The ugly truth is that WiFi range varies with each model. You may be losing a lot of time rediscovering this.
Hi, I have an issue with my Samsung Galaxy s6. the wifi works but can't seem to locate signals from certain distances, my iPhone 5s has no trouble reaching and I am bewildered as to what the problem could be??
I've tried every possible idea in the book and all I can think of is to take it to a Samsung store. I fear the wifi within the phone might been to be replaced if someone could help me out that would be much appreciated.
