Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition - Wifi keeps turning off

Hi,

I've had my Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 edition for more than 1 year and until a couple of days ago I had no problems. Then suddenly one day I was unable to connect to my home wi-fi.

I tried resetting the router and powered off the tablet, still no success. Then today I put more effort into it and discovered that the wi-fi keeps turning on and off. It turns on, scans for wi-fi networks for 3 seconds and then disconnects.

I even tried the factory reset - no success. Wifi keeps turning off.

Any help would be much appreciated

Android Version: 4.2.2

Thanks!

Welcome to Android Central! Go to Settings>Wi-fi, tap Menu>Advanced, and see if there is an option for "Avoid Weak Connections"--turn that off. See this guide for more tips: http://forums.androidcentral.com/am...roubleshooting-wi-fi-connection-problems.html

If none of that works, then it might be a hardware issue with the device's wi-fi radio.
