Quick question about problems with switching between Wifi and mobile data.
I have noticed that even when Wifi is dead (Exclamation mark, or entirely disconnected even with a question mark) but the general setting to use Wifi is active, my 7T does not always turn on mobile data, so I am totally offline.
Only when I manually turn of Wifi entirely it works again.
Is anyone else having this problem, is it a known issue?
Thank you
I have this problem as well, but it's not consequent. 7 times of 10 it's working as expected.

I’ve recently upgraded from an S2 to an S3 and have a slight issue. When I’m out the house and connected via a data connection (O2 giffgaff) all is great however when I get back home or to a saved wifi spot my phone will not automatically connect to it whilst the screen is off. I have to litterally wake the screen from sleep/lock mode to the home screen where I can see the data connection still on then soon after it will switch to WiFi with the connected confrimation message.
Surley I shouldnt have to wake my phone when coming in range to a saved WiFi point in order for it to connect to it, my S2 never had such issue and automatically connected to saved points. Earlier I went down to the shop and used the data connection whilst there, come back to work and hadn’t woke my phone for about half hour, turned it on and it started connecting to the wireless. The connection still works when the phone is in sleep/lock screen as I still recieve emails etc so it's not cutting of data connections completely when sleeping so I'm a bit puzzled by this, I haven't tested this vice versa WiFi to data but I'm sure there must be a simple setting somewhere.
Any help greatly appreciated.
I noticed this earlier on, I was out all day, returned home and wifi wouldn't auto connect, I had to disable and re enable wifi

It's strange I can't quite work it out, I tested it the other way round and it seemed to automatically connect to mobile data when there was no saved WiFi in range so it only seems to be an issue with auto connecting to WiFi.
I'm going to try a few more tests.

You could try deleting the saved network and adding it again. It has happened to me before and that has fixed the problem.

Cheers, will give this ago and will let you know what happens :fingers-crossed:
After updating to LRX21Q and LRX21R I get random disconnects on 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz. It sees the network and is connected but sometimes it drops it or I get the exclamation point on it without an internet connection. If I toggle wifi on and off or just switch between the two bands it goes back to normal. So far, I've only seen it while surfing in Chrome or streaming videos over my LAN. I didn't have any of these problems before on the previous firmwares.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
Same problem

Yep, i have the same problem while playing 8 Baal Pool. Other devices (nexus 5, ipad etc) do not have disconnecting problems.
Same here .. Sometimes I have to reboot to get it working again .
Ditto

Same here. Seriously irritating. :-\
I don't actually get the exclamation mark, but I do think I have the same problem. Sometimes refreshing Facebook or trying to display a web page or a Wikipedia page will take forever, for no clear reason. On another android device and the PC on the same internet connection there's no speed problem at all, and after a reboot it's solved on the Nexus 9 as well. It is indeed seriously annoying.
Got the same problem.
It used to happen sometimes on L but happens a lot more now that I have R.
I have to go to Settings/WIFI and select router again, also does not find router on initial boot up.
My wifi is blinking and wont connect... just started happening.
Wont even connect, eventually just fails and yeah... :c
Have you tested on another wifi network?

Its not the network. The wifi itself loops. The icon flashes and says turning on wifi but it never works
Yeah, occasionally I'll get disconnected from my home and work Wi-Fi. It's annoying. Used to never happen on my nexus 5.
Have you tried rebooting your router?
Have you removed the Wi-Fi from your list of saved Wi-Fi, reboot phone, than reinstalled the Wi-Fi?
So i have a problem with my wifi. Whenever im browsing reddit/facebook or similar apps, at some point images just stop loading, same with games like Fate/Go, i just get disconnected from the server and i have to disable and enable wifi again. This only happens on wifi.
I tried restarting the network settings but that didnt help.
This is not my home wifi connection problem since other devices work just fine.
My phone is Oneplus 6 8/128
Hi
I'm experiencing some difficulties with mobile hotspot.
I connect to P30 Pro's wifi hotspot with my laptop and try to download something. the process of downloading is laggy. downloading stops every few seconds and then continues on.
it happens in playing online games too. I get disconnected every few seconds.
Is anyone having this issue with their device?

This could be your carrier rather than the phone.
Carriers can restrict or disable the use of the hotspot. Just check that your contract allows for personal hotspot connections.
Other than that, make sure your phone is connecting using 4G (for the mobile network) and not 3G. If it connects using 3G you need to find another location.
Go to settings\wireless & networks\personal hotspot\more\AP band
Change it to 2.5 Ghz or 5Ghz
This should do it.
Fine here, I use it regularly.
