I periodically see WiFi connection speed slowdowns on S22 Ultra. The browser pages load slowly, YouTube videos buffer. The WiFi speed comes to normal after I toggle the WiFi radio, but becomes slow again over time.
All my other devices work well over WiFi and the router connection is good at 500 Mbps.
Didn't see anyone posted about this issue on this forum.
I searched around and there are multiple people experiencing the same problem with WiFi on S22 Ultra. The workaround is to use static IP or 2.4GHz radio.

I'm not having any issues with the WiFi on mine. That's faster than my PC. I'm using 5 GHz bands on my router.

The only wifi issue I am having is some of my apps don't work on my job's wifi. These apps worked fine on my job's wifi when I had my n20 .

Once I'm at home on wifi all the apps work fine and there are no slowed speeds.

Did you transfer your data and settings from your prior phone? I did, and my WiFi on the S22 Ultra was really slow when I first started using it. I found that forgetting the WiFi connection and setting it up fresh fixed the issue for me.

Are you behind a VPN? I've seen this happen when I'm behind a VPN running off my router. It's an issue with Android 12. I find if you run the VPN off the phone instead the speeds are much better.

No, no VPN. Seems like only issue with WiFi 6 connection.

Well the update didn't fix my wifi issue. I might do a factory reset on my phone and do a clean install to see if might help. Might not be worth it since it's only my work wifi that gives me the issues, but I didn't have this issue on my note 20 u. * Shrugs*

Gotcha ... hopefully fresh install gets it resolved
Hopefully. So far it's only two apps giving me the issues. I'm going to sit and check the rest before I take that measure. If it's just those two I'll probably just deal with it. Thanks for your help.

I was thinking maybe rolling back to the earlier version of each app if you can find it ...just a thought

The icon pack studio and the Galaxy store. The icon pack studio is in the Google store. I guess 8 can see if apkmirror has the apk for the Galaxy store.
Hmmm I see they have APK worth a shot if it allows you ..I thought it was a regular app not store ...

in checking the Galaxy store app on my Tab S7 , it does the same thing on my work wifi as my phone. Since I only use the Kindle app on my tablet when at work I never would have known.

Final verdict is that my work wifi isn't playing nice and I don't need to do a factory reset.

I've had this happen multiple times as well and toggle wifi and it works again. Not sure what's causing it either.

Mine was also a fresh install no restore.

I just got my unlocked version a few days ago and notice the same thing. It stays connected most of the time but overnight it will disconnect and say that the WiFi has no internet. I didn't restore anything either and a toggle of the wifi fixes it but kind of annoying. Hopefully a software update fixes it.
