I just tried this on the Motofrenzy v0.4 lets see if it does something

Will post again to let you know later if it improves or not.

It seems to be better? Internet did not disconnect uptil now... Been using it from last night until now...

Will see the next few days

Will this work for Wifi on the Telus 3.11?

Try it, please. And then let us know, whether it helped. Thanks.

After about 5 days of use I must say internet never disconnected. Strange that not a lot of people are interested in this fix especially the ones using the Froyo build...

Thanks for this fix

thanks for info,

this fix not work for me..

the value always replace by my gsm provider dns everytime i reboot my phone..or switch back from wifi to gsm..

i checked it using app "ipdroid" in the market

so i am using below command manualy if my dns change by my provider:

setprop net.rmnet0.dns1 8.8.8.8
setprop net.rmnet0.dns2 8.8.4.4

setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8
setprop net.dns2 8.8.4.4

or you can create sh script and put above command as .sh file..and run it manually using #sh

harunjo: That's not how it's supposed to work. I've thought that I've explained it on that page clearly enough.
The values should get replaced by the provider's DNS servers and that's perfectly OK.
The intention is not to use custom defined DNS addresses, but to ensure the creation of these DNS properties at all. Because that fact in itself can prevent the non-functioning internet. That works for cases when these properties are (under certain circumstances) not created during system start-up (nor later) at all. Which is the bug that some users are experiencing after the 2.1 bugfix upgrade (2.36/2.38 etc.).
The DNS numbers I've chosen are the Google DNS servers, but it actually could be any random numbers. I simply didn't want to put there some nonsensical made-up numbers. But I actually could do that, and the fix would still be perfectly functional.

@nadlabak...i c...thanks..for your explanation..i understand now..

i notice..my dns is more stable with this tweak..even with dns value replaced again by my provider..

btw..1 question..how to force custom dns like opendns or google dns parameters to our milestone?
