Unwanted Switching from Mobile Network to Wifi

[Agravina70]

Hello,
I have a note edge with 5.1.1. on AT&T. It continuously switches from mobile network to wifi connections on its own even with the Smart Network Switch option off. This is a significant issue as I constantly lose connection when the phone goes from a stable mobile network to wifi signals that either are weak or require acknowledgment or passwords. How can I prevent this from happening and stay on mobile network connections unless I voluntarily switch?

Any help will be tremendously appreciate it.

Thank you,
AG.

Can't you just turn the Wifi off and when you need it, turn it back on?

When I do, it comes back on by itself. It is the strangest thing. Also, if it were to work properly, it's an inconvenience because sometimes I get home and completely forget. Then my mobile plan is used while I could be on wifi.

In all fairness, my phone is only linked to one wifi connection and that is at my home. 7/10 times the phone automatically connects to the house wifi when I get close enough to the house. Every now and then I do have to hit the wifi button when I'm at home because it seems sometime my phone forgets. BUT, the second I turn the wifi on, it auto connects to the house.

T-mobile app (comes in built) has its own feature like smart switch which I turned off. Check if it is the case with At&t app.
