Default 8820 weak wifi antenna

Please Login to Remove!

I have a new 8820 with AT&T and the wifi performance is not real good. My unit keeps dropping the wifi (light goes off, then on, then off) even when I'm in the same room as the wireless router. It's almost like the edge network shuts the wifi down when it transmits. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Richard

I think it could be an issue with the wifi on the 8820 because I have the same issue and so have others. Has anyone heard of a resolution to this issue?

What light are you refering to? I think the Wifi on the 8820 is excellent. I can pick up my AP all over my house and in places my laptop and my nokia E90 can not.
