in Nokia 5.1 Plus

I'm currently using nokia 5.1 plus phone and ihave problem with wifi, these problem need long explanation:

Before the problem, i was able to connect to my home wifi from a distance of 100-130 ft but now i'm unable to see the wifi name in wifi settings i.e wifi can't get wifi signal but when i go near to the router (2-4 ft) it is connected .

First i think its my router problem and i replace almost every thing and reset my phone. But problem exist.

What to do?

    I have the same problem. after some time, it ceases to connect to the wifi router. only rebooting the phone helps, but for a while, then again the connection problem. This problem appeared after the February update.

    I have a similar problem. A few days ago my internet provider changed my router, Since then, every time I put the phone down for a while, the phone loses internet access; the signal keeps coming to the phone, but it stops having internet access, and it only happens to me with this phone, I have other phones and they don't have any problem with internet access. I tried resetting the network settings, but the problem continues.

    HMD are fixing it before the official release of Android 10. So please request you to have patience.

    My Nokia 5.1 Plus has got upgraded to Android 10, however it seems the problem has still been existing.

    Where a Huawei phone can get Wi-Fi signal stably, Nokia 5.1 Plus lost the signal often, which about 5m far from Wi-Fi access point within a house.

    It looks like that Wi-Fi signal reception is weak and unstable on Nokia 5.1 Plus even after upgrading Android 10.

    hi, i have a similar problem.

    when ever i restart my router my wont list my own wifi! so i cant connect back.

    i have to make some changes in router settings everytime i wanna connect back so my 5.1 plus would list it as available.

    this is driving me crazy, old crap phones can ezly connect back with no issue.

    FIX THIS NOKIA!

    i believe i have found a permanent fix!

    for any body having any kind of wifi issues just login to ur router settings and change your security option from WPA2-PSK to WPA-PSK!

    DONE!

    after that if u get stuck on obtaining ip address, just forget the network and when u try to connect back go to advanced tab (in the menu that asks u for ur password to connect) and switch from DHCP to STATIC, enter the pre-written stuff ur good to go!

    no more issues!
