Toggle Wi-Fi on the phone

Did you say your Wi-Fi is not switching on? Try toggling it twice or thrice and that will give it a boost to start right away. It’s been noticed many times when you click on the Wi-Fi icon from the notification panel, it does not start itself due to any small issues that may have occurred when switching on the Wi-Fi. For a quick fix tap on the icon again (that’ll turn it off) and then, tap on it again to switch it ON. Repeat the same procedure twice or thrice and check if the Wi-Fi connection is established or not.

Toggle Airplane mode

you can try this alternative method if the Wi-Fi does not reboot or the connection to another network is not available. All you have to do is scroll down the notification panel, click on airplane mode or flight mode and turn it OFF. Try the same procedure multiple times and check if the Wi-Fi issues that you are facing are fixed.

Toggle the Wi-Fi router

Still not able to establish the Wi-Fi connection? Try toggling the Wi-Fi router instead only if it is your home or office and if you are authorized to do so. Go ahead and switch off the router for a couple of seconds, then turn it ON and check your network connection.

Restart the phone

In case your Wi-Fi is switching on or the Internet is not functioning even after the Wi-Fi is a connection is established, you can try this simple but powerful hack. Press and hold the power button to switch off the device and wait for a couple of seconds. Next, click the power button and turn on the phone, this should help eliminate the Wi-Fi problem.

• Scroll down the Quick Settings menu on your device and switch off Wi-Fi and Mobile Network.
• Once both are switched off, switch on the Airplane mode again by scrolling down the Quick Settings menu.
• Now that the Airplane mode is still active, switch on the Wi-Fi and connect to the network by heading over to the Settings.
