do a soft reset. or check your router for any issues ;) good day

Stop suggesting this as it won't fix ALL problems.

OP, check for sources of interference such as cordless phones as they can cause devices to drop a network connection even if it's a strong enough signal.

It doesn't.
But its a simple thing to try that does fix some things. no harm in trying.

Is your phone nearly out of range of the router? Could be a weak signal.

Yes but this is the same guy that's suggested it on several threads for things that a simple reset won't cure.

"Hey so I shattered my screen..."
"Soft reset!"

I jest though, I haven't seen those firsthand, just joking.

It can be a cause of interference, doesn't mean it will be. I have a cordless phone positioned right next to the router I'm using but it will automatically select the clearest channel.

Microwaves can also interfere with a wireless signal as well but, again, it doesn't mean that it will.
