Thank you for the update, JOSSTO29. I would expect a factory reset to help with the WiFi connection. When performing a factory reset, this is taking your device back to factory settings. However, it will not take your device back to a previous software version. You mentioned a similar issue with connecting to your home WiFi. I want to be sure we are on the same page. Are you also seeing an error when entering your WiFi password? If so, did this error state "Wi-Fi Password Not Accepted"? There was a known issue when using WEP security after a recent update and this was corrected with update SU6 version VS50115A. Please navigate to Settings>About Phone>Software Info>Software Version. Do you have the most recent update yet? If not, this was released just a few days ago and will be coming to you. In the meantime, please update your security settings from WEP to WPA/WPA2 for your home WiFi.

All,

 

This issue is currently under investigation with our device team and LG. Please use one of the newer security protocols for now if possible. Please also check your phone weekly for available updates that may be released to address this issue.

That's interesting that the factory data reset doesn't remove the update.  I feel kinda silly because that's the kind of thing I should have known.

Phone is updated to the current version VS50115A, problem began with this update. Will talk to landlord about changing security but I suspect that with this old router it may be all that it can handle.

Hello, seems I have a problem that popped up 6 months ago. 3rd week in November, cell phone won't maintain a Wi-Fi connection to my home router. I would connect, within seconds, the connection was disabled. I have reset the router, reset the cell phone, and even called my internet provider.  After confirming the router was functioning correctly and can get internet on my desktop as well as Hulu Plus on my Blue Ray DVD player. He tried to connect the cell, but was stomped as to what was happening. His research revealed a problem in which I need to contact my cell phone provider. I am a senior, with no twitter account. Please HELP!
