Once in awhile my tab s2 keeps dropping the WiFi connection. I did a quick search and noticed samsung has a history of wifi problems pro, S, 3 4 .
No bluetooth, just wifi
Is this a common thing?
My other connection that use 5Ghz AC work fine. 2x Nexus 6P 5Ghz AC, Nexus 5 5Ghz N, Laptop 5Ghz AC, a bunch of 2.4Ghz G'so
Samsung Galaxy 9.7 tab S2 - Stock 5.1.1
I experience same sort of issue, even with strong signals. And sometimes it doesn't even wanna connect to any but restart fixes it most or time.
Same issue for me
Same. 2.4 no issue.
No probs here. I have 5Ghz and 2.4 at home and both connect fine. Maybe it is a combination of Samsung with certain types of routers/ access points?

I was able to fix mine. There is a setting in WiFi MORE to Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep
i am having the same issue, it's only the 5Ghz that keeps dropping at irregular intervals.
Wifi is always on and i have tried a different router.
Any suggestions are very welcome!
Same issue prior to upgrading to APJ1.
None of my devices has ever had dropping problems with the WiFi (iPhone, iPad, S6 Edge+, notebook and a wifi extender). But since I bought the S2, it is randomly dropping connection, with no pattern.
Which model did you buy?
SM-T719
It's the latest 8" with qualcomm
Yes I'm having the same issue in the T713 model but not in the T813 model, both are th Qualcomm model
Im having the same issue with mine. I called samsung support and they were no help.
Same issue with sm-t713

Same issue with SM-T813, found a temporary fix.
Just replaced my SM-T810 with a SM-T813, and ran in same wifi drop issue. My girlfriend and her SM-T813 ran in the same issue too. It happen randomly from 3-4 times per hour to one time in 2 hours. I foud it only occurs on 2.4ghz network connected in N. It happen to me on 3 differents routers, DIR-868L REV B 2.04, DIR-868L Advanded Tomato, DIR-628, and Asus RT-AC68U stock with latest firmware. If i configure the 2.4ghz band to G only, no issue, also, the 5ghz band got no issues at all. Hope this help your issues while waiting for a fix from Samsung.
Thanks for the tip. I can confirm that 5ghz wifi works perfectly. Hopefully samsung will fix soon.

Valid information, ndompierre!!
I´m situated in Germany and bought a S2 8.0 (SM-T710, Android 5.0.2) last week.
One of my use cases is watching movies which are stored on my NAS. With my "old" Nexus 7 (2013) everything worked like a charm.
But with the S2 I ran into the issue that the movies stucked once in a while.
At first I thought it had something to do with the apps I am using, BSPlayer and MX Player Pro (which work fine with the Nexus).
I even downloaded VLC Player but the same behaviour occured.
Then I downloaded the movie locally to my Tab and deactivated WiFi. Bingo..played without any hiccup. Proof enough that everything is fine with the apps.
So I googled a bit and came across this WiFi issue others also have. After I followed your proposal and changed the 2.4GHz band in my router from option "802.11n+b+g" to "802.11b+g" everything works fine again. No dropout during the whole streamed movie.
So I hope, too, that Samsung will come up with a WiFi fix soon.
Interesting. I've noticed that since updating to MM, my T810 seems to frequently switch to my other wifi networks on me. My preferred SSID is 2.4GHz N mode. I never catch it happening when I'm using the tablet, but after going to sleep and waking it up it literally seems always to be on the "wrong" network if I've previously switched it to the "right" one (not sure if it hops off the other 2.4GHz ones as well). I'll stick wiht 5GHz for the time being!
Saw Spotify dropping out a few times this weekend while connected to a wifi Hotspot. Haven't had a chance to test it at home yet. T817W model running Marshmallow.

I bought the T719 LTE 8.0 inch Version last week and also hab wifi connection problems, but only when in airplane mode. My Router is am fritzbox 7490 at 5ghz. Currently without any reason the wifi connection is stable. When in LTE mode the wifi was always stable.
I have the same problem too. (T719 LTE model) I was wondering would the radio mode consume battery faster instead of airplane mode?
P.S. I still have problem but i am on airplane mode. Have not tried yet radio mode
disconnecting wifi
I have the t819 bought it last week constantly dropping wifi had the s3 tablet before never happened also have ipad and does not happen. Sent samsung an email but still waiting for reply
My T813 does this, but only on battery when optimization is on. When it's on the charger, or I turn power optimization off, it stays connected pretty solidly. I suspect a fault in the power management.
It is kind of annoying, as I have some clients that have to be restarted every time the network drops.

