It seems like since I've upgraded to Nougat the WiFi radio never turns off during sleep. Has anyone else had this problem. I have told the system to keep the wifi on during sleep only while charging but it doesn't seem to care.

I always have had my tab set to turn off wifi when screen goes off,
and it has performed flawlessly.
Now - after the 3.2 update - When the screen goes blank,
the wifi does not turn off and it stays connected.
Does anyone else have this problem ? is there a fix ?
My issue is the tablet is set to turn wifi off when screen turns off.
Always worked perfectly.
Now after 3.2 when you wake it the wifi does not turn on, says out of range.
You have to click wifi on/off to reconnect.
Fix one thing and break another.
Stock tablet.
confirmed.
My tab is also set to turn off wifi when screen is off.
Same deal, it does not reconnect. Sometimes it does reconnect but he status bar says no internet connection.
Had the same problem after updating to KMM and now again with the new KMM (KMN).
But since wifi standby consumes almost no battery, I just leave wifi on "always on" (network notification switched off). It's only a workaround but with no real drawbacks.
I'm on Task 6.1 rom and its all good no wifi issues.
Question? How do u know if it turns off or not.
network scan
Same problem here.
After I turn on my tab, it does not reconnect immediately. Have to wait 1-2 minutes, then it reconnected.
Faster is to manually turn wifi off and on again.

Same here. Just upgraded the other day, have to leave wifi on or manually switch it off and on. Nice update samsung
Yep. Same issue here. I'm thinking of leaving wifi on all the time and checking the difference in battery life.
3.2 has had issues with wifi since day one. Use one of the custom rom, I use Task 6.1 and the problem went away. You can always revert to 3.1
Running a Nook Color with CM7.1 stable. Kind of an odd issue here, I have two different Bluetooth GPS devices, and when they are paired to the Nook and I turn my screen off and then back on, it loses the connection. The only way to reconnect the devices is to restart the Nook, as it fails to connect after the screen is brought back up. I have found that if I have the Nook plugged in for power, this issue does not happen. I have tried multiple GPS apps, reflashed CM7.1 multiple times, but still have no success unless I have the Nook plugged in, or I just ensure the screen doesnt go to sleep.
I really need this to work, as I'm using this as a pilot, and I can't have the screen on the entire flight as it will drain the battery quickly. I swore it used to work before, but I know I had issues with it, and maybe now realize what was causing those issues. On a side note, my friend has also tested everything I have done, but his works consistently and reliably regardless if he leaves the screen off, or turns it on and off repetitively. Hopefully someone may have an idea!!
Thanks in advance.
So noone has any thoughts or ideas at all?
Well seeing as it doesn't happen when your plugged in that would make me think that it has something to do with the fact that WiFi turns off when the screen is turned off. The Bluetooth and WiFi are on the same module i do believe. The default setting for WiFi is to stay on all the time while plugged in and turn off when the screen is turned off while on battery.
My suggestion would be to turn the WiFi to stay on all the time and see if that changes anything. Go to WiFi settings --> menu --> advanced --> WiFi sleep policy -->never. That would be my suggestion, hope that works for ya!

That's what I was thinking too. It seems that when NC goes into deep sleep Bluetooth will lose connection. By removing deep sleep you should be able to stay connected, although your battery will drain faster than with deep sleep on, it should have a better life with screen off than on.
Well I appreciate both of your responses. However, I should have mentioned that I do already have Wi-Fi set to always stay on/never sleep. Any other suggestions?
Please permanently I have WIFI issue in deeps sleep. Wifi dont work - dont work any gtalk, gmail notification, or too late.. At the moment I turn on display - comes all notification - in the same second when display turn on, all nottification beeps!
When is display on, or is connected charger (-deep sleep is off), all about wifi is perfect and push servis is ok. But when goes to deep sleep, all is back. I trayd many roms, but still the same. Please, know someone any solution? Thank you very much!
Off course wifi deep slep setting is "allways" and router is ok..
I've noticed for the past few days that when i look at my phone in the morning, the wifi is disabled (greyed out). I usually leave the phone on streaming spotify while charging. I can't remember off the top of my head whether this happened when I first had it but I definitely know it has been doing this for the past week. I'm using the Canadian version of the Samsung 7 Edge. Has anyone else noticed this behavior? Any advice would be appreciated since i'm trying to figure out whether this is a software bug or whether something is wrong with my wifi chip. Thanks in advance.
5GHz
I Had similar issues it was because i was connected to 5GHz on my Asus router, I had constant disconnects the the wifi icon was greyed out. I had to switch to 2.4GHz and everything is working smooth. Don't know if it's just me having issues with 5GHz.
At work, I have it connected to 5Ghz for at least 8 hrs a day and leave it on streaming music and wifi never disables itself. I tested the phone last night again but instead of having it plugged in, i just left it on battery, connected to wifi and streaming music. This morning when I woke up, wifi was still on and connected. I've come to a possible conclusion that in my specific case, it could be the fact that it is getting too hot while charging so it turns off the service perhaps ? Does anyone know whether this is a normal behavior ?
Do you have Keep Wifi on during sleep turned off?

That option is most definitely have that option on. I suppose it could be the router I'm using as it is also an Asus model but that a bit of a stretch. I have since factory resetted it and the issue still persists.
I'm using latest Pie and my wifi is completely off when the phone sleep overnight.
That's saying I missed all notification. I wonder if this is normal or just happened to me.
Thanks.
