[Nougat] Wi-fi not reactivating after sleep

[Filip777]

I have a question. I have "keep WIFI on during sleep" option set to "Never".
for example,

-1. Wi-Fi is enabled. I put my phone to sleep.
-2. When I wake up my phone from sleep after 30 minutes or more of not using it, the wifi does not reactivate itself (it's off, no icon in statusbar), but when I go to settings, it says that Wifi is enabled. (look at the screenshot below)

I want to know if this is normal or what ? Please someone test it. I am currently on stock Nougat, but this issue was happening to me even on previous Android.

It reads "Tap to select a network". Do you have an option to remember your network and connect to it when in range?
