Wifi Radio Stopped Working

[bnceo]

Over the past week, the WiFi radio has ceased to work properly.

When I turn on WiFi from anywhere, it will automatically shut itself off. I even tried a factory reset and still nothing. Does anyone have solutions or do I need to take this to Samsung warranty?

Its just a setting. Go into wifi settings and press the menu button. When the menu comes up, choose advanced. Then change wifi sleep to never. If that's not your problem then it could be warranty time

Yeah, I sent it in and it worked for maybe a day or two. I'm starting to think it's a lemon. Will call Samsung Galaxy hotline on Monday.

Just an update here:

Samsung will only keep trying to repair the phone. Considering that it broke a day after I got it back, I have no faith in them. Decided to try the AT&T Warranty hotline and I'm getting a new (most likely refurb) phone. Which is all I wanted. So Samsung got a bad review when I got their latest survey. AT&T came through.
