After installing the latest One UI 9.0 update, my Samsung Galaxy phone is no longer able to connect to my home Wi-Fi network. Each time I attempt to connect, my phone displays a “Failed to Connect” message.
 
I contacted my Internet Service Provider (ISP), and they informed me that multiple Samsung Galaxy users are experiencing the same issue.
 
This appears to be a potential software-related problem associated with the latest update. I would appreciate it if Samsung could investigate this issue and provide a resolution as soon as possible.
 
Thank you.

      maybe you need to forget network(your wifi), then you can re-enter your password again... maybe this can fix your issue

      I had intially restarted my gateway on my router. That didn't resolve the issue. Then reset my mobile network settings under General Management on my Samsung. Then power cycled device. Then reset Wifi and Bluetooth. Seems to be working fine now. Thanks.

      I did the same on my S24 Ultra. It connected to the wifi network at home. I left and when I returned home, it wouldn't connect again. Continued the same issue.

      I did connect to the hospital's wifi at Piedmont today for about 2 hours. When I left and came back it did not want to connect. At home, it only connects sometimes after a restart. My service provider checked my router to see if I had MAC filtering on and verified it wasn't. Their stating to contact Samsung for further help. Now, it's time for the wonderful game of "PASS THA BUCK"! I hope i win a prize that I can use this time.

      I have noticed that if band steering is on, it will not connect to the network, but after disabling band steering on my router and separating the bands into 5G and 2.4G, it does not connect to 5G but disconnects, saying internet is not available. However, I have tested with my Mac and am able to connect to both 5G and 2.4G, and the internet speed is good on both, so that rules out an issue with the network or router. I tried connecting to only 2.4G from my S24 Ultra, and it is able to connect; as of now, I am using the 2.4G band to write this as well. There is some software bug that is preventing it from connecting to the 5G band. I hope this helps, and I will be waiting for a permanent solution. Note: even when I turned off Wi-Fi 7, there is still an issue.

      My phone z fold 7, with new one ui 9, doesn't like to stay in wifi calling. It doesn't have an issue connecting to wifi. But wont show wifi calling and gives an error. T-Mobile had me reset wifi and Bluetooth settings and it works if I place in airplane mode or cycle phone. But as soon as I leave wifi and come back it wont connect and I have to go through it all over again.

      T-Mobile: Wi-Fi Calling isn't available (error code: 81).

      I am still experiencing the “Connection Failed” error when I return home from work and attempt to connect to my home Wi-Fi. So far, the only workaround I have found is to restart or power cycle my device, which temporarily resolves the issue and allows me to reconnect.

      This appears to be a recurring issue, and having to restart my device each time I return home is becoming inconvenient. I would appreciate further assistance in identifying and resolving the underlying cause of this problem.

      Okay im so glad i found this, i felt like i was losing my marbles! The only short term fix i have is either restarting my phone or turning off my data, airplane mode, turn off airplane mode, turn on wifi and it stays connected for a while then fails. Its driving me nuts!

      I'm so glad I found this thread. Hopefully Samsung will realize that the recent update is causing this issue. My phone still connects to all other saved WiFi networks except the home network. This is EXTREMELY annoying. I don't want to keep restarting my phone everytime I leave and come back home just for it to go back to "connection failed" a few hours later. I initially thought it had to be my home WiFi since that was the only connection not working but quickly realized all this started with that update.
