UT can't detect my wifi network

Asked by mhb

hello
i can't find my wifi network using the designated option in phone settings. sometimes (1%, maybe less) it randomly finds it but if i reboot, loses it again. it always finds all the other networks around me but can't find mine. is there a preference in finding networks ?
my wifi security is [WPA/WPA2 PSK,TKIP+AES] but i've also tried [WPA2 PSK only,AES]
i've tried trusty r79,saucy proposed r101 and trusty proposed r108 so far.
i don't think i should report this as a bug ... no one else seems to have it.

changed the channel and it worked . apparently UT can't connect to CH12 & CH 13 but 1-11 are ok

really sorry i should've checked this first.
