WLAN disappeared

From my Fairphone 5 my list of WLAN has disappeared. My Phone cannot access my Home Fritzbox any more which is easily accessed by my Laptop.

Any ideas how to re- install the access Welcome!

Wifi switched off, probably?

No- of course I checked that the WiFi ist working allright- I can access it with my Laptop with no problems

Also if I am within reach of another WiFi. f.i.at work, my Fairphone 5 does not connect…the Connect button has disappeared…

I was of course talking about the Wifi on your phone not the router.

If I try to connect the WLAN button jumps back into Off mode

Did you try connecting using a browser or an app automatically Was there an update before it happened or something like that. Try a reboot or reinstall to an older version

I had exactly the same problem. Also, a reboot seems to have fixed te problem (for now). I still wonder if it is just a coincidence that (at least 2) FP5 users experience this problem. I updated a couple of days ago to the latest firmware (FP5.VT2K.C.076.20251222), maybe that had/has something to do with it?

Hi Jacob, thanks for reporting. Actually in my case the WLAN issue occurred before installing the recent update. I was trying to fix the WLAN in order to be able to upload without using extra data space and it worked, so I was lucky. Hopefully not too many users have been experiencing this problem.
