    Yet another MK908 Wifi Problem

    From most of the bad MK908 wifi related threads I've read I don't think I've seen one like mines.


    In short it seems my V1 device seems to cause my router/network to come to a halt.

    I've been using Finless 1.5 for a while now. I don't tinker with it anymore ever since I got it the way I wanted to work. I mostly use it to game and watch videos. I've performed my test several times and each time it brings down the network. Even after I erased 1.5 and installed 1.7 and I still get the same result.

    The test is simple. I start streaming videos on a laptop and a nexus 7. I then go on my MK908 and use any app that needs the net. I click on the Play Store app and once it starts retrieving info all my other devices' videos stop streaming. Every device on the network is affected. Is it somehow overloading my router with requests?

    Other tidbits:
    • Router is a Linksys WRt54G running stock
    • I've tried switching on/off Wireless B and G and changing channels.
    • I use WPA2 security.
    • I turned off all bluetooth mice.
    • I've tried turning on and off all of android's advanced wifi options.
    • Android says the MK908 has a link speed of 11Mbps.
    • MK908 Speedtest was only around 0.30Mbps up and down.
    Anyone else have this problem? Could this be a hardware problem or faulty wifi antenna?

    Hi did you have any luck finding the problem. My mk908ii used to work fine but now it doesnt get any internet speed. The wifi has full bars. And it causes my laptop and phone on the same router to have poor internet connection
