Wifi toggles off

Overnight, the wifi setting on my Samsung Galaxy toggles off. This happens if the phone is bring charged of not being charged so i do not see it being a power saving issue.

My Ipad is on the same network and its wifi does not shut off so I think it has to be a setting on my phone.

tomc212,

That's great info! I appreciate it very much. Can you go into your wi-fi settings and select this network? If you hold down on it, you'll have an option to forget the network. Go ahead and do so and when that is done, go ahead and add the wi-fi connection back. Let's see if that makes a change!

Thanks for the reply.

Unfortunately the setting on my phone in Wifi / Advanced is already set to keep wifi on during sleep / Always.

Wi-fi during sleep has three options: Always, Only when plugged in, Never.

Thanks for the reply.

The wifi advanced setting is set at always for "keep wifi on during sleep", which is the issue.
