Help WiFi Problem - S3 won't remember settings

[kingdave]

Hi all,

I've just jumped from a creaky HTC Desire HD to the world of Samsung and I'm having an odd problem with my new S3.

I have no problems connecting to WiFi, the web etc as described in a few threads I've seen around the place, but I can't find anyone with the same problem as me.

As I say, I can connect to any WiFi signal around, however, if I reboot my phone it forgets those settings and I have to type in all the passwords etc again. It doesn't happen if I leave the coverage area of the signal then come back in, only if I reboot my phone.

Obviously, I try not to restart my phone too often, but on the odd occasion I have had to, I've always had to set up my WiFi connections again.

Any ideas?

Thanks

No one else got this problem, or any solution?

Thanks

Hello to you. Haven't had this particular issue....mine would hijack your thread.
I know you said it gets lost when you reboot the phone; have you rebooted your router yet?

Yes, but the problem isn't just limited to my home network.

My office has a BYOD policy and I also have to reenter the details here (there is no automatic sign out type policy) or at friends and relatives houses.
