Samsung Phone Constantly Loses WiFi

Hello, I've seen this issue elsewhere but no comments from Netgear (for what seems like a year or more). WiFi on my PC and other devices works fine, but WiFi drops from my Samsung Galaxy S6 every 5 minutes or more. I will be returning this if there is no solution. 

 

Netgear tech, please provide an update. Thank you.

  • What FW version are you using?

    What OS is loaded on the phone?

     

    What security modes are you using on the router? WPA or WPA2.


    Have you disabled Beamforming, MIMO, Daisy Chain and Fast Roaming and IPv6? Disable IPv6 on the phone as well.
