Thanks a ton. Your comment solved my problem and you saved my time from doing a back up and reset the phone...thank you.
i have had exactly the same problem for a day or two. while disabling "location>improve accuracy>wifi scanning" stops the bug temporarily it doesn't really solve the problem. wifi scanning is an important location feature when navigating. in narrow streets or in buildings one usually does not have gps reception, also the wifi scanning technique for determining the devices location is usually faster and uses less battery than gps (how ironic).
this bug is extremely annoying. i am on an unbranded, unrooted s5 on 6.0.1 (g900f). i can not believe that this also happens with s7 and pixel phones, this is really ridiculous. if anyone finds a permanent solution for this problem, please tell us!!!

I had this problem last week I did a master reset and the problem came back. I went to settings-wifi-advanced and unticked allow scanning and bingo my wifi came back onI really need to find out which app I have that is causing this
I had this exact problem. I fixed it this way: Settings, location, improve accuracy and turn off wi-fi. So far problem seems to be fixed. I have a Galaxy S5 with ATT. I hope this helps someone.
