signal strength with 5ghz networks. 2.4ghz are super strong, but slow. My 5hgz networks get full speed but tend to have 1 or 2 bars at all times and drop out often.

Two words: Developer Preview. No one on Verizon is running official Cyan/8.1. Allowing everyone to run the DP and not controlling the release of the official package has bitten Microsoft in the ***.

Do you mean bitten Verizon in the ***? I think it makes them look worse than MS. I expect in most peoples eyes MS is finally listening and responding to community feedback by creating the program.

Yeah...wifi on the Icon sux. A bit better with Denim, but still sux.

My WiFi experience with denim is greatly improved. It was beyond poor running DP on black.

I got results similar to indistinguishable. Even though my Icon showed a weaker wireless signal than my laptop, it showed higher download (27 vs. 13 Mbps) and upload (13 vs. 12 Mpbs) speeds. Maybe the issue is with the signal indicator rather actual performance.

since Denim my Wi-Fi got worse, before the update my phone would automatically connect now I have to reboot to connect

The WiFi reception on my Icon improved significantly with Denim.