How do you turn optimization off? Battery optimization can be turned off on my tablet, but it has to be done app by app (one at a time)
Hi
I received my 3T yesterday. I am having issues with WIFI
WiFi network drops frequently and the mobile data is used for some time and then WIFI is connected again. See attached .. This happens even when moving between rooms of my house
I think this happens when the mobile wifi changes from 5GHZ to 2.4GHZ when I move away from router
I have updated to OxygenOS 3.5.4 as soon as I received the mobile
The signal strength of the 3T is also very low
I have a 2 year old moto X 2014 and the moto beats the 3T at every place in my house
The signal strength and the wifi speed both are better in moto X
I have checked at various places
I have wiped the cache. Tried changing 2.5GHz to 5GHz
Changed Channels.. Tried all the things that I could find on the internet
But still problems
So is this a hardware problem and should I ask for a replacement? Or is this some Software bug which can be resolved
My router is ASUS RTN66U and a lot of other devices work seamlessly on that router and hence pls dont suggest to change the router
Awaiting replies
Regards

I think this is a bug related to 3.5.4. On 3.5.3 my WiFi worked a lot better, but LTE Advanced is faster on 3.5.4. You can try a custom rom or downgrading, there's also a leaked OxygenOS 4 rom out.
Do you have wifi issues now when u have 3.5.4
I don't want to install new Roms. As I may have to return it in case this is a faulty piece
I'm having the exact same problem. I stream a lot. Very annoying when music video or gaming gets disconnect so often. My Galaxy Note 4, & s6 works fine.

yes, it started on 3.5.4.
here is a screencap of the issue
You can see in the screen cap that the mobile is connected to ASUS5 (5GHZ)
Then as I move away from the router the signal weakens and then the wifi disconnects .. and then it connects to ASUS (2.4GHZ)
Earlier it was connecting to ASUS but with a exclamation mark (without internet).. I waited for 15 minutes but it did not connect
Then I would connect if I switch off and on the wifi toggle
After that I did a factory reset and now you can see the screencap
It connects after a minor delay.. So is this alright
My other mobile - Moto X 2014 simply switches instantly from 5GHz to 2.4GHz and vice versa.. not even half of second is taken on moto x
Give the device a static IP use 2.4 network as it's more of a long range band. I tend to use the 5 band for stationary stuff. My WiFi works fine but all my home devices have a static IP.
This are the things that I did
1) Factory reset
2)Use Legacy DHCP client (under Developer options)
3)Disable Smart Wifi switcher (Advanced Wifi setting)
4)Static IP
This seems to solve the disconnection issue .. I still feel the wifi signal is weak compared to my other devices
Hope this helps someone facing the problem
regards
I had the same Problem on OOS 3.5.3/3.5.4/4.0 at the OnePlus 3T.
I tried every Solution on the internet and nothing worked for me.
But after i looked into my Router-Setup i saw the DHCP Section where i selected 'Renew DHCP every Day'
>>> Screenshot what i mean - imgur.com/KakQX3i.png <<<
After that it works perfect. No connection-issues anymore.
mine is already one day..
I thought it was resolved... but again I noticed slow wifi speeds
thinking of replacement
haven't had the phone long enough to experience disconnects but wifi is definitely slow...
I have a 200mbps connection, getting 160mbps on desktop with LAN cable, 110mbps on my OPO, only 50mbps on my OP3T....
all tested through speedtest with the same server location.
OP3T is chinese version flashed with oxygenos 4.0.1
edit: later tested again with OP3T getting up to 90mbps but still 20 less than the OPO
I have same issus like lajay. The Galaxy S7 from my wife works perfekt in the same Network!
I use wifi network with repeater at home.
OOS 5.0.1, now with original kernel.
wifi refuses to switch automatically to better signal when going from one room to another.
Even when there is no signal at all, wifi stays on channel.
Previously it was working well, but with 5.0.1 not working?
I have to manually switch wifi off and on again to get best wifi connection.
Is this normal behavior of 5.0.1, or something wrong with my settings?
Thanks for advice.
My phone stop auto reconnect to wifi after some hours

same here on my s10e and also cell signal is awfull aswell... seems to be all connectivity on the phones maybe an update will come before 2020 lol
During the Pie beta on the S9 we voiced several complaints to Samsung, one being the weak cell signal and another a wifi problem. On my S9 and now the S10 if I move out of my 5Ghz range wifi will drop to 2.4GHz. When I'm back in range of 5Ghz the phone stays locked to 2.4GHz until I cycle wifi on and off. I have a wifi mesh system and I'm almost always in range of 5Ghz unless I'm in the yard.
Yep, every now and then the phone drops the wifi connection and resets itself

I am having the same problem, S10+ Exynos Dual Sim. My place have 3 WiFi transmitters over a wide space. They all have different names etc. I notice that the S10+ does not reconnect 90% of the time when I move between these locations. Sometimes they work after a reboot but only for the first 5-10 minutes, afterward I have to connect manually every time I move. That's a major inconvenience as my S9+ that I use alongside it works like a champ.
