Android Nougat is the most-anticipated software that promises technologically forward features to any smartphones. The first handsets to receive the Nougat update are the Google Nexus 6P and Nexus 5X, however, there were reported Wi-Fi connectivity issues seen.

Some users of Nexus 6P and Nexus 5X shared their dismay over the Wi-Fi problems that they experienced after upgrading their device to the latest Android Nougat. Good thing, a solution has been discovered and it is as simple as upgrading the devices or resetting the network.

Although Google remained silent about the Android Nougat Wi-Fi problems, some users found a way to resolve the issue by upgrading their gadget via the use of custom ROMs. This is the best fix that can be applied so far as users are yet to see a solution issued by the search engine tech giant.

There are also some users who found a solution by resetting their networks, but these have not been effective to others. Users would access their Settings and choose "Back & Reset" to delete the network settings. The downside of it is that the users will have to input pertinent details again.

Another solution is to put the device in sleep mode. This can be done by opting the "Keep Wi-Fi During Sleep," option, which can be found in the Setting menu's "Wi-Fi" option. It is necessary to restart the device so as to see a successful Wi-Fi connection.

The Android Nougat Wi-Fi problem is one of the major issues seen in the software. There is also a report regarding a users' complaint about the handsets' battery being drained faster, aside from the Bluetooth connectivity problem.

Nevertheless, Android Nougat is still being sought-after for its promising specs, including the multitasking capabilities that allow more convenience. It is expected that Google will come out with an update, or any solution available, to address the issue.

In the meantime, the mentioned tricks can be tried by the users to fix the problems.
