Anyone in the hive have a solution for this? It is easy to find fixes online, but after numorus changes to setting the problem persists.
I am currently 6 feet from my home router and see the wifi turn on and off. This happens everywhere, it is not a router issue.
It looks like it's been a known problem with the S22 for some time, do you have the latest OS update and Google Play version installed? That may not fix it but it's a good place to start, Samsung is definitely aware of it. Looks like some common changes that have yielded some success are disabling the intelligent wifi options + wifi calling or doing a network reset in settings.
I have some sort of Samsung, and it matters not a whit where I put the router antenna in my house, it will not stay on wifi when I'm in the half bath off my bedroom. A magic dead spot, somehow.
In reply to Streetwiseguy :
Maybe a sheet of metal between the two (maybe a big mirror?), especially if it's closer to the router. I once heard of a guy who had a separate outdoor-only wifi AP hosted by putting the router near the peak of the house's roof with a small piece of metal below it that prevented the signal from reaching anywhere inside the house but allowed access from outside.
My S21 did the same thing. I really have come to dislike the last two Samsungs I had so I switched back to a Pixel and I'm loving life. I know that's not an answer to your question, but just letting you know you're not the only one.
My house has foil-backed drywall on the exterior walls. I had my WAP on one of these walls, and our TV would get kicked off of the Wi-Fi all the time, requiring a reboot to reconnect. The TV was only 10 feet away , and was installed on the same wall. Moving the WAP from that wall to the core of the house helped. I think the signal was being reflected off of the foil backing and this was causing interference. To this day, having the TV on that wall is not an issue--it seems like the problem was that the WAP was on that wall. Where is your WAP/router installed? If it's along an exterior wall, consider moving it if you can, at least temporarily, to test it.

My router is on an outside wall. But the problem can happen anywhere, on any system. Work, home, the mall, public library.
