My new S25 is dropping wireless connection constantly. My old S21 kept right next to it is perfectly fine. 

Wifi6e

The only connection change i see is S25 - WPA3 connection while S21 - WPA/WPA2. 

It keeps saying WPA3 connection is required. 

I have Xfinity. The latest gigabit connection and latest router. 

Any help would be appreciated.

I experienced unstable Wi-Fi connections on my Galaxy S25.
The issue was resolved by going to Settings → Wi-Fi → Network details → MAC address type,
and selecting Device MAC address instead of the randomized one.
I hope this will be addressed in a future software update.

Thanks for this information. I just turned this off for my home wifi, and I'm hoping it does the trick. I actually had similar issues with work macbooks at our office's wifi due to randomization of MACS, so this feels like a potential actual solution (and reason why the problem is occuring). I really hope Samsung looks into this.

This is definitely not a viable solution for me! I very much doubt anyway that it does anything that could not be done in a less destructive manner.
