I have problems with Wi-fi. Full signal but no connection (
But if I take a hand in the PCB, it appears!

Nik: The MK809 III's all suffer from very, very weak WiFi chips - they only perform around 1dBi!

The solution is simple but effective. You need to open up the card (very easy - put a screwdriver in the gap between the case where it clicks together). When it is opened, you very clearly see the antenna - it is glued onto the case.

Carefully remove the antenna from the case, let it flip outside the case (possibly use a scissor to cut a small gap, so the wire can fit). Click the case together again; Now your WiFi performance just increased around 300%.

If you want better WiFi - make your own antenna and solder it onto the wire from the antenna. There are many DIY's on YouTube to do this.

However, the solution to just let the antenna out from the case seems to have worked - I get enough speed to stream HD movies, and that is good enough for me.

Chip: AP6210, 1343
Antennas immediately pulled out of the case, even changed on the outside.


Signal at -47 and it works, but only fall to - 55 - 56 at once does not work!


And what a strange, if you remove the body from the device then drop are much less frequent, but clothed body - does not work!
