Mine was the same back to samsung twice the last time they changed the card tray and this seems to have cured it

Hi All
I am with talktalk fast fiber for my Internet and they have a self test facility which is done automatically
When I carry this out it shows my four devices that are connected
Galaxy Tab 2 tablet
My PC
Samsung TV
Galaxy A40
All except the A40 come back as no problems But it always reports the A40 as error facing's latency issues
There response to fix this is remove number of devices
But Tablet an PC aare not on all the time Same with TV
Anybody else have wifi issues or any test as run as device maintenance it does not include wifi and can not see any settings

Hi All
5 days in and stuck again i am unable to connect to any public wifi Trains Buses and street wifi or any free wifi it says insecure site
I have tried to change setting as someone suggested but still no connection still says insecure
Connect to mine at home any any friends other wifi
I think the issue maybe its any wfifi thas does not require a password and only ask you to accept terms and conditions
Called in at Samsung shop they are baffled connected to there wifi no problems but would not to to City free wifi
I am booked in next week to see a expert and they may flash software or change phone
This is a major issue for me as use free wifi all the time
Only been with Android 5 days have put sim card back in my iphone works perfect
Clear google catch
Reset wifi connection
