I hard reset my phone because it became cluttered with crap... and now its been running great off the stock rom with all my favorite programs and such, but I cannot get a stable wifi connection? My home connection was working fine before the reset, and I never used any network management software besides what was stock on the phone...
I do use WEP protection with a simple 10 digit password to access the network, but it works fine wirelessly on my pc, laptop and my psp
Any ideas? If i can get a connection (sitting next to the Wireless Router) it lasts for maybe 10 seconds before disconnecting and can't be found for 10 or so more minutes
Sorry, no answer for you, but on the topic of WiFi woes...
Is there a way to get a network to stay on the list permanently. I connect to about 5 different networks throughout the day and by the end of the day, my home network is no longer on the list and I have to manually add it again. Kind of annoying since I have to do it every day.
I use a laptop to connect wirelessly to a modem but my brother connects to the modem through an ethernet cable (for his laptop). Whenever I'm connected to the internet alone, it works fine. But, once my brother turns on the computer and connects to the internet, the connection crashes. It takes roughly 3 minutes to fix itself, but it crashes a few minutes later. If one person turns off the computer, the internet connection becomes stable again.
This problem started about two days ago, but the modem has been there for a few years, the laptops are not recently bought, so there really were no changes that I know of that could have affected the modem to crash like that.
This problem gets really annoying and any help would be great. Thanks
Alright, this is a frustrating issue that I've been having since day 1 with WhatsApp, and it's not even just SGS4, but with my old SGS too.
Problem:
Phone screen turns off while on WIFI, after a while of inactivity, WIFI still seems to run, but WhatsApp lost connection and takes a long time to reconnect, and usually requires a full restart of WIFI.
This does not happen on 3G for me, it only happens when WIFI is active.
Things tried:
- Turn off 3G entirely, so it only runs on WIFI.
- Reinstall WA
- Restart phone.
- Do a clean install of firmware (on my old SGS).
- Test it out on new phone~ (Brand new SGS4 i9505)
I don't know what's causing this, can anyone please help me figure this out? Let me know if you need more info.
is your router set to "always connected" or does it disconnect after sometime if no data comes in?
maybe i'm wrong but if it's only a wifi problem you maybe should look into your router settings.

Already looked into that.
Weird part is that Skype stays connected perfectly fine, but WhatsApp never does.
Please search a bit, this has been answered just a day ago.

I have a similar issue
S7 connects to WiFi but can not use any co sections through apps
The browser works though.
It only happens on my bt home hub WiFi .
Bt says there is no fault on the line (other devices connect fine)
Samsung says the phone is fine
The issue is seemingly the s7 and Google have an issue with ipv6
But at start when i bought my s7 edge..i had no such problem... wil there be any solution
I had this problem too after nougat update but at the end it was a router configuration problem.
So whats the router configuration...kindly share some steps
What if i go back to marshmallow ? Wil it be safe ?
This is also a problem I have been getting in the last week or so. I have had the phone over a year. Not sure if it could be a recent update that is causing this?
Mine started 3 weeks ago. I didn't update anything on the phone or router.
Will it be good to go back to android 6.0? Will it be safe?
Check your time on your phone. Sounds dumb but if it's not set to the right time, your Internet won't load.
also smart switch could be the problem.
I've had an issue a few times, when wifi turned off and was trying to connect again, but smart switch foocked up wifi.
try disabling all weird features in wifi settings
time is set and no smart switch problem also.... what should i do now
I also have a Pixel C and I get this issue on that as well so it's not just s7 edge related.
Oh thats strange that even Pixel phone also has this problem... what wil be the solution
I get the notification from Google about making your connection secure. I used to accept it. Now when I forget the connection and get offered it again I refuse. This seems to be working for me.
I am also experiencing this problem after the nougat update and after the March security update. The WiFi notification gets the exclamation point and I have to cycle connection. I have changed nothing and I have verified nothing has changed in my settings. No other brands of phone or tablet in the house are experiencing this problem.

Did you get the notification from Google about securing your Wifi network? If you accepted then forget the network, rejoin and the reject the offer in the future. It worked for me.

Nope, never got that notification. Tried forgetting and then reconnecting, no notification, and still WiFi sporadically says no internet when connected.
