Help! My phone keeps disconnecting from WiFi saying 'connected without Internet'. I've followed all steps from Samsung who advise me that the issue is not with the mobile (it has been thoroughly checked and works on all other wifi - however to make sure I've followed all steps on my mobile including a factory reset in case it was the phone). I've had a new router from Talk Talk (Sagemcom model) but it is still causing issue. I've done a factory reset. I've also been put on another channel and had introvert signals sent, however the problem is still present. This connectivity issue only seems to happen on my WiFi at home. If I turn WiFi off and on again on my mobile it's fine and jumps back into action.....the problem occurs a many times per day but can be ok for periods of time in the day, however it takes a manual fix each time and I have to check that the phone hasn't dropped signal each time I use it, so this really isn't good especially if the phone has the screen switched off and it drops during that period, I just miss so many things on my phone as I'm not aware it's dropped connection. This problem has been present for about 2 months now and is so unstable that I can't use the service that I pay for at home. I'm really unhappy with this service and it just isn't being fixed regardless of multiple phone calls to Talk Talk.
I'm informed from another forum that a different brand router might help, however Talk Talk won't seem to offer me this. Meaning I'm effectively paying for a service each month that I can't use properly. On top of that, each phone call is about 1hr long and it's a huge drain on my free time to keep trying to sort this.
What can I do? Has anyone got advice on this issue? I'm at the end of the road now with this issue and really need help from Talk Talk.....

No worries. I am so puzzled why this would only affect a single device?

Thank you. This is much appreciated. I really hope this can be resolved, my patience is running thin now due to the length of time this has run on now and the constant dropping connection...I just can't continue with it, but I do hope I can stay a customer with you and someone can fix it 🤞Thank you for getting back to me so quickly. 👍

Sorry to see that this issue is persisting. The best I can do is re-escalate this for you to the support team, bear in mind that they won't be back online until Monday.

Hello, this issue is still no better. I simply can not have this issue go on any longer. I need something doing, otherwise I will have to leave and go with another provider (something I don't want to do since I have been a happy customer with you for 11 years or so now). I can't keep leeching my personal data on my phone when my WiFi doesn't work. I need a different router model or something now... some real change to the current situation. I really am not prepared to keep going on like this any longer now...I shouldn't be paying for a service that isn't working. Please can something be done to resolve this?
Thank you.

Hi Amy449,
Could you try switching the phone off again and leave it off for 5 minutes, then switch back on and check to see if there's any improvement

They will follow up on Monday.

It's going off constantly now. Unusable. I'm really unhappy with this. It was at least working some of the time but over the past few days wifi is never connecting on my phone. I can't use the service.

Hi Amy
Our devices team are still looking into this, we'll let you know when we have any further information

Thank you for the update. I really need a resolution on this ASAP. Today I have had no wifi through my phone... I'm using so much personal data. I don't feel it's acceptable that I'm still without a resolution for over 2 months and am paying for Internet package that I effectively can't use. If you could update me that would be great. Many thanks

Hi, not in any way, no. I have explored thoroughly this possibility with Samsung just in case but they have checked the phone and it is perfectly fine. It's something specifically with my WiFi that's causing the issue...or at least the communicate only between the two devices (the router and the phone)

Hi Amy449,
Could I just ask, do you have any problems with any other problems with the other android mobile phone?

Yes I've tried on about 3 different wifi routers for a few days when I've stayed for overnights and no issues whatsoever at any point with being disconnected. It only happens at my home. It's very strange but I have no idea what else to do.

Hi Amy,
When you say that it works on other wifi have you actually tried connecting the phone to someone elses router and used it for any length of time to see if the same thing happens?

Hi,
Yes I've tried all sorts on my phone: forgetting wifi, clearing cache partition, soft reset, factory reset, safe mode... everything. Router wise, I've done a factory reset and had a new router but the problem is happening all the time. It only happens on my home WiFi. It's getting to a point now where I just can't use it.... something more really needs to be done as I feel I'm just paying for a service that I can't use now. Can anything more be done?
