Title: Nexus 7 Wifi issue using Mifi Dongle
Post by: kevinalyons on November 12, 2012, 03:33:32 AM

I have a Mifi dongle (mobile wireless broadband). I have had it nearly a year now with very few issues. I have bought a Nexus 7 and have found that my internet connection is pretty poor. I thought it might be the Mifi so I tried running the Nexus off my HTC One X (wifi hotspot). It struggled with this as well. I am not sure if it's the network or the device.

Any suggestions would be welcome as to what I can do.

Since you have not mentioned how your device works on other networks, my first suggestion would be to try your Nexus 7 on a WiFi network and if the problem continues seek a replacement.

I will be trying this later. Thanks
