I just bought a new gigabyte mika m3 and it keeps losing the wifi signal from my router.
I have to restart my phone or the router to get it working again, restarting the wifi on the phone wont do it since it only reveals the router and cant connect to it when i type in the password. My sister also has this problem on her android, and my dad with his windows phone cant even connect to the wifi. Im grateful to any help

if the router a year or more old. plug in a pc into it and check the router firmnware see if it out of date. if it is try updating it and seeing if it helps. if your in a zone with a lot of other routers..check to see if your unit on the same channel as others. if it is try moving to another one that not used. also make sure wifi has password on the wep/wpa so you dont have leachers. also if it a comcast or verizion unit make sure guest wifi is off so it not overloaded with leacher. if the unit older then a year. turn it off and blow it out with canned air or a compressor. see if it overheating.
