IPhone :: Does The Otterbox Defender Slow WiFi
Apr 15, 2012
I just purchased the OtterBox for my iphone 4S, and it seems that now my wi-fi while at home is very very slow. Just wondering if the OtterBox could slow my connection, as I am not sure where on the iphone or how it connects (speaks) to my router.
Info:
iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1, slow wi-fi

I ordered the Defender for my Iphone 4 2 days ago and got it today - That's fast shipping (paid for 3 day shipping).I love this case, but having never owned one of these cases in the past, I was instantly overwhelmed with how to break it down to put the phone into it. The directions are pictures on the inside of the box and not very clear. This is my only complaint.I eventually figured it out and I can tell you it is the best case I have ever owned. It does add bulk, but it has a nice tactile feel to it and access to all ports. The incuded holster with belt clip is rock soild. If I knew how to upload pictures here, I would post some.

I have had an Otterbox Defender on all three of my iPhones and just love the case. Otterbox just upgraded their holster and gave the new one to existing customers that asked for it; GREAT customer service. The only thing that I didn't like about the case was the "oil slick" that you see under the screen. I've tried using baby powder and it worked for a while, but you had to keep it refreshed. Well I went to Apple and bought their Anti-glare screen protector and put it on the phone and inserted the phone in the Otterbox case and OMG no more "oil slick". Just thought you might like to know.

Got my Defender the other day. I noticed that when the phone is in the case the proximity sensor stops working. I take the phone out and it work fine. I emailed Otterbox and the guy said to clean the plastic window. Really?? you dont think I tried that before sending the email? I am going to try my brothers case to see if its the case. My brother told me that he had the proximity sensor issue before the case and now his works fine. My last step is to reload 4.0.1 but I have to figure out how to get a video off the phone first.

I have noticed recently that my Iphone 3GS only achieves speeds of about 6 Mbps when using the speedtest.net app to check. About 6 months ago I was achieving 12-14 Mbps. Also, my laptop (Though 802.11n) achieves 37 Mbps. I realise that my iphone 3GS only has b/g wifi technology, but surely it should be faster than it is, especially in relation to what it achieved before and also in relation to my laptop speeds?(I am running the latest OS)

iPhone 3GS, iOS 5.1.1

I just ordered this case and am hoping that it works well. I have the same series of case for my Nokia E72 and I really like it. I couldn't really find any reviews for the case on the iPhone 4 so I took a chance and just ordered it. Hopefully I made a good decision.Does anyone have a personal review on this case?

I found that the flash on the 4s would not work with many different cases. I can confirm that the flash does work OtterBox cases.

The wireless internet speeds on my 32GB iPhone 3GS are painfully slow.I have an Airport Extreme router and my MacBook Pro and iPad are both great. Here are averages from 10x Speedtest.net (or their app) runs:
MacBook Pro: 15 Mbps down, 1 Mbps up, 70ms Ping
iPad: 14 Mbps down, 1 Mbps up, 90ms Ping
iPhone 3GS: 3 Mbps down, 0.5 Mbps up, 600-700ms Ping
When I ran the speed tests, each device was the only one operating on the wireless network at the time. I also tried 2 other speedtest apps on my iPhone and they produced similar results.Do you think Apple will replace my iPhone, or will they just tell me it's operating normally and to deal with it?

Just got 2 new iPhones and both have issues with wifi. It shows that they are connected but it's either so very slow or says server not responding. I never had any problems with my 3GS and I know the wireless is working.

Email sending from home wifi has become almost impossible. It may take 2 hours to send. Receiving seems fine. It was okay until recently. I have reset the phone to no avail. Funny thing is it`s fine on 3g

I never had the issue with the 2G/3G/3GS, but once I got an iPhone 4 at launch and then the 4S, the issue has always been the same. It doesn't matter which network I connect to. Websites load incredibly slowly, apps download slowly, and it's impossible to stream anything or install an iOS update via wi-fi.
I connect to the same networks on my iPad 2 (as well as multiple laptops, both PCs and Macs) and it's always very, very fast.
The funny part to me is that the router is an AirPort Extreme, though I have the same issues with both Cisco and Netgear routers (haven't had any others to try).

I read a few posts yesterday about having slow WiFi speeds while Bluetooth is on. I couldn't figure why my speeds were so slow on WiFi at home and at my sister's house. Like barely over 1mbps. Then I saw the article , turned BT off and my speeds were over 25. I don't know if this is just an LG G3 issue or for others too after lollipop. I just got the LG Watch Urbane and this won't cut it if I want to keep this going. I use WiFi way more and will return the watch if I can't figure out a fix.

Now I would have thought my 9650 would be just as fast on the internet as my laptop is via wi-fi. WRONG! why is that? I have 3G also and its not very fast. Is it me? or just BB's in general?

Per the wifispeedtest, I have a signal strength of between 74 and 86%. Per a signal strength meter on my phone I have a signal of about -84 which to me is not that bad. I have a wilson signal booster in my house. It is approximately 30 feet from my computer and the phone itself is right there with the booster. I seem to get better service with it there. However, connection is slow and sometimes just goes away. I get 4g in and out where I live but it is spotty.Seems to me with such a signal, I should have better connection. Should I?

A couple months ago I've noticed slow WiFi download speeds which makes it impossible to watch YouTube in hd. Laptop's speeds are fine so I don't think its the router (both 2.4ghz).

When my phone is connected to WiFi I get at best .8 mps on a speed test and around 12 when connected to 4g. Every other device on the same router is working fine.

My s6 is slow on Wi-Fi. It want at first but after about two weeks it is a slug. No matter what Wi-Fi I use. Multiple factory resets, clearing the cache partition etc.. Speed test are good, 15-25ms ping, 35-60mbps but it takes about Minute to locate a network to test from..

Does anybody know if the Atrix 2 will fit in either the car dock or the HD dock with Otterbox's Commuter case? I'm guessing it doesn't, but I'd be pleasantly surprised if it did. It'd be nice to have a hard plastic case that also allowed for docking.

I've been using the otterbox for the Nokia Lumia 1020 for a while now and just recently the phone just "died." I'v tried the restore (volume down + power) and charged it. I think the phone overheated and died in the otterbox.

I like my e73 that i got a part of t-mobile upgrade with full price option. i like the fact that it quickly connected to the web etc usnig WiFi inside my house - i had some hiccups connecting at other places and checking my gmail using WAP. but a bigger problem, when i head out of my house - my e73 phone goes from wifi (pink hotspot tmobile circle) to 3g - i live in dallas fort worth metro area. i see many bars (horizontal lines stacked) to show a good 3g reception. after i have crossed the street corner, my cell phone is not able to go through the contacts book to call someone. as soon as i reboot the cell ph, it is all normal. making contacts, other folders run on memory card memory, did not fix it. i have hte latest patches - all got thro wifi.
