I had the same issues and decided to see if I could fix it myself. And I did!
I pulled the back cover off. It was very easy and I was able to use my short finger nails to pop the back off. the back cover has 3 integrated antenna's that connect with the main body using spring contacts. Each antenna is labled - "GPS", "NFC", "Wifi". I bent the Wifi spring fingers up 10 degrees or so. This allowed them to make better contact with the antenna on the back cover.
Problem solved. No more connectivity issues at all.
Note that prior to this fix, I had good signal strength. It was just taking forever to load pages. Like packets were getting malformed or something.
So if you have wifi problems, give this a shot. Its low risk IMO.
