I have BT Whole Home with four disks. My previous phone was a Samsung Galaxy A70, and I was easily able to set it up so that it seamlessly reconnected to wi-fi as I passed around the house from the area controlled by one disk to another.
My new Galaxy A90, however, won't do this, whatever settings I use - as I move from area to area it either pings and pops up to tell me that it has signed on to the network (which I can sort of live with), or prompts me to sign in (which I can certainly not live with!).
My A70 never displayed (and still doesn't) this behaviour, moving seamlessly from one disk's area to another.
Is there a way of configuring the system so that the A90 recognises the network as being one instead of four? The network (BTWhole-Home-3HN) is the one that all other devices in the house - and everybody else's devices when they visit - connect to with no problem at all, and I'm wondering whether the A90 as a specific model has problems with a mesh system.
In case more detail is helpful in diagnosis, here is some:
I have deselected as many options as I can on the A90, but the behaviour persists - I have Wi-Fi and Auto Reconnect switched on, and also Turn on Wi-Fi automatically and Hotspot 2.0 ("Automatically Connect to Hotspot 2.0 Wi-fi networks"), but the following are off: Phone visibility, NFC and payment, Flight Mode, Advanced Calling and Messaging, Nearby device scanning.
I also switched off 'Switch to Mobile Data'. The reason for this is as follows: when I moved through the house - if this option was switched on - the instant another disk picks up the signal, the phone would switch to 4G, and almost immediately prompt me to sign in to the wi-fi network.
Incidentally, for the purposes of diagnosing the cause of the A90's behaviour, I had also switched off the wi-fi on the A70, just in case that had a bearing on the problem.
I'd very much value anybody's guidance in this matter.
