WiFi won't turn off or connect. - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Every so often my WiFi won't connect to my home router. Seems to happen after i leave for some time then come back home. I can see the network but cannot connect or turn off the WiFi. The only way for me to fix it short of a reboot is to turn on airplane mode turn off WiFi then turn off airplane nice. Anyone else experience this? Otherwise the phone had been perfect.Stock non rooted.

Those issues are not the same. This thread is not qn issue of automatic connection, it is that the wifi cannot connect or be disabled because something is wrong with Marshmallow.

Wifi widget sometimes doesnt work

Sometimes ill push my wifi wiidget and it will Jehoshaphat that it is on but it wont connect to my network. If ithen go to settings, then wiring, it will start connecting.
Anyone have a similar issue?
Are you talking about the power control widget that comes with the phone?
Yes.....
In that case then yes, my phone doesn't auto connect to my network when I turn on wifi I have to go into settings too.
I've been having issues with my phone staying connected to wifi also. It's become quite annoying.

Wifi does not connect after sleep

Not a huge issue but for some reason when I turn ON my TF from a long sleep/hybernation (1hr+), it will lose it's wifi connection to my house but the icon says that it is connected (but with no internet access). The only way I can fix this is by turning off and on the wifi. I would rather not have to do this. Is there a way/fix for this issue so that the wifi will reconnect once the tablet wakes?
Thanks!
This is one of several bugs that I am starting to fined annoying. I have to leave wifi as always on rather than disconnect on sleep.
The other issue is browser closing...still no fix for that either.

T231 wifi problem after screen turn off

I have SM-T231 and i am using Russian firmware, Android 4.4.2. I have a small but very annoying problem which i couldn't resolve no matter what i tried. My wifi connection doesn't work after my screen turns off.
Wifi connection is set to turn off during standby mode to save battery power. I see that the wifi connection becomes active after i wake up my tablet with power button but i receive no data whatsoever. It doesn't get fixed `till i turn off and on wifi connection manually. I tried to use static ip feature by thinking that maybe my router causing the problem with dhcp but this didn't help.
Anyone have an idea what might cause this very annoying issue?

Wi-fi and Bluetooth turn on and off randomly

Hey
I am guessing this is a software/app/os issue, but it is noticeable on the LG V20 thanks to the second screen.
Recently I have noticed that wifi and bt turn on while the main screen is off. When I turn the screen on, they both turn off like naughty school kids caught smoking. This is obviously when I am not using wifi or bt.
I have scoured the settings looking for something that can stop this from happening, but nothing so far. Wifi has a setting where it says, "keep wifi on while in standby", with three options, I have tried all three of them, and nothing is preventing this from happening.
I enjoy controlling these functions, and get anxious when it happens automatically. Anyone with advice?
I think I have found the solution. I had the app Firechat installed which uses Bluetooth and WiFi to transmit data to other devices. I have uninstalled it now and it seems that WiFi and bt have stopped turning on automatically.

Anyone else? My wifi will shut off after about 30 seconds and I have those same settings set to keep on. I even tried after a factory reset and still having this issue.
I have the same problem,if the Bluetooth is on I have high latency wifi and conectivity loss, this only fix if I power off the bluetooth

I am also running into this issue. The only way I can get my wifi to connect to my home router is by restarting my phone. Otherwise the rest of the time, I see a message stating that my wifi is disconnected, when it clearly was not, it was even showing me nearby routers that I could connect to, but not my own router, even when i tried to add my router manually, it could not connect. I am having the same issue with Bluetooth connections. My laptop can sometimes see my phones Bluetooth, but my car can't find it at all. I'm on AT&T H910, running on DESOLATION 7.1.2

Question Unable to turn on hotspot

Unable to turn on wifi hotspot.
My phone is in Nothing os 1.1.2
I tried resetting network setting, restart etc.,
Anyone else faced this issue?
Turn off Wi-Fi, than it should work.
Wow worked. Thanks.
My wifi was not connected to anyone but turned on.
I didn't think I had to manually turn off wifi before turning on hotspot.
