I bought my Iconia Tab 8 'Tablet two days ago. But from the first I used it, there has been an wifi problem. My tablet keeps disconnected regardless where I use it I've tried everything I could. The only way I can use wifi is to stay home, connect my own router, use static ip, and still need to REFRESH A LOT. Please help.

 

Ive tried:

Going to different places 

Rebooting my router

Rebooting my tablet

Turning off disconnection during sleep

Turning on airplane mode

Using static ip

...

You name it.

    Check to see if it will stay connected if you keep the tablet very close to the router, say a meter or so away... If that works we're looking at signal strength issues, such as a loose antenna wire, if it make no difference then it is more likely to be hardware.
