Android 17 Triggers Wi-Fi Bug on Pixel Phones 1 Day After Rollout
3 articles · Updated · Android Police · Jun 17
Summary
Pixel users who installed Android 17 report Wi-Fi showing as connected while apps fail to pass data, with complaints surfacing a day after the update began rolling out.
Reddit reports cited by Android Authority suggest the issue hits various apps but appears more common in Google services, while mobile data continues to work normally.
IPv6 enabled on the router has emerged as a user-discovered workaround for some affected devices, though at least some Pixel owners say they have seen no problem across multiple networks.
Google has not announced a fix in the report, and the issue may push users who have not updated yet to stay on Android 16 despite Android 17's new multitasking, creator and foldable gaming features.
