Hello,
I get the message 'Internet may not be available' when I connect to my works wifi. Anybody has come across it?
The wifi router is an Asus AC-1200 running stock firmware. At home I don't have any issue with Ubiquiti AC Pro access point.
I am running stock Oreo firmware on SM-N960F/DS.
Thanks
Yes and all kinds of other issues like. Tethering to my iPad. Keeps kicking me off the hotspot from my phone. It happened with beta so I went back to oreo. I thought they would fix it in the official release. But no. Back to oreo for me.
If it is work wifi does your device has to be white-listed before granted access?

No, the device does not need to be whitelisted. The wifi works with the screen on but when the screen is off it disconnects from the wifi. Fortunately, I have access to the work wifi AP and i disabled the 'power save' option which seem to have helped.

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone else if having the following problem:
Ever since updating to Lollipop, my Wifi Networks will not Auto-connect any more. I'll connect to a Wifi network, but then if I leave the area and come back later, my phone will try to connect, eventually give up and I end up with "Disabled" on that Wifi network. This happens on all three of my Wifi networks (Home, Work and School) (802.11ac/802.11n, WPA2/802.1x EAP, 5.0GHz/2.4GHz) and both Lollipop firmwares I've tried (23.1.A.0.726 US, 23.1.A.0.690 US). I can manually connect afterwards by going to the Wifi settings and choosing the appropriate network and connecting. This happens on locked and unlocked bootloader, stock kernel, AndroPlus v2 and AndroPlus v50, Xposed and no Xposed. This does not happen on Stock KK, rEctifY or CM12 (although I had some issues with some of the CM12 nightlies with 802.1x EAP + MSCHAPv2).
Any ideas on how to diagnose/fix?
I have this happen a lot on my shield tablet. On z3c too, but yo less extent. Dont knos what to do

I have the same issue on my Xperia Z1 now that it has received lollipop as well. This is about the only google result I've found for the same behavior though.

Yeah I wasn't really able to find anything on Google either. Glad that Google's link y'all to my thread though .
Well, I am facing the same issue. I noticed that this only happens when my data is also ON. ( then my Z3 switches from Wifi to DATA)
If I disable data usage then the phone doesnt shut down the wifi.
Well I'm trying this:
http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/87907/how-can-i-stop-lollipop-ignoring-my-wifi-network
It's simple. In the terminal (requires root-make sure you do a SU prior to the below command), or in adb shell, issue the command:
settings put global captive_portal_detection_enabled 0
After a reboot it found my WiFi at work and auto connected. Will see if it works when I get home.

Didn't work.
I check this in Android source repo and unfortunately this only works for KitKat. I checked the Lollipop code and there is no setting to disable Captative Portal.
I have just read someone had success using a third party app called Wifi Switcher.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.l6n.wifiswitcher
Im going to try it see if it helps.
So having used Wifi Switcher for a day I have had no problems with auto connecting to saved networks. The app is not made to solve the issues with lollipop and auto connecting to networks, it is made to always connect to the saved network with the strongest signal. However by selecting and connecting to saved networks it seems to override the settings in lollipop that don't allow you to auto connect to certain networks. Not a perfect solution but I am happy with it.
Hi anyone have experience with connecting the n8 to this camera? Using the sony memories software it tries to connect but disconnects immediately. Any ideas folks.
I have an A5000 but i believe the method should be same.
When using wifi transfer i set it to wifi direct rather than through a router/access point (never had any success with using wifi router), when connecting directly to the camera the phone will complain about no internet access, make sure you pull the drop down and select stay connected anyways (otherwise the note may drop the connection so i can reconnect to your router that does have internet connection)
Found the solution I had to disable mobile data. Only found this out this by checking whether it worked on my tab s3 and it did so was a matter of deduction. Thx

strange mine works fine with mobile data on, do you have the switch to mobile data when ever your wifi internet connection is slow or unstable turned on in the advance wifi options?

Yes you can, you need to unlock your bootloader, put your phone in EDL (fastboot oem edl) and flash the firmware with MiFlash

You can lock the bootloader in MiFlash, the option "flash all and lock" or something like that.
I had also updated my phone to pie using vpn and now there is some problem in my wifi range. Wifi doesnt work as good as it used to in oreo.
I also have serious wifi issues since I updated to Pie. Specially with 2,4Ghz band when i go to a zone away from the AP. Although the signal is still pretty strong, the wifi radio keeps connecting and disconnecting. It's very frustrating because it didn't happen with my previous phones and it doesn't happen with other phones from family members or friends, even if the devices are low end.

