Hello,
I find the WiFi on this phone to be quite unreliable with my BT Smart Hub. The connection will intermittently stall and send no data. I have tried different modes, switching between 802.11ac to 802.11n to 802.11g but it makes little difference.
Is Sony aware of a problem here?
Thanks,
Paul
Hi Paul,
Welcome to the community.
I'm just going to try to find some answers for you. In the meantime, maybe someone else in the community might have some ideas.
Thanks,

Hi @paul4os
First question: How is it in safe mode?
There are occasions that an installed app is causing trouble.
By booting in safe mode only the preinstalled apps will start.
Second:
I presume you did reset your BT Smart Hub as well.
From the manual:
To check if your router is Wi-Fi certified
Look for the Wi-Fi CERTIFIED logo or phrase on the product packaging or in the product literature, or search the Wi-Fi CERTIFIED products database on the Wi-Fi Alliance website.
Router Settings
Add your device’s MAC address to the MAC filtering table of the Wi-Fi router. Some routers require your MAC address.
For instructions on adding MAC addresses to the MAC filtering table of the router, refer to the router user guide or contact your router manufacturer.
To check the MAC address of your device
Other option:
Reset network settings on your device.
settings -> type <reset> -> find reset network settings
How is your device's connection to other routers?
Hi, did you try the steps in the article in the following link: https://www.sony.co.uk/electronics/support/mobile-phones-tablets-mobile-phones/articles/00235782 ?
No problems here at home and no problems at work with different setup. Might be your BT Smart Hub the culprit.
No is working 100% here via a Linksys box out to VM. Flawless in fact since day one.
Hello,
I'm having the same problem on my Xperia 1 II. Wifi has become unusable. My second phone Xperia XZ works fine. My router is Synology RT1900ac.
