One of the most frustrating issues Android users can have is to get a brand new phone and experience Wi-Fi connection problems. After doing a bit of research, it looks like this is actually a pretty common issue\u00a0and a lot of users are dealing with it.<\/p>\n

Therefore, if your phone keeps disconnecting from Wi-Fi, you’re in the right place, as we believe that we found the best solution. And it’s not difficult to apply at all!<\/p>\n

Why is my phone constantly disconnecting?<\/h2>\n

When you’re experiencing such problems, it’s mostly because your device has an issue with the wireless drivers. However, it’s not always the case!<\/p>\n

For example, if you’re dealing with this problem on a laptop, you can easily update the drivers and you’re all good to go. But things change when it’s happening on a smartphone or a tablet.<\/p>\n

How to prevent an Android device from disconnecting from Wi-Fi<\/h2>\n

Newer Android devices are initially testing the connection before accepting a Wi-Fi network. However, there are cases in which they will incorrectly detect a poor Internet connection, even though the connection works absolutely fine.<\/p>\n

And this is one of the reasons why your phone keeps disconnecting from Wi-Fi. The good news is that you can adjust the settings of the device and make it connect properly.<\/p>\n

Depending on your phone model, go to Settings > Wi-Fi and press on the three-dot menu in the upper right side. Here, you will see the Advanced sub-menu. Tap on it.<\/p>\n

Here, you will see an option going by the name of “Avoid Poor Connections”<\/strong>, “Auto Network Switch”<\/strong>, or “Smart Network Switch”<\/strong>. Again, it depends on the phone.<\/p>\n

Once you find this option, simply disable it. By this, your phone will no longer see the wrong quality of your connection, so it should stay connected properly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
