Poor Wifi

Does anyone have poor Wifi reception with the Xperia Z1

I have various phones in the house and they all show 3 or 4 bars while the Xperia shows only one?

I have the same exact issue. I have a WiFi router in the room next door (~2-3meters away) and my Z1 drops the connection ( or it has one bar signal strenght).

Comnpared to my SGS2 the signal is -77dBm (galaxy) vs - 60dBm(xperia) !

I also have this problem. All my other devices have better reception. Can this bad reception be improved by software updates or is this a hardware problem?

Indeed, have this phone now for more then a year.

And it just keeps on letting me down due to the poor wifi connection.

Everything else on this phone is simply superb, but the wifi each time makes me feel like i was cheated with the purchase...

Is there anyone who has found a way to improve this terrible reception issue?

Would be great!!!
