Wifi Issue

i have a problem with a new XA2, don't detect correctly any wifi in the range , where other Sony Xperia device work correctly.

I try to reset to factory default but don't solve the problem.

it seems that the signal receiving antennas have some problems because, if I move near the access point in a certain position, the wifi is seen and I can connect.

I somewhat have the same issue, although I can detect my home Wi-Fi, it is not in a good range. The range is decreased to other phones. Could be because this is a phone that is meant to be in a medium range type of phone but I think this could be an issue because your Wi-Fi is hiding it's SSID and might have to manually input the network.

Bump.

I am having the same issue. I live in an apartment and I can see my neighbour's wifi networks but my own is not even visible even though I also have a Dell laptop and 3 Samsung devices that can connect just fine. Furthermore there are certain password protected networks I just can't connect to. I feel like I wasted my money because this phone forces me to depend on data networks unless I go to Starbucks (I can connect to their wifi via their web portal there.)

Same issue here, No longer detecting my WiFi 5Ghz band after updating to Pie, WPS Push Button and WPS PIN entry was no longer availabe under WiFi preference.

Hoping and waiting that the new patch will fix the issue..

Hola! Tengo un problema con mi Sony Xperia, no logro conectarme a diferentes wifis. Lo que no puedo encontrar es la manera de entrar a los portales, o que los portales se abran en el Google de mi teléfono. No sé si estará bloqueado de alguna manera. Me resulta imposible arreglar este problema.

I also have the problem with Wi-Fi 5 GHz after update to Pie. The phone loses connection very often now. 2,4 GHz works well.
