That was the first time I've ever tested something like this. Otherwise there have already been a lot of posts about the phones that I had, with the U20 G5 I'm probably one of the first to write something about it.
In any case, I am absolutely thrilled with what actually works!
The first thing I did was look how long it took to copy. For this I copied a 3472448 kb file (Win10 x64 DVD,) over and called the network adapter in the task manager. The window that shows the copying process closed after 15 seconds, in the task manager you could see that it took a total of 1 minute 10 seconds to copy the almost 3.5 GB in the background, think that's not too bad either.
Then I wanted to test the range (my router is an AVM 7590) and left the house to do this. After 50 meters the next houses came and the connection status was still "fair", surfing the Internet was no different - mobile network was of course disabled! So I went into the basement to get reinforced concrete in between, which is a little more difficult for the WiFi, the walls are normal stone walls, but here too nothing has changed in the display, I don't have a place in the entire house where full deflection is. The network connection cannot be killed ... : D
edit: the copied file was transfered over WiFi, and the rate in Taskmanager was shown between 550 and 620 KBit/s, to verify I copied a second file with 7,35 GB, which took 2:20
wifi works great, medium distance, regular.
I use the wifi hotspot with android radio in the car and that's fine.

Looks like 5ghz wifi is a downer. Keeps dropping connection during speed test.

I had problems with my TA-1012. WiFi kept dropping and wouldn't connect after that.
One solution was to clear de cache of Google Play Store and then restarting the device.
After installing others apps, the issue returned. Somehow, my router was rejecting my device.
I had to set fixed IP to keep the connection alive.
Now it's fine, but I don't know for how long. Also, I still hadn't the chance to test on other Wifis across the city.
Wifi is as good as non existant after Pie update. i got a fiber connection with dual band router and the phone isn't able to find the 5GHz network at all while being super slow on 2.4GHz (0.08 Mbps according to speedtest.net )
am completely stock still out of the box
any1 has this ?

This is my second Huawei and the WiFi strength is definitely lower than other phones. I found this a problem on my mate 10. Time will tell how much of a problem this is for me. It only happens when further away from router so won't affect anyone in a smaller house. Wil do some comparison s tomorrow with my HTc u11+ which I know has a better strength at distance.
Major issues!
I love the phone yet there a few major issues. WiFi signal is so poor that it constantly switches to data even when I am standing 1 meter from my router! I noticed that when I leave a place where I was connected to WiFi and the phone switches to data, when I am back it just won't connect to any WiFi. Besides GPS is a complete mess, it won't work with running apps for instance and WhatsApp quick-reply from the dropdown menu won't work at all. Any ideas/solutions?
No major issues here., In fact the range, signal and download speeds are much better compared to my previous Samsung.. my router is from Huawei as well so I guess they work nice together.

P20 pro model that I'm using was tested with 177Mbps upload speed, using speedtest app. This was in a public place, as my home connection is only 0.5Mbps for uploads. Google Photo cloud was effectively using only 70Mbps (not sure if Huawei or Google's fault). At home, the phone uploads images, but 4K video (even small 100MB files) don't even upload. One has to repeatedly press upload and restart Photos app to attempt to get video uploaded. So, either P20 pro or Google is currently creating a problem with 0.5Mbps upload lines. With an old Samsung S6, I could always upload automatically at home - it just took some time.
Signal strength appears good. No major issues so far, compared to cheaper Lenovo tablets and Archos type phones - which often cannot connect to WiFi without a perfect signal...

