I believe I may have found a solution. I have purchased the Samsung Galaxy 24 Ultra and so far have not had any issues with dropping connection, connects great to wifi 7 on the orbi 970 series. I have done testing all throughout the home and it will not drop, sometimes it will get on 2.4 or 5ghz but after a few minutes speed tests are back up to 1gbps.
Thanks for letting us know that something different works. Google and NG will need to get the Pixel issues fixed. I presume that's in progress.
Good Luck.
absolutely, I just upgraded to the new firmware yesterday and it still had the same issue on the pixel 8 pro, however the phone would start to automatically try and reconnect. I agree on the NG and google collaboration. I have to have a working, fast, and reliable phone/wifi/cellular for work and saw the samsung was being released and got the 24 ultra out of desperation. I received it on 2/3/24 and still have not experienced any connectivity issues. Will continue to monitor.
And this FW you go directly from NG?
Thanks for the details. Ya, Google and NG will need to address the Pixel issue.
- Yes, any FW installed is directly and only from NG.

V9.11.0.1 was pulled and most current is v9.10.4.1. You can keep v.9.11.0.1 if your not seeing any major issues.
This user has a beta from NG support. If you feel the need for help, please reach out to NG support.

Ok no problem, so basically NG hasn't offer that beta publicly as yet ?
Correct. Only to those to ask.
any updates on this new firmware update which would fix the pixel 8 issues?
So, update. Even the Samsung 24 Ultra has started with the same issue, wifi calls are dropped which could be a handoff issue and sometimes the wifi will flip off back to data when next to one of the satellites just like the pixel 8 pro. There is one spot where I work if I don't move around will stay online next to the router. Maybe it will work some day.
