Reasons to get a Samsung there are many. From aesthetics, guarantee, their own software and Android compatibility, cameras, batteries … but those who have used them DFor a while they know that another reason is the large number of settings that Samsung allows you to configure.
Either with half a dozen ways to make screenshots or creating a powerful automation system with Samsung Routines, there are many ways to get the most out of a Samsung Galaxy phone. Although Samsung facilitates access to some of these functions, Others are much less obvious, and some are completely hidden unless you know where to look for.
An example is the Wi -Fi Connectivity Lab Settings menu. hidden in your Samsung adjustmentsand it is something that I did not know that it existed until recently and this is a pity because it contains really interesting functions. This is the way of accessing.
Once on the setting page, you have to look for the smart Wi-Fi button at the bottom and click on it. A emerging window will appear that will notify you that Connectivity Labs will be enabled if you continue clicking, So keep doing it until the new Connectivity Labs option appears under smart Wi-Fi.
Initially, there will be a graph of your time and use of Wi-Fi during the last week, including the specific bands we use. Okay, but there are many more interesting things. If we move we will find a long list of settings and options.
The first option of the list, inspection of domestic Wi-Fi, is especially interesting. Once we select it, We ask that we walk around our house while the function tests all access points and router bands, determining whether there are areas with weak signal.
There are also some useful settings to configure how the phone is kept connected to Wi-Fi networks and when it is disconnected. The “change to mobile data faster” adjustment, for example, will prevent a weak Wi-Fi signal for too long and that connects to mobile data before usual; Something we may want to activate if we have an unlimited data plan and we are not worried about the consumption of mobile data.
Automatic Operator Wi-FI reconnection is another interesting configuration. If we have an operator that facilitates the automatic connection to public Wi-Fi areas of the operator to complement the coverage. This function is activated by default, but if we do not want it to happen, it is possible to easily deactivate it from this menu.
There is also the option Customize the wifi list. From here, you can Activate a filter button on the main Wi-Fi network page. By pressing it, we can choose to see only safe networks, Wi-Fi 6 connections, etc.
Finally, if we click “Wi-Fi developer options” at the bottom of the “LABS connectivity” page, we will find Un completely new menu with even more Wi-Fi options to configure.
There you can see a list of all nearby Wi-Fi networks, along with the intensity of the signal, classified as “better”, “good”, “bad” and “worse.” If we are in an area with many public networks to choose from, This could be an excellent way to make sure you choose the best.
