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.....

Does Karl still work at Talk Talk? The man who replied to this forum in August (on the 21st) 2024? This problem has occurred again with a new router. I'm getting absolutely no where with calls to try sort this. It's exactly the same issue as I had last year yet it seems no one at Talk Talk can resolve it. It's plain as day that Karl posted on here to say that he updated my firmware and switched me to a less congested channel.... also that hecdetected latency so put me on a msnual channel)... this FIXED the issue.. I've requested the same thing happen on my new router yet no one will do this or sort my issue. Can this PLEASE be sorted by someone?
I'm currently texting this off my own mobile data because the phone is again saying 'connected without Internet'. This is NOT a phone issue....it is an issue with the WiFi router (everything was working fine with Karl's fix until a new router arrived a few weeks ago.. and bang... back came the problem) It was previously fixed by these settings spplied by Karl last year. Can someone please fix this for me now and apply the same fix. Hours of my time already wasted in an effort to fix this.... how hard can it be? I expect better and just need to get a service here..... honestly hours of my personal time wasted to try and get help here... yet still the wifi won't connect. Why am I still with Talk Talk through this terrible service....I should just leave.... and will have to if this isn't resolved in this next attempt.

Please note that we've opened a case for you and can see that the case has been assigned to another department. You can try performing a reset on your router though by simply following the steps provided on the link I've provided below. Thanks

I'm trying from all angles to get someone to resolve this. So far no fix....
on 16-12-2025 12:09 PM
Hi there @Amy449, please confirm if you currently have someone from another department that's helping?

Android 16. My phone was connected fine until this new router arrived. Clearly the old setting from my router that Mark sorted were lost and has kicked up this issue again. It is not anything wrong with my phone...I looked into this deeply.

Do you know the current version of Android OS the device is using?
on 16-12-2025 11:48 AM
Samsung mobile. Experiencing it all the time daily. This is the main device that I use to connect with.
on 16-12-2025 11:44 AM
We are sorry for this, I'll need you to perform some checks. Can you tell me what type of device you are using when you experience problems?
If the problem you're experiencing is affecting more than one device, what's the main device you can use for testing with me now?

There is no other issue... it's the router. It was fine before the new router was set. All these checks are
What we did back in 2024. There are no issues in the house causing it. I don't need any upgrades to better Internet. The WiFi coverage is done. The router just needs to serve me correctly. Like I say I need updated firmware and on least congested channel. Can this now please be done I am really tiring of going round other issues that I know it isn't and it's exactly this that I wanted to not spend energy going into. A repeat of the months on this issue in 2024 is not something I'm prepared to do. Neither do I feel it is appropriate for me to need to find the fix here. It is nothing to do with anything other than the way the WiFi is sending out to my phone. Please please refer to last year on this forum to save any more wasted time on this.

Our tests show that you may be experiencing WiFi coverage problems. You may also benefit from an upgrade to your broadband service. I can see a Full Fibre service is available that would improve the reliability of your service. I would recommend an upgrade to our Fibre 65 service, along with Total Home WiFi to ensure good WiFi coverage in your home. This service provides boosters that extend your WiFi coverage throughout your home.
Would you like to know more about your upgrade options?

I can see that your broadband connection is working as it should with no issues showing on the line.
The broadband connection covers the physical cabling into your home and the router from outside your premises, so as that is working the issue you're experiencing is likely to be due to a WiFi problem, or other issue in your home.
I can guide you through checks which should help identify the issue and resolve if possible.

Everywhere even when sat directly in front of the router
on 16-12-2025 11:33 AM
Does the problem occur everywhere you try and use the WiFi, or just in certain parts of the house - for example upstairs, or outside the house?
on 16-12-2025 11:32 AM
No

Do you have any active monitoring for life threatening health reasons which is solely dependant upon your TalkTalk Broadband or Telephone line?
For example a care alarm, lifeline, health pendant or fall detector.

Thank you. I'm happy in the meantime for someone on here to work on the issue. I'm at home today until 2pm then I leave for work. So I can help with checks that need to be done before I go out. If someone can update my firmware and put me on least congested channel I can check this before I go out?

We apologize for any inconvenience caused, I have checked on your account, and your complaint manager will do a follow up on your case today between 12:00-14:00.

I am home and can't even use the WiFi now. If someone would like to call me please as I'm at the end of my tether and feel like moving company today. This needs resolving I can't use the internet I pay for...ludicrous.