Settings > Wi-Fi > Wi-Fi preferences > Turn off Wi-Fi automatically
No, the culprit is not the wifi power saving feature. This problem is totally different and it only happens with the 2.4Ghz radio. Anyway the setting you say seems to be removed in Pie.
Edit: Problem solved.
It's this setting --> Enable Wifi automatically. I don't know what it does precisely because the name and description is misleading. I disabled it and wifi now works like charm.
Thanks for the clue!
Edit 2: Wifi power saving still works as it should, disables wifi when there's no net activity with device locked. So far, so good [emoji11]

That's WiFi AI, Android Pie is entirely based on AI predictions, it works great for brightness and apps once it's trained, but it's a pain when it comes to connectivity, it needs further enhancements.
So my accesspoint now supports WPA3 in beta.
This seems to work great with my apple products but I have some issues using wpa3 with my Pixel 4 XL.
At first I had to delete the WiFi and reenter the passphrase to get WPA3 working.
Then after a few hours the phone disconnects and asks for the passphrase again but can't connect. Keeps asking for passphrase again and again. I have to disable and enable WiFi to get it working again. This happens every few hours.
For me this looks more like a pixel related problem then a problem related to my access point, isn't it? But with WPA2 everything works fine.
Anyone else out there running WPA3 personal with Pixel 4/XL experiencing problems?

I know late answer but better as none.
I just activate WPA3 on my AVM Repeater 3000 and i have the same problems.
I needed to delete the passphrase and connect again
because before that the phone didn't change to WPA3.
And when the connection going away unexpectly i must deactivate and activate the wlan once.
I don't know whether this happens so often as by you because i'm running wpa3 since an hour (round about).
And well i have a few hickups in wpa2, too. So i can't say whether this is wpa3 specific.
I know that doesn't help you really but well at least you are not the only one with that problem.
Nice to see I'm not the only one experiencing these problems.
Have you reported the problem to AVM?

Not yet.
One thing to try is in your WiFi profile > Advanced > Privacy = Use device MAC.

I already do this because i'm using MAC whitelisting.
The issues with WPA3 and FRITZ!Box router/ap seems to be fixed with March Update and/or latest beta/"Labor" firmware for Fritz ?
@dhacke can you confirm this?

Wow they are fast. I wrote to them at monday and now they have already a labor update?!
Great. I will install the labor update on my wlan repeater on Sunday and report back.
@Doenerbude
today i installed the new labor update on my fritz repeater 3000 and sadly it doesn't help.
My connection aborts are so high as before. I'm back on wpa2 again.
I have issues with WPA3 as well. I switched it on the Google Nest WiFi and whilst my Chromebook doesn't face any issues, my Pixel 4XL is randomly disconnecting from the network.
I've also noticed that when I walk in my apartment, it doesn't connect automatically. I have to switch off the WiFi on the phone and switch it back on to connect to the WiFi network.
This issue does not appear when WPA3 is switched off. I initially thought it's a poor implementation on the Nest WiFi but perhaps not?

I believe meanwhile the implementation in our phone is the problem. That would explain why the problem occurs on different wpa3 router/aps.
As far as i know the pixel 4 xl isn't a wifi6 certified device and only wifi6 certfified devices are required to support wpa3.
That could explain the bad implementation.
Hi All, I have an Exynos Note 8 SM-N950F. I have finally updated the software to android 9.0, and now whenever I turn on the hotspot, it disables WiFi.
Can anyone point me to a rom or fix to enable both WiFi and hotspot, so I can share my WiFi connection with the hotspot? If not, I assume I have to install the stock 8.0 rom for the SM-N950F?
I'm not sure that's possible. By enabling hotspot, your phone becomes the local wifi for the devices you want to share it with using your data. If you are receiving wifi from somewhere, why cant the other devices you want to use just use that wifi as well? If wifi is available to your phone, I'm not understanding why you have to activate hotspot to provide wifi to other devices when they could just obtain wifi from the same place your phone is getting it from already.

Thank you for the reply! I didn't believe so as well, but at least the Exynos Note 8 had this ability. I could hypothetically be on a plane, join the paid WiFi, and share the connection to my laptop. I used it to join a VPN on my phone, and share with my laptop. I also used it as a network extender while traveling; I'd place my phone in the area that got the best WiFi signal, and use it as a repeater for my laptop. IDK if this is a general android 9.0 disabling, or specific to Samsung, but I need this feature on my phone. The note 8 was close to perfect, except for these software limitations, including the slow charging bug. I specifically imported the Exynos version when I bought it so I could roll back the software if I had to.
Ah , ok that makes sense..
