    Galaxy S8 SM-G950W Wifi Exclaimation next to Wifi since Oreo Update

    You may want to do your research. TKIP is no longer considered secure, and is now deprecated. It's pretty similar to WEP encryption. So to those that think this is a fix, I would highly recommend against switching from AES to TKIP as you will be leaving yourself far more vulnurable.

    Galaxy S8 SM-G950W Wifi Exclaimation next to Wifi since Oreo Update

    Please note that I was very clear in stating my connection is great. I have am very technical, I have worked for in the Tech field for 20 years. So this is not a router, modem or signal issue. All other Wifi devices in the home are perfect and so was my S8 until Oreo. My S7 on Nougat is...

    My wireless router disappeared. How do I get it back?

    Have you tried power cycling it? Is it a modem router combo? Or do you have 2 separate device?

    Google Bombing Release

    True, but it seems like the Pixel 2 is just one issue after another. At least with the Note 7, it blew up and it was done :) Ha ha ha! So far, from what I can recall. - No headphone jack - Weird high pitch noises - Screen burn - And now, being shipped with no OS. But hey, some good news...

    Camera wont work galaxy s8+

    Have you tried SafeMode? It's possible there's an App running in the background that's taken over the camera? I would try Safemode, see if the camera works without issue, if so it's most likely software. If it still doesn't work in Safemode. Probably a hardware issue