My WIFi performances are identical to other WiFi devices I own. GPS is probably better than my previous Samsung S7, both as lock-speed and as capability to keep it locked in bad situation (between very tall buildings, or very close to mountains
WiFi and hotspot working well. No issues .
V 131 (India )
Wifi strong (Tmo) not problem with GPS. google maps loads fast.
I come from Galaxy S7 Edge with andrid 6.0.1.
So I tested wi-fi strenght and the difference between the 2 phones is great for Huawei P20 Pro.
With galaxy S7 my throughput was maximum 3-4mb/sec with the phone closely to the router. And 600-900kb/s far from router.
Huawei reach 10mb/s both closely and next router. Goes down to 2-3mb/s far from the router.
Great difference !
I actually have really strong wifi, coming from i7 that was spotty here and now I'm rocking great coverage
Extremely disappointed by my P20 Pro Wifi - when to a guest house, abroad over the last weekend - 3 nights - 2 days - I was unable to use the WiFi for some reason.
All other devices - laptop, iPhoneSE, Huawei Y3 and Xiomi Mi5 had no problem whatsoever, only on my P20 Pro I was getting all the time that "Internet is not available on this WiFi", and only seldomly it was available and I was able to browse some few minutes and then again - internet is becoming unavailable.
It drove me crazy!
I did try all tricks in the book - forget wifi, enable/disable wifi, WiFi+ enable/disable, phone reboot, clear phone cash even, set IP and DNS manually as per the settings I got from my laptop - still the same!
In the end I gave up, bought a big mobile data bundle and switched off the WiFi.
Attached a screenshot telling me I have to speak to the network admin.
Only thing I thought of but couldn't find the option is to set the WiFi to be 2.4 Ghz only, does someone know how that is done?
Back home - all is back to normal - both home and work WiFi is working fine.
Anybody with similar experience? Did you manage to resolve it? I was on the first Pie (and got an update yesterday).
I have had really good performance with the P20 Pro on my 5Ghz wifi network.
................
I have the p20 lite and theres definitely a difference in signal strength between my phone and other phones put next to each other. The mobile network reception is lower, to a point where the other phones get good signal and I have none. Same with the WiFi. Is there a way to make the strength to receive better?

Interesting, I just got EMUI 10.0 for my P20 pro and ran a wifi benchmark. It seems like wifi is about 20% more efficient than with EMUI 9.1 for me.

I'd give it 10/10.
i live in the 4th floor of an apartment n I get a decent signal even outside in like 50 meters away from home
First phone I use which could actually use my internet line completely but it disconnects sometimes from my 5 GHz network, can't connect again but it works on 2.4 GHz again. I don't know if this is Android's fault or the router's fault or both.
Extremely unhappy with the 8.1 (TA-1119). Wifi keep disconnectiong from some APs - interesetingly I have dozen of the same APs in my company and some work some dont (same network). Doesnt happen with any other phone.
Also - bluetooth doesnt work with samsung galaxy watch, previos phone worked fine.
Hope it is a ROM problem and not the hardware problem.
Same problem for me with a dual AP setup
WiFi constently disconnects when the phone is in multiple AP environment
Contact with Nokia care is useless
Other phones and devices are all fine ...
Strength is not good, disconnect sometime.

Don't know about others, but good for me and same like my pervious device.
I had problems with the wifi, it showed not enough strength although other devices in same room could receive without problems. I took it to the store and they gave me a new one. Even with the new I still have problems with the wifi connection
I am noticing that I cannot reach the speed specified by the manufacturer. I did some speed tests and it's just 24Mbit/s. My Moto G4 Plus was much better, with my wife's cell phone that is a Moto G5 I can reach the maximum contracted speed that is 35mbit/s
I'm a little disappointed with this performance. Using the 5Ghz Wifi network I was able to reach 33Mbit/s which is practically the contracted value.
WiFi transfer rate is very unstable and low.
In the description of the connection informs that the network speed is 72Mbit/s
May be my router some incompatibility, I will do tests on other networks. At work we have a link of 300Mbit/s, my old cell phone used to reach 75Mbit/s Down and Up.
It seems that the problem is some incompatibility between the router and the phone. I tested here at the company where I work and the routers are Cisco and the speed is normal, just like my old Moto G4 Plus.

I don't think it's special in any way, I was getting about the same range from my Oneplus 6, so dont think that the special wifi antennas they advertised work in a better/more stable way. Having wi-fi 6 is nice though.
The wifi and signal strength is really superb i had a Redmi Note 7 Pro before and hardly catched 2 tower in wifi but with this device it's full always and never disconnects also there is dual wifi acceleration so that you can use both the wifi bands on your device at the same time(2.5Ghz/5Ghz) also hyoerfusion works great on the app's which don't have only one server such as youtube (as it constantly switches if ping is low so not usable for PUBG if you'r internet ping is low) while in other apps you can connect both wifi and also SIM DATA together.
Compared with Huawei p 40 pro.rog 3 WiFi is weakness
Has anyone been able to get WiFi link speed over 1200 mbps? It seems it won't link any higher even tho the router supports up to 3,8Gbps..
Not able to test cause I got some slow router but curious what router gives you those speeds???
I need one of those

Hehe, I bought myself the Xiaomi AX9000 router. I already have the Xiaomi AX3600 also. Both seems to give me the same speed but the AX9000 seems to have better coverage
