Every 3 - 5 minutes while browsing, my wifi will "hang" (timeout when trying to access sites). Note: it doesn't disconnect, the wifi icon is still there as if I was connected, it will just timeout any requests
I'm using CM 6.1 and Airties 6271 modem
Hello,
My phone disconnecting from WIFI when i screen off
Android 5.1.1 by Quarx build 2016.01.09:
Wifi back when i press power button,
No notifications
I tried:
keep wifi on during sleep is ALWAYS
I disabled profile for application (in battery settings)
i edited /system/etc/wifi/WCNSS_Qcom_cfg.ini
#gStaKeepAlivePeroid = 30
to
gStaKeepAlivePeroid = 30
BUT still disconnecting
My Router: TP-LINK WR740N with Gargoyle Router Management (OpenWRT) 1.6.2.2
Is any way to fix this ?
Everything was working fine on my phone when one week back I was watching Youtube on my phone and it started buffering and I saw that Wifi bars from status bar were on low though I was sitting right next to the router. I tried all basic troubleshooting like reboot phone and router, check if same problem is there on other devices and even changed ROM. All other devices connected to my Wifi work fine. I even tried connecting to my friend's network at his place and even there I was having same problem. When I connect to Wifi network on my XT1068 it shows full range for 5 seconds then it drops to 1 or 2 bars. Wifi does work but it works very slowly. Please help! I am open to all suggestions.
PS - Previous ROM - Resurrection Remix
Current ROM - crDroid
Both on latest builds.
After installing the android nougat resurrection remix I started to have wi-fi instability problems. Even installing the previous ROM, android pie resurrection remix, the problem continued. What could I do to resolve this?
After updating to MIUI 11 I can no longer autoconnect to a known wifi network when I turn on wifi from the quick settings. Everytime I want to connect to a known network I have to go to the wifi settings ant press REFRESH button. Only after that I can see all my avalible networks.
Hi community,
I'm writing because I have a strange WiFi problem with my S21 Ultra which I had with no other equipment before.
Setup:
- Galaxy S21 Ultra
- FritzBox 7590
- Fritz WLan Repeater 1750E (2x for better range coverage)
- WiFi 5G Auto channel WPA2/3
- WiFi coverage is good (tested with a lot of other devices)
Phone Setup:
- Paired with the WiFi
- Do Not use Mobile Data
- automatically reconnect to wifi
Problem:
The phone does not automatically connect to the WiFi.
The phone also looses the connection to the WiFi several times a day.
When the phone is not connected to the wifi I open wifi settings.
- It happens that the wifi list is completely empty and the circle animation indicates that the phone is searching for nearby connections
- It happens that the wifi list contains a list of wifi networks the phone has seen before when it was connected last to a wifi
- Switching off an on the wifi helps to find the actual networks and the phone then connects back to wifi (most of the time)
I tried already several settings and combinations but so far none of them brought any success. So I would like to know if someone else had a similar issue or has an idea what could go on here.
To me it seems strange that the wifi scan is not working as I would expect it. I would expect the phone to continously refresh the wifi list with networks it sees, but always when the phone lost its wifi connection the list is not working anymore.
Try tinkering with the wifi channels and encryption until it shows up.
Or you can try resetting the routers to see if it does anything

Has anyone else have WIFI connection problems ? With not finding any WIFI until i factory reset it? And after a few days the problem reappears. Last time i didn't factory reset it and after 3 days, with no adjustment, the phone found WIFI, but...

You said the phone loses connection and etc. Does that happen only at the location you described, or does it also happen at other locations?
It is possible that your phone also gets confused with the router and the repeater.
1st you need to clearly understand if the issue comes from the phone or possibly from your WIFI devices. Once this is clear, you have something to go on with...

- Phone is on standby (placed on a table, etc.)
- I turn it on to check messages,
- No connection to wifi
- Open wifi manager
- No wifi networks listed at all
I do not know why my router/network should be the problem. All other devices in the wifi work flawlessly. It cannot be that I have to restart my wifi router every time the phone finds no wifi at all. That makes no sense to me.
It looks more like the android wifi service is still on sleep and does not report new wifi networks (which would be necessary also to see any wifi at all).
May I suggest....
Settings -> Connections -> Wi-Fi -> (three dots it top right) ->Advanced
Make sure "Turn on Wi-Fi automatically" and "Wi-Fi power saving mode" are both off.
If you use a repeater is it a mesh or AP solution? I find Android will drag its feet letting go of a wifi signal even when walking into range of another known network. Had an extender in garden and even when down to 10% connection on Wi-Fi it would stay connected to extender, I had to turn wifi off and on quickly to get it to pick a better network.

It seems to be the phone...
Definitely try what lywyn suggested...
you can also submit an error report on Samsung Members app, it sends reports directly to Samsung and get the feedback.
Download the app from the Galaxy Store if you don't have it on your phone > Memers app > + button > Error report

Unfortunately no success. I configured exactly like suggested. Does the S21 Ultra have problems with handover in meshed WiFi setups?

Never had any problem with my S21U (Exynos) with my Mesh WiFi (Deco X60) setup.

sometimes it happen when you connect at certain locations.
If you haven't already done so give this a try. Settings, search "Wi-Fi", scroll down to Location, Improve accuracy - toggle on, Wi-Fi scanning - toggle on.

Mesh is a single network solution so should not be a problem.
The only other thing I can think of is the power-saving mode. My son has his Pixel on power saving all the time and I know sometimes he has to turn off/on wifi to get a connection when waking the phone up
I found the issue! It is WiFi Direct related. The app "nexar" from the dashcam is interfering with normal WiFi on this phone. Nexar conquers the WiFi functionality and is responsible for my wifi disconnecting. The app requires the "Location always" permission. If I remove this permission my WiFi works again normally. So: one has a similar issue: remove "Location always" permission from the nexar app. In my case it helped.
You said the phone loses connection and and many others. Does that show up best on the region you described, or does it also happen at different places?
Kodi nox
It is feasible that your phone additionally receives harassed with the router and the repeater.
1st you need to honestly recognize if the issue comes from the cellphone or likely from your WIFI devices. Once this is clean, you've got something to go on with...
