Fix Android WiFi Problem (Connecting and Disconnecting Wifi Frequntly)

Brief

Some people have reported that they are facing WiFi connectivity issues on their newly updated Nexus. While some of them complained that their connection has significantly slowed down, some reported that the WiFi is completely broken. Here how you can fix both the issues. Here’s how to fix Android Nougat WiFi Problem.

Solution 1: First we try the oldest and simplest solution – restarting the device. This eliminates most of the underlying problems. After your device has finished booting, turn on the WiFi and it should work. If it doesn’t, keep reading.

Solution 2: Another simple trick includes rebooting your router. Most of the time the culprit is the router and turning it off and on again fixes the problem. Waiting about 5 minutes before turning the router on is recommended.

Solution 3: If you still have the problem, reconnecting to the WiFi might help. Remove the WiFi connection and reenter the password.

Solution 4: Last fix is to change the frequency of the WiFi connection if your device supports it. To do so, tap on the menu button (3 vertical dots) when inside WiFi connection and bring up the advanced menu. If your device supports it, you should see option to change WiFi frequency band along with other options. Set it to automatic if none of the options work.

You should now be able to connect to and use WiFi without any issues on Android 7.0 Nougat. Note that this fix is for Nexus devices as Android N is available for them and other manufacturers tend to tweak their devices and put in their own skin and modifications. So if you have a Samsung device and facing this problem, wait for then to fix it. This fix may however work for all devices.
