wifi connection limited or lost

any one here encountered lost of wifi connection or limited wifi. From what i gathered from my research online, when u used the build in bluetooth to connect with your devices such as mouse, the bluetooth rf interfere with the wifi signal hence resulting in lost of wifi connection.

once i disable the bluetooth, the wifi strength was excellent.

Wondering should i bring it back to ms service centre.

I updated to windows 8.1 then I can't download apps from windows store. The apps just show 'pending' for download but never took off from there onwards. Anyone have this problem?:(

Initially yes, specifically FB. But after I rebooted my Surface, it proceeded with the download/installation.

I updated my rt from rt 8.1 preview to rt 8.1 rtm on the first day of launch. No issues so far, in fact it became better. I also updated my other 2 laptop from 8 pro to 8.1 pro. No issues but become better also.

Those facing the apps issue can follow the below link. I followed Steven_B's steps and downloaded the troubleshooter and my problem is solved. Once the Surface rebooted, click on appstore then let it run in background for awhile. After that try downloading some apps to make sure all is ok.

Can't download Store apps, sometimes the Store doesn't load - Microsoft Community

hand writing is equally having issue too =x , i cant seem to write some non english words like "oni" etc.

Try writing letter by letter. It'll take a few days for Windows to learn your handwriting. Teach it by using correction.

I am on RT 8.1. IE browser seriously slow. Always waiting for a few seconds for page to load. Even go back page needs few seconds. Frustrated just browsing internet. Even my samsung S2 browser have superior browsing experience. Seriously worst than iOS and android.

Downloaded three party browser just improved the speed abit. Didn't really help much.

Even my lousy LG phone Dual Core Cortex A9 1GHz has faster browsing experience. I seriously think it is poor Windows RT Microsoft Browser implementation. Tegra 3 is Quad Core 1.6Ghz each.
