Hello,

I'm posting this elsewhere too to cover a greater user base in the hope this is a more widespread issue among us s6 MM users.

This happens with most wifi points and isn't down to signal strength and is random. My phone will freeze briefly which is frustrating enough and normally whilst checking twitter or something then I glance up to see no icon for wifi or data... then 4G appears.. then wifi reconnects. This has certainly come into play since MM.

When I upgraded to 6 I did OTA. Felt it wasn't as fast as it should be and reset. Still not convinced I used Samsung smart switch to wipe clean and flash clean.

Am I alone with this glitch? It happens most days.
 
Did a full smart switch wipe, reset so now shall keep fingers crossed!!
 
Nowhere near as bad but happened once a day over last few days..
 
You can install samsung smart switch software and choose an advanced setting to perform a wipe of the device ad reinstall. It downloads the rom fresh and flashes it. A simple factory reset would reuse installer files etc whereas the above is a clean setup.
