Just like the title says. I'm on the newest firmware which supposedly has camera and Wi-Fi bug fixes. But I am connected to my Wi-Fi, excellent connection, and like every 5 minutes I am getting Wi-Fi disconnected toast messages. It's infuriating since I've had this all of 1 hour.
Any simple fixes I'm missing. My Wi-Fi settings don't seem to be messing with this (on the phone side) set to always stay on.
Thanks in advance

My unrooted Xoom does not want to keep connected to my wifi signal since the upgrade. I did not have this problem before, but now if I set the Xoom down for a minute or so, the screen on or not, and pick it back up it is no longer connected. Sometimes I find I am without a signal when clicking on a link just after entering a web site while actively surfing. I have the wifi disconnect policy set "Never." Is anyone else experiencing more problems since the upgrade?
No issues for me so far.
None here

The only wifi problem I have is the kernel wifi driver memory leak mentioned elsewhere. My xoom will eventually reboot itself if left on wifi overnight.

This really sounds like the WiFi driver leak problem as mentioned before. Your symptoms are exactly what I was experiencing, pre upgrade.
The workaround is to not set the disconnect policy to "Never". Since I have turned that off, I have not seen the problem.
Nope... no problem here... tried to restart?

Sorry, no problems here with wifi.

No problems here either.
Thanks everyone for all the input.
I must have missed the discussion on the wifi driver leak problem but will do a search on it. If you don't use the "never" setting, which one do you use? It looks like a compromise with the other two settings as I like to have the email and the internet ready and waiting when I turn the Xoom on.
To another suggestion, I have tried rebooting several times.
After further use, it now appears to be an intermittent problem as on occasion today it has not been dropping out.
Im also having this problem since the OTA with my Wireless tether connection.
The tiamat kernel fixes the wifi issues. Check it out in the dev section
i am running stock xoom non rooted. I too am seing issues occasionally with wifi. I have noticed the signal has become lower since the upgrade. My connection used to he good and now ranks as fair. I have restarted bit he the access point and the xoom no change
Ever since the new leak of 2.3.3, the Wi-Fi connection randomly drops.
But I discovered it was because of Mobile Network on. If I turn Mobile Network off, the Wi-Fi connection is immensely stable. Is there a work around this? I would love my Mobile Network & Wi-Fi to be working at the same time.
I'm having the same problems. Thank OP.
Not only do I get this but my gps doesnt even come close to working like it won't even show that its on in the notification bar. Any one know a fix?

Hi all..
I bought this device SM-T230 yesterday and am not satisfied with the WiFi, it's very very weak, and I can't use the Internet unless am sitting near the adapter I can't use it from the other room, is it a major issue with the device or just mine?
Turned out that the device keeps disconnecting and reconnecting continously every few seconds, please help me.

go into wifi advanced settings and set frequency band to auto/5ghz/2.4ghz , experiment
or check you home for phone lines that aren't filtered
if you have been having weather troubles call your isp, it could likely be something at their end.
Is it just the tablet that has this problem or can you check with a laptop or a phone to see if that's the problem...

My Tab 4 7 inch has this same issue. The wifi is horrible on this device.
However, if you go into wifi settings
Forget the network
Add a new wifi
Manually add a network
Type in the Broadcast SSID and auth information
It's better - not "good" but better.
I can't use my chromecast 60% of the time without walking out my room to the router and starting the cast there. Network latency is insane. I have 10 or 15 other wifi devices and they are all fine. It's just the Tab 4 that has an issue.
I have had my Galaxy for about 9 months now. Recently it has started to disconnect and reconnect to wifi constantly. It does this with my home wifi as well as guest, friends, establishments wifi. It will say "connected to xxxxx wifi" and then a few seconds later drop back to 4G and then a few seconds later say it's connected again. It does this over and over and constantly drains my battery now. Any ideas?

Which version of Android do you use? KitKat / Lollipop?
What about smart switch option in wifi menu? Is it on? If yes, try turn it off.
I've had this problem since Monday?
Thought it was my Router , but it happens across many other wifi connections?
Ive tried all the fixes on other sites but still occurring Could be the Lollipop Update?

So @ monday you have updated your phone?
Turn off Smart network switching in settings in WiFi section.
Dropping WiFi is common issue of lollipop. First recommended thing is wiping your phone completely via stock recovery.
Smart Network Switch is likely the cause -disable it

This Worked , Can't believe it was something so simple!
All the other fixes online are about the S4-S3 and its going into the WiFi Setting to reset and disable other functions!
Thanks m8ty
All of a sudden my G6s WiFi will stop working a few minutes after connecting to a network but still shows I am connected to the network, and only turning off and on the WiFi setting allows me to get back online for another few minutes.
This has been happening across multiple networks now so I believe it is the phone. 1.27.18 Firmware update did not solve the issue.
You can see in the screenshot the YouTube app loads forever even though I am connected. In fact my WiFi dropped out while writing this, so it took 2 attempts to attach the screenshot.
Wanted to know if any of you had this issue and how to resolve it!
Thanks!
I have the same issue on my LG H870 but about 2 to 3 times a day.

Actually I think it was my WiFi network, problem has stopped for now.
Did you do anything specific with your network ?

I have the same issue except it is progressively getting worse to the point the phone is almost unsable on wifi. I have changed the location setting to GPS only and have tried clearing the cache in safe mode and reset, but to no avail.
Also, very interested to know if the issue might be with my network settings.
