Welcome to Android Central. Have you tried rebooting the router? Perhaps changing WiFi frequency band from auto to 2.4GHz in Advanced Settings?

i tried a partition cache wipe too... still the problem persists. The wifi network gets saved but drops within 2-3 sec when it gets connected. one thing what i observed is that the IP of Wi fi vanishes n occurs. and the Mac too.. any solution?

My Moto G 2014 was great for about 6 months. Within the last two weeks the WIFI has been dropping for all wifi connections...home, gym, public spots. I've tried rebooting, wiping cache partition, my software is "up to date".....nothing is working. I don't know what else to do. I really like this phone but I many have to trade it in for something better. Any help would be appreciated.
