Re: wifi issues please help
I found a work around FIX for the issue!
Ok so after 2 days of trying everything under the sun i figured out how to fix this temporarily until i get rid of this peace of junk samsung product.
What i have :
Tmobile S8
Netgear Orbi with 1 satellite
---------------------------------
issue:
after the last update from tmobile i would constantly get a message that my connection was bad to wifi.
---------------------------------
FIX
Turn off 5ghz wifi
thoughts: I dont know about other wifi access points / router but in Netgear Orbi there is no option to set different SSID for 2.4ghz and 5ghz badwith so in orbi they are always broadcasted with same ssid.
what i did was just turn off the " Enable SSID Broadcast " option for the 5ghz frequency and this solved my issue

internet may not be available have getting this message all of sudden
