I bet your on Lollipop. You know half of the questions on Android Central are asking about bugs on some Samsung device. Never seen a Sony or LG. If your on Lollipop go back to KitKat. And there might be a battery saving option that turns of Wi-Fi when the screen is off. Like on my phone. If there is, disable that.

Try
Settings > WiFi > hit the setup button (3 dashes, bottom left) > advanced> and turn on "keep WiFi on during sleep"

Note: this is what my AT&T setup menu has.

That was already to always. It seems all the radios are weaker after the update. I used to be able to go 20 to 30 feet from my bluetooth in the gym...not anymore...it starts to cut in and out. The wifi seems to be lost easier when I put it in my slacks pocket.

There is no way to revert back to an older os and every oem has its issues. You see more about Samsung because there are more of their phones out in the wild.
