I've developed a Windows phone app which consumes some data from WCF Service. My app seems to be very slow in Wi-Fi on comparing it with 3G or LAN. I'm a new bee to both Windows phone app dev and WCF. I've verified a number of variables on WiFi bandwidth and connection. Wi-Fi looks good, but the app still slows down. So not sure where the problem is? Do I need to add any configuration to my service to avoid this? Or do I need to check my device? Can anyone help me to find out the cause?
I have had a similar issue. Seems like the 3G data and WiFi do not work smoothly when they're both turned on. Disable 3G data and only enable WiFi and vice versa.
This issue appeared for me after the 7.10.8107.79 update.
This bug have been reported to Microsoft and they are looking into the issue.

I am building react native app with expo and I'm currently using public wifi because I'm traveling.
On the bus and in the hostel's wifi I've experienced an issue:
- Phone can't connect to Expo running on Laptop (same LAN wifi)
After trying many times to connect using the wifi, and also trying to see if Windows firewall has something to do with it, I finally found out what might be the issue and a temporary workaround.
Issue:
Some routers have a configuration called AP Isolation, that might be activated on the router/wifi of the public place you're using, to avoid someone hack into someone else's computer. So basically no device on the same network can communicate with the other.
Temporary workaround:
The only way I've got this working was by enabling a Wifi Hotspot on my Android phone and connecting the laptop to it. This means I'm using my phone's 4G connection for internet too. Expo seems like it needs to access the Internet and if you don't have data won't work.
The other way might work is if your Windows or Mac computer is able to create a virtual access point. So instead of connecting laptop to phone, you do it the other way around.
Hope this helps someone!
You should be able to run on a virtual device via expo. On my Macbook I run on iOS if doing work in a place where I do not have internet but on a PC you should be able to run the Android Emulator.
While this might not provide the not intuitive way of doing things as you'll be using a virtual device instead of a physical one, it still is very quick and responsive. Just know that animations may not be as smooth.
I fly frequently and running on virtual devices has enabled me to work when otherwise it would be impossible.
I have very interesting problem and I dont have idea, how to solved it. I have WCF application - WCF client is my Windows Phone 8 and WCF host is my tablet with Windows 8. When tablet is in charger, everything works right, but when I disconnect charger, WCF starts be slower and fails. I tried to run this WCF host on different devices and it worked alright, but i need to run the WCF host on this tablet without charger. How to do it?
I solved it. Problem was that the wifi hotspot was created from my laptop and for some reason the tablet didnt like it.... When I created wifi from router, it worked fine.
When I click the send button for sending my app in Application Loader, it is waiting for a response (sent API usage to iTunes Connect, waiting for response) and waiting without error. I am getting a message "the network connection was lost" after a couple minutes. I tried another network connection but the issue was not resolved. Could the issue be on iTunes network?
It should just work if you quit Application Loader, then re-open it.
To submit an application to iTunes Connect, your Mac always need to be up to date, or you will be able to get errors. To do this click on Apple's logo > Software Update. I was having the same problem, and it solved for me. Cheers =)
I had to force quit and the re-open to make it work.
A normal restart did not work, nor did a restart of my Mac. Very weird.
Make sure your iTunes Connect user has admin privileges. I had it set at Technician and everything looked like it was working but it would hang on the "Sending API Usage to iTunes".
None of the above suggestions work for me. Likely the real cause is physical and related how Application Loader is using the internet. I have ADSL connection with a Netgear modem/router assigning each device at home a fixed IP address according to the mac address of the network interface of each device. I had noticed that when Application Loader is uploading, my Windows PC could not connect to the internet. However, if in Mac mini I use Safari doing various things like watching video, my Windows PC can access internet.
Even stranger, when Application Loader is uploading, the modem/router could easily lost connection to the internet, as I could see from the LED lights of the modem. The connection is lost randomly at any progress of uploading the 20 MB file.
So I had turned off Windows PCs, iPads, iPhones and Android device at home, so Mac mini is the only device using the Internet, the Application Loading has finally been able to upload the app successfully in one go.
My guess is, my home phone line has some noise, and Application Loader is using the internet aggressively particularly the up link, so stressing out the modem, then causing other devices like my Windows PC lost connection, not even able to resolve host.
So my working solution is to make Mac be the only device using the Internet, given that the internet connection is already in poor condition with noise, near the edge of losing connection.
I have a native iPhone app that connects to a client machine via sockets. The connection works over WIFI but does not work over 3G.
Does anyone have ideas what the issue could be?
Thank you.
UPDATE: The client machine is not on the same network as the iPhone.
Is this client machine within the same network as the iPhone? Then you can access it over Wifi, but would need a proxy over 3G. Just a guess.
The issue is that some cellular networks block certain ports. This is why it worked over WIFI but not 3g. One of the reasons why it is better to use web services.
I have a piece of software I have written that talks to a web service over it's Wifi connection on a Casio WinCE handheld.
Unfortunately the Wifi network and the network created by WMDC (or ActiveSync) to host the debugger connection clash, they are both 192.168.55.0/24. So I can't have them both connected at the same time.
Does anybody know if you can reconfigure WMDC to use a different address range?
I've hunted through the registry but can't see anything obvious, and Google is not turning up anything useful.
Thanks,
James.
Is the development PC on teh same network as the WiFi connection? If so, I'd abandon ActiveSync/WMDC altogetehr and just use ethernet debugging over the same connection that it's using for the web service calls.
