Wi-fi signal keeps dropping in the M31 - Samsung Galaxy M31 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I notice that if the Wifi has been connected for a while, the signal drops and I'm not able to connect to the internet unless I switch off the wi-fi and switch it on again. Initially I thought it was just an intermittent issue, but it's happening almost daily for me now, and has begun to bother me.
Any one facing a similar issue?

Wifi connection issues

Just picked up the One yesterday and it's an amazing phone, however whenever I connect to my WiFi it connects quickly and then when I go to load a webpage or do anything with data it stutters, WiFi drops, 3G reconnects for a few seconds, tries to load and then WiFi reconnects. That cycle keeps going until I have to just turn WiFi off.
Is anyone else having this problem?

Yep driving me nuts trying to transfer from my old 3D. WTH.
no problems here with my netgear r6300 AC router, the initial connection does seems to take a bit longer than my old evolte but other than that not a single problem.

Droid 4 freezes when connecting to wifi with poor signal

Hi all!
I don't know when this started to happen: when I connect to a wifi network with poor signal, the phone hangs and becomes unresponsive for several minutes.
I first blamed Firefox for this, but, since this occurs even when I'm not using it, I came to the conclusion that the problem somehow depends on the strenght of the signal of the wifi network I connect to.
In fact, this doesn't happen when I'm at home.
Anybody is experiencing a similar problem?
Thanks in advance.

Wifi on/off problem

I've been having an issue with the WiFi connection lately. I have it configured for always on if connected on suspension.
But in the last few days I've picked my phone after leaving it like an hour and it's on LTE and the WiFi turns on. The WiFi connection was always on because I was using it with no problems on a laptop.
Is someone having this problem? I've searched but the only post I find is someone having the opposite problem.
I'm running stock 5.1 no root.

Wifi problem on s10/+ !!!

My wifi keeps dropping as well, it's getting to the point where I might return to Samsung unless it's fixed in a firmware update!

Same problem started to happen recently with my phone but only with 5GHz WiFi.
Getting the same problem with 5ghz as well, have to shut it off and then reconnect to the router. Their networking coding is a disgrace, tons of complaints about it all over the place and Samsung does nothing.... I can't return my device but if you're still within the period of being able to, I would if I were you. I absolutely hate this device and all its problems.
I"m having a similar issue. First I noticed that LTE would stop working until I rebooted. Then the wifi would glitch up the same way. I'm not sure if it's the switch from one to the other, or what the deal is. The worst part is it's not repeatable. It just seems to do it randomly.
I have encountered the same problem with wifi dropping. I went to wifi setting and forget network and reboot. Punch the password back. Its working fine now. By the way im using the latest s10+ firmware rooted
Hi guys,
I was faced to the same issue since I bought my S10e. DO not mind the solutions proposed on generic sites (thecellguide.com, thedroidguy.com), they're garbage, totally irrelevant (reboot your phone, erase your cache blabla).
I've tried several hypothesis to troubleshoot this issue (very inconsistent wifi connection with my TPLink 4G routeur MR600, disconnecting every minute or so). In fact, tens...
And the final word seems to be, as observed by other users: 5GHz. After disabeling the option on my routeur (switching all traffic to 2,4GHz) everything is fine. For now.
Good luck

I've also had this issue on the S10E where the wifi would be connected but no internet. After a few minutes it would no longer see the wifi. 5ghz of course. 2.4 no problem. I noticed this happened right after login to Samsung account. Now that I'm logged out Samsung account wifi is all good. I'm on the oneui 2 Jan sec update.
I have the same problem with my girlfriend's Samsung S10, it keeps disconnecting from 5GHz. Just now I switched her to 2.4GHz to see if it solves the problem. All our other devices (HTC One M9, 2x laptops, raspbbery pi 3, chromecast, google home) have no problem with the WiFi on either band.
Samsung really has a problem with it's network code, I also had a problem at work with Cisco APs when an Apple device and the Samsung S10 where on the same network it would bring the whole network down. It was some multicast bug where the Apple would announce itself as the gateway only when an S10 was present.
It's happened to me but never until after the last update. I noticed yesterday I was connected with no internet.

Wifi constantly dropping after 58.1.A.5.441 update [w/ workaround]

My XQ-AT52 (dual sim HK) became unusable after recent 58.1.A.5.441 update. Wifi constantly connects - disconnects every few seconds, and after several tries, it gives up then nothing would show up in wifi list. Tried airplane mode/reboot/factory reset/software repair and no luck.
After hours of desperately poking around settings and google, a weird workaround was found: turn on hotspot first, then connect wifi like usual. It keeps connected and fully working until the second hotspot gets turned off. I guess maybe an overly aggressive battery-saving rule was introduced in the update, wrongfully shuts down normal wifi connections and got overridden by hotspot. But I can't find any proof in logcat.
Hopefully this will be fixed in the next update.
Edit:
Upgrade to 58.1.5.474 did NOT fix this problem.
Upgrade to 58.1.5.530 and problem fixed.
I'm having a related issue with Xperia 5 II (XQ-AS52 Dual), seemingly since the same update 58.1.A.5.441.
For me the problem is that 5GHz networks work fine for around one day, then they get disconnected for no apparent reason. At this point, 5GHz networks won't show up in the list of Wifi networks until I restart the phone. Then I can see and connect to 5GHz again but the same problem re-occurs after around one day. Really annoying !
No issue though with the 2.4GHz networks apparently.
I wanted to downgrade to the previous firmware to confirm my suspicion, but can't find it on the web for my region (EU).
