Wifi keeps turning off

Grayce — Sat, 14 Dec 2013 11:31:34 GMT

Every time I go to turn my wifi on to connect it just stays on for a minute without even trying to connect to anything and then turns off.

It's always stayed on before, even between wifi connections, so I don't know what the problem is... Heeellllppp

This will not solve your issue. I have the same problem and I have no other device that has such bad Wi-Fi reception. The signal goes to 1 bar in less than 5 meters of distance to the router. It constatly dies and re-connects on its own. It's quite frankly, the worst wi-fi connection I have seen on a phone.

Two things can help you: changing channels on your wi-fi router and testing how your device works on each one, or returning your phone to your retailer for repair. I recommend the second one.

I was also experiencing this problem.I just discovered that it is on the setting of the phone.
Go to Power Management- Check Low battery mode- then uncheck wi-Fi off
