Have you tried resetting the wireless router you are connected to? Give that a try and see if it helps. Otherwise, take a look at the suggestions provided by Jerry in his blog post: Android 5.0 Lollipop bugs got you down? Here's how you (might be able to) fix them | Android Central.

Let us know how it goes.

The update may have messed with your settings.

Go to Settings > Connections > Wi-Fi. Make sure that "Smart Network Switch is NOT checked. It can cause frequent switching between wi-fi and mobile data.*

You might also want to go in to wi-fi Advanced settings and make sure "Always Allow Scanning" is not checked. Otherwise, your device will always be scanning for wi-fi networks, even when wi-fi is turned off.

Once you have fixed your settings, you might try removing the battery for a couple of minutes, too.
