The HTC One M9 and HTC One M9 Plus have been reported to be have a problem with the WiFi connection that gets terminated and automatically switch to the phones Internet. A common issue that makes the WiFi connection dies is because of a weak WiFi signal that no longer can connect the HTC One M9 to the Internet. But when the WiFi signal is strong and the connection ends, this can be a frustrating problem and we’ll explain below two ways that you can fix this issue.

The method behind the HTC One M9 WiFi connection switch from WiFi to data is based on the WLAN to mobile data connection option that is activated in the Android settings of the HTC One M9 and HTC One M9 Plus. This settings is called “Smart network switch” and was created on the HTC One M9 to automatically switch between Wi-Fi and mobile networks, such as 4G and LTE to create a stable network connection all the time for the smartphone.
