This usually happens on an unreliable network, but to get around this I usually try airplane mode on then off, try to re-connect?

Ooops. Just checked the wifi menu on my note. I expected to find something like "advanced options" in wifi-settings as on my razr HD. There was a check mark that allowed "to connect to networks that are weak". Couldn't find anything like it on my N3. But maybe some one else knows if this is a device thing or rather an android 4.2 vs. 4.3 issue.

The option you need to un-tick is "Auto Network Switch". I had the same issue at work with a poor connection, it would keep giving me the same message you're seeing. Once I disabled auto network switch however it worked just fine. It was right, the internet was slow, but it's better than the non-existent cellular reception underground.....

thanks for the suggestion, but i already untick all of the option and problem still persist.

I have a similar problem, I have a network with no internet connectivity (and want it that way for CCTV) I have to turn off my mobile data first (uncheck it in the data usage screen) than connect to the wifi, or it keeps booting me out.

Can't we stop these?
Are you running the latest firmware? It seems odd to say but I had the same problem with my GoPro for live viewing, updating helped fix the problem.

enable DHCP your router

None of the so called "fixes" work...changing settings. Un tick this.. reset router.. reset phone.. forget all the bad advice. ..
FACT IS...The Note 3 has a WiFi connection fault... hopefully Samsung will fix it.

Does your problem fixed?

[Q] Auto Network Switch - where is it located ?

Where is the Auto-Network Switch located in Settings ? In my WIFI settings I have no ADVANCED setting to check, only a "Notify me" setting is present. Under each network connection there is an advance switch but it doesn't have anything for auto-network.
Started getting "unstable network" errors and I notice the device is scanning every 5-10 seconds even though my wifi signal is very strong.

You don't have advanced when you hit the menu button? That's where you'll find the auto network setting...

Menu button within Setting didn't dawn on me but yeah it makes sense, I guess. Thanks given.

When I check the Auto Network setting box, I disconnect from my wi-fi entirely, even thought I am right in front of it.
Any other ideas of how I can get rid of that 'Your Internet connection is unstable,..' notification?
Thanks!

This is pretty irritating it has stopped me from connecting to a "slow" wi-fi network when I had 0 cell signal

Ah, I posted a separate thread about this. I am receiving the unstable connection warnings as well, also with good signal (or certainly should be good signal where I'm located relative to the routers).
Wonder if some of us have bad phones in this regard .. will have to keep watching for others with the issue / possible solutions.

3G problem

Hi guys
Often, expecially when i'm at home and expecially after some mintues of inactivity, the 3g stocks with only green arrow (upload) and i can't use any app (browser, whatsapp etc.)
I tried to flash MJ7 modem but the situation hasn't changed.
What can i do?

Just disconnect and connect back to the network via some Data Enabler switch.

I am facing the same problem, whether i am on wifi or mobile network, my connection seems to be unstable, especially when screen is off. Once I switch on the phone, I start receiving many notifications at once, So it seems that data connection sometimes gets off and reconnects once the screen gets on. The issue happens on wifi as well as mobile network.
many times I loose connection even with the phone on, after browsing web or using other network related apps. after switching off data toggle, the connection restores back to normal.
Couldn't find any solution yet. On my Galaxy S4 I never had such an issue

Data connection turns itself off when phone is on WiFi

When I am on WiFi connection for some time, data connection will turn itself off automatically and won't turn back on when I am out of WiFi range. So if I forget to turn data on manually, my email etc won't update and I have missed important business emails that way. Anyone else have this issue and what to do? Let me add that I don't have battery saving mode turned on.

This is not a issue it's a feature, turn on switching in wifi settings so when are not in wifi range it will switch automatically to data.its called smart network switch.

I switched the suggested setting on but the problem persists.

I am pretty sure this has been going on since the latest OTA update.

Definately OTA update caused it. Fa tory reset fixed it.

Dreadful AT&T GS7 Edge Quick Setting Toggle

Alas the same fate from Galaxy S6 the dreadful no Mobile Data toggle is not there anymore, please tell me there is some sort of program that will fix this I don't want to deal with this again after kitkat and marshmallow.

I don't know of any quicker way than to drill down into the Data Usage settings (unless you want to turn off mobile voice too, in which case you can toggle Airplane Mode and then optionally toggle WiFi back on, which will also give you WiFi Calling if you have that enabled).
Just out of curiosity, why do you toggle Mobile Data so often as to benefit from a quick setting for it?

Thing is I don't like using my data when there is Wi-Fi but for some reason the data is still used while the Wi-Fi is connect, and no the Wi-Fi booster option you can use isn't on. It's quite annoying repetitively going into the connections and what not to turn it off rather than having a quick button to use in the notification dropdown.
And when I do turn it off it has that absurd mobile data turned off in the notifications it won't let me swipe it away just sits there in sure that bothers someone else. I have tried to make it go away but nothing works. Other than that I just would like to know why there isn't a mobile data toggle

I can see how a mobile-data toggle would be a useful workaround for that problem. But have you tried to fix the problem itself? Has it occurred on more than one WiFi network? When you turn off mobile data and use WiFi, does the Internet connection ever drop out?

Yes it has, no the internet connection doesn't drop out at all, I don't know what's going on but yes a mobile data toggle would be great I just don't see why AT&T supposedly removed it.

If you could get your data bug fixed, there wouldn't be much need for the toggle. Is it any app in particular that's using mobile data despite having a WiFi connection to the Internet? Or does everything on your phone do that?

Everything on the phone, and yes a mobile data toggle would still be required whether it's fixed or not, as I said having to repetitively go into the settings to turn it on and off is quite annoying especially when I need to use it.

try using Usage Manager app to toggle data..its faster than going through settings.

May I ask what are you talking about a usage manager

It's a system app. Think it has a widget, too.

Did you happen to purchase the phone from Samsung itself?

If you use nova launcher u can add a widget thru nova actions that takes u strait to mobile data settings.

Alright thanks for the help guys I had to snoop around to find usage manager apparently it was disabled on the phone, that is much better and faster
