How to Fix Samsung Wi-Fi Not Connecting
If your Samsung phone will not connect to Wi-Fi, the issue can come from the router, saved network data, or a network setting on the phone.
Quick answer
Restart Wi-Fi and your router first, then forget the network and reconnect. Reset network settings if only your Samsung phone has the problem.
Steps to fix it
- Toggle Wi-Fi and Airplane Mode, then restart the phone.
- Restart the router and move closer to confirm it is not just a weak signal problem.
- Forget the Wi-Fi network and reconnect with the correct password.
- Reset network settings or test a different Wi-Fi network if the issue continues.
What to check next
- If every device fails to connect, the router or internet provider is the likely cause.
- VPN and security apps can sometimes block Wi-Fi connections.
- Public networks may need a browser sign-in before internet access works.
