As the title states, Wi-Fi is randomly shutting itself off. Sitting about 10 feet away from my router, I look up at my status bar and notice I'm running cellular data out of nowhere. This happened several times. I had Adaptive Wi-Fi turned off initially but just switched it to On with Aggessive Switching to see if that helps. My carrier is AT&T.

Anyone else? Is there a setting I'm missing?
 
With WiFi on, tap-hold on the wifi symbol. On the next screen it should show the network you are connected to and any other available. In the upper right, tap on the 3 dots and then Advanced. Scroll down to WiFi control history and see if an app is turning it off.

Thanks for the reply. I checked it randomly since yesterday and found three apps on the list: AT&T Smart Wi-Fi, Gear S Plug-in and Smart Switch. Seems to be working fine though since I switched adaptive Wi-Fi on. I'll minute it for a few days. Thanks again.
