I hotspot from my phone to my tablet and i also use the wifi at work. My tab A keeps losing the wifi connection. I dont have a problem with the tab 3 so i know it has to be the tab A

Hi, Check your Keep WiFi on during sleep options. These allow you to specify when to disconnect from WiFi. Go to Home > Apps > Settings > WiFi > more >Keep WiFi on during sleep. Hopefully you can stop it from disconnecting at all by choosing an option . This is taken from the User guide if my directions don’t make sense.

You should try getting the app ‘WiFi Manager’ from the play store. It will help. Hope this helps.

I had this issue and I found a fix for me. So I read so forums and found that some said that the Bluetooth could be interrupting the WiFi signal. I have a GHz and a 5 GHz connection on my router for my WiFi. I changed my connection to the GHz frequency on my router with my tablet. I always use a Bluetooth device because I have the Logitech Folio Bluetooth keyboard for the tablet. Since I change my WiFi connection to the GHz frequency I haven’t had a drop since.

Hi @Jennifer Guerra, It could be a loose WiFi antenna that is the cause of the problem, that is why it works close to the router and not further away. Could you please verify the model number, screen size and year of your tablet (you said SM-T350 Tab A 10.1)? Measuring the screen diagonally should give you an approximate “size” of the screen if you wish to verify the screen size According to what I have found out, a SM-T350 is a Tab A 8.0" tablet and not a Tab A 10.1” tablet. Here’s a link to a SM-T350 antenna to show you what it looks like if you decide to open the tablet and check if it is connected properly. Here are some links to other Galaxy Tab A models which show that the antenna is different in each model SM-T580 is a Tab A 2016 10.1" SM-T387 is a Tab A 2018 8.0” SM-T510 is a Tab A 2019 10.1" As you can see there are a lot of different Tab A models and the list goes on as there is also a Galaxy Tab A 10.1 2018 (SM-T590) as well, but unfortunately I cannot find the WiFi antenna spare part for it.

Hi, My galaxy tab T530 kept disconnecting. I have tried everything but nothing worked, untilI changed wireless mode settings on my router. From G/N MIX to B/G/N MIX, now everything works great! Hope it helps. :) BR, Miha
