i found an issue recently when using wireless 5ghz at home with note3, it always says delay and slow network and sometime disconnect itself when using on my M1 200mb fiber broadband.

It works fine on my HTC butterfly S and Xperia Z. I tried changing the 5ghz dual band settings on my Asus AC router didn't help somehow i think note3 doesn't like 5ghz band.

No problem with 2.4Ghz band.

Anyone have this issue?

Updated my note 3 to kitkat last nite and now facing unstable 4G connection now, auto disconnect then connect again after a few seconds. Tried changing to 3G signal, no such issue. Called Singtel and Samsung on this and they mentioned that there will be a new patch coming soon.

I have no issue using 5Ghz wifi signal at home with Note 3, although mine is SingNet 200Mbps fiber broadband. Not sure if it has anything to do with it.

I have this issue in JB4.3 already. Keep telling me my wifi is weak.

I found out that my Note 3 wifi chip dun seems to like 5GHz Control Channel of 149, 153, 157, 161 and Auto. Once I changed my Asus Router's 5GHz Control Channel to either one of 36, 40, 44 or 48 then my issue when away.

On S4, it was ok. Very strange....

Just update asap! No major issues.

Those tiny issues are 3rd party apps related and apps will be updated very soon accordingly including a fix update from Samsung. ;)

Kitkat makes your Note 3 flies likes a bird ba....! :s22:

The new transition and windows effects are breath taking! :s22:

If you have not updated, please consider holding on.

External SD access is restricted. I have some apps that won't work as they need access to external SD e.g. Sygic.

I have the same problem with saving DATA from all the apps after the upgrade. Wrote to Samsung Support, and they claim that my firmware upgrade was corrupted and told me to hard reset to factory defaults.

this is even after I told them that several people on the internet are reporting same issues with saving DATA to the External SD card
