[TouchPad Development] method2madness:
This WiFi issue is getting pretty aggravating. I've tried pretty much everything I can think of to no avail. It occurs on both this ROM and CM7 Alpha 3.

I've posted a couple of times with detailed steps of what is happening and what steps I've taken in attempt to rectify, but apparently those of us with wifi troubles are just imagining it, as nobody seems to respond.

Anywhoo, might as well make another one in hopes that someone will actually read this and find it useful.

WHATS HAPPENING

: Data will just inexplicably quit working altogether. I still see the signal level and the TP appears to still be connected, but you get no data when attempting to access the internet with all programs (browsers, apps, etc). When you attempt to go into Wifi settings, it locks up and you get the FORCE CLOSE or WAIT box. If you select WAIT, you will eventually get to the next screen where you can select Wifi Settings, but it's again frozen and you have to select WAIT again. However, all this waiting is moot, because it never goes further than this, and you cannot un-associate (i.e. Forget this network, which is what must be done to get wifi working again) until you reboot. Once you've rebooten (I just now made that word up), you can go into settings forget the network and re-associate with the router. This will work until it gets good and pissed off and decides to drop again.

WHAT I'VE DONE SO FAR

1.) I've tried 3 different routers so far. An Actiontech Verizon DSL Modem/access point with stock firmware with both WEP and WPA, A D-Link DIR-825 2.4ghz/5ghz B/G/N running DD-WRT v24 with WEP and WPA2 (TKIP+AES, and AES only), and an old-school Linksys WRT54G with stock firmware (WPA2 TKIP+AES). It happens on all three. I have noticed that when the TP is in the same room with the router, it doesn't seem to happen. So perhaps it's a signal, or interference thing?

2.) Changed the Wifi sleep policy to NEVER. And back to WHEN SCREEN TURNS OFF and neither make any difference.

3.) Changed the Regulatory Domain to 11, 12 and 13 channels, which made absolutely no difference.

4.) I thought at first, Dolphin Browser was causing it, but it happened even after uninstalling it. I've also uninstalled every aftermarket browser I had on my system (Dolphin, Opera and Skyfire), in case there was a program that was triggering it. Nope.

5.) Cycled Airplane mode when it drops to see if I can get wifi working again without out a reboot. I couldn't.

5.) Changed the Min clock speed to 384kbps and set the max clock speed back to stock (1.2ghz), which again made no difference.

6.) Cleared dalvik and cache several times

7.) Fixed permissions

8.) Did a clean install of both CM7 (alpha 2 and 3), as well as XRON-ified.

At this point, I've run out of things to try. That being said, this is an AWESOME ROM and I am willing to work with anyone who might have an idea of how to fix this issue. I'll be the guinea pig and will happily try whatever is suggested for a possible fix.

I just wanna see this issue put to bed and will help out as much as humanly possible. Just let me know what you need from me and I'll do whatever I can.

I've also added a screen shot of my current wireless setup on the DIR-825 in case this lends a clue.

Sincere thanks to Leoisright, Xron and the Cyanogenmod crew for all the work they've done thus far. :)
