You have an option in settings to change that. You must have that option turned on.

[Q] Wifi Dependability

Hey guys, I am going to try the 200mb data plan mainly because I am usually around wifi all day. Is the wifi signal dependable? Will I need to type in a password every time? If so, will it still work seamlessly under a more secure wifi connection (University of Michigan's wifi network)? Thanks

Can't scan for any new wifi network

Hi all
All of the sudden, my nexus 4 doesn't seem to scan for any wifi network. I have made sure I turned off the aeroplane mode, turn the WiFi on, and see that wifi is switched on, but it just doesn't scan, not even when I click scan, as no any scanning message popped up. So basically I can not connect to any new network, e.g hotel wifi or airport wifi. I have tried to forget some saved but unused wifi in my phone, as well as reboot.
The strange thing is, the wifi itself seems to work, because I can connect to wifi network that it has already remembered.
I use CarbonROM, and has been fine for a year
Can anyone please help?
Many thanks in advance

Wifi keeps disconnecting?

Hey, guys I just got my Pixel 2.
I connected it wifi but it keeps losing it. Only if I reset my router it will keep the connection for a while, but somehow when
I get to work or in the morning the same issue appears again. It connects but when I go to an app which requires wifi it drops.
I tried to change the channel but didn't work as well.
Restarting the phone won't help either. I also don't want to factory reset it since I want to keep all my data etc. I don't want to go all that bs.
Maybe I should have stuck with a new iPhone after all. Sorry for that comment, but I'm really frustrated
I don't want to give it back or some ****, I just want to fix it easily so I can move on. I hope I get some advice here.

this can help:
phone ::: Go to setting > wifi > advance > If there is Freq option then change it to 2.4Ghz
router (in case no option on phone) ::: go to Wifi setting of your router and disable 5Ghz. I can help more If I know model of your wifi router
:good:
I'm having the same exact problem as OP. I thought for a second I wrote the post. Would love to see if there's a solution. I don't see the option to change frequency in wifi settings. And this issue for me occurs on different WiFi networks.. so it's not just one router. Ugh!
Exactly the same issue here, which is what has lead me to this thread. It often happens that my phone switches to mobile data suddenly while working absolutely fine on Wi-Fi. I have tried almost every basic solution but condition remains the same. Also during that time it stop showing me my (saved) Wi-Fi in the Wi-Fi network available, while at the same time my same Wi-Fi is connected to all the other devices in my house. This needs a fix.
still no fix

ya my problem is still there. This phone is utter dog ****, to be honest. Still waiting for an update, but now I know..never buy a pixel again
Is Bluetooth on? This is what is causing my WiFi to be very unstable......

General leaving WiFi and then onto network issue

Now let me start off with this happens when I was on Verizon and now on ATT and with several different Samsung phones. I have an S22 Ultra now.
Really not into rooting anymore but might get back into it to run better roms and take over Android Auto. I hate AA it's too pushy taking over everything. I stopped using it. I'm old fashioned and not taking calls on my truck I would rather use the bluetooth headset.
Sorry...
Ok onto the issue. So you sitting in the house hotel whatever on WiFi you leave and then phone goes to the network automatically. I have no internet just sits and try's. I can fix this by rebooting the phone or go into airplane mode and out. Then all good to go.
Makes me to never use WiFi on my phone ever. Kinda annoying.
I'm I going nuts or is this an issue across the board?
.
Reset your network settings.
Why go through the trouble of resetting your network?
Go into Settings -> Apps -> Andoid Auto
DISABLE THE DAMN THING. I HATE ANDROID AUTO. It's what I did.

This has nothing to do with Android auto. I was asking about going from wifi to cell network and no internet.
and resetting network settings is an option like @pjaysnowden said.
Thanks
ok so I reset my network settings and will report back after a few days. I was having issues with my bluetooth devices disconnecting all the time and that seems to be better now. So we will see.
Ok well resetting the network and losing all my saved wifi data was a waste of time as I have found resetting the network data never fixes anything.
So still if I'm on Wifi and then leave the wifi then the phone goes to cellular automatically I have no internet unless I power down and back on or airplane mode on and off.
This all started on several different phones and with ATT or Verizon when this 5G crap rolled out.
If I force the phone on 4g all fixed does not do this. Very Strange.
My fix never get on Wifi. LOL
.
Sorry if this was mentioned before, have you tried messing with the "Intelligent Wi-Fi" Settings?
Settings -> Connections -> Wi-Fi
Tap the 3 Dots in the (upper-right and select Intelligent Wi-Fi.
Make your adjustments accordingly

Don't see much in there that would help with cellular network internet connecting when moving off wifi? I did look though.
I'm not having issues with wifi at all. It's the cellular network when going off the wifi.
Ok I just forced the phone off of 5G and use 4G LTE only on ATT. Network is faster and no longer have the leaving wifi issue. As for Android Auto. I removed it form my phone altogether. It's not worth the hassle. It also it not ready for prime time. LOL
5G is not ready for prime time yet... It suxs
Hi, is this happening to you with a specific wifi network or is the same with all of them? Is your WiFi signal strong when this happens?

No this happens no matter what wifi network I'm on. Really a PITA. I switched over to 4G and have not had this issue. Like I said. Did this on Verizon and ATT and different phones. I using the S22 Ultra now.
Thanks

Question Anyone having s23+ wifi issues?

My galaxy s23+ is not connecting to my router's 5 ghz band.. tried every router. I noticed after i reseted the phone, it connects easily to my home wifi 5ghz band when i restart my phone. Then if i go outside and use another wifi then come home and try to connect the 5ghz band. It doesn't connect until i restart the phone. While phones from realme or redmi don't have any of this kind of problem. Its simply a wifi issue. Does anyone have a solution? Its frustrating to restart the phone everytime i come home. I even searched google but there are no fix.
Try putting it into airplane instead of a reboot, toggle off/on.
Clear system cache.

Don't go to the service centre. They are usually a bunch of jokers.
Have you tried 'Reset Network Settings'?

You might as well do a factory reset too if the network reset fails. The service center will do that anyway if set in for repairs...
I am seeing a similar problem. Sometimes my phone doesn't load anything. Turning off wifi and connecting again helps. Another thing I noticed is that when I switch rooms my older oneplus 8T would connect seamlessly to a strong wifi within the house. S23+ isn't doing that. Suddenly video will buffer and I see that it's connected to wifi that has low coverage in that room and then I have to turn off/on or manually connect to the correct wifi

You have to enable Intelligent WiFi to have the network switched automatically.
You have 2 WiFi at home?

'Intelligent WiFi' is already enabled. I have a wifi extender that has a different wifi name because I made a typo while setting it up. OP8T used to connect between the extender and the main wifi smoothly but with s23+ I have to intervene
