Re: Intrepid WiFi problems

Ok, after sending in my phone to Samsung twice for the wifi issues, I've pretty much confirmed that it is some flaw in the phone. The new phone sent back to me did exactly the same thing my old one did.. and that's disconnect and usually lock up wifi until a soft reset. The more data that is sent, the more likely the issue is to happen. For example, if I just browse the web it could last hours.. load up yahoo msgr and aim, maybe an hour.. but load up emule or bittorrent, a lockup is guarrenteed within a few minutes. lol So I've decided to switch entirely to bluetooth for any tethering. It works very nicely with wmwifirouter.
At some point a few years down the line, I might want to switch to the Touch Pro 2 being as how it looks like the only other doable option for my $12/mo Sprint plan. lol Can anyone confirm or deny if it too has flakey wifi with wmwifirouter?
