Try Another NetworkThe Network can be the problem why your Wi-FI is not connecting please try another network and see if that makes a difference. Try a network outside your home, just in case your router is the real problem.

Get Closer
Get closer  and get it real: get closer to the physical router. If you are experiencing connectivity issues, try moving closer to the router itself. This is especially true if you are connected on the 5Ghz frequency, since it travels shorter distances than the more ubiquitous (and more prone to interference) 2.4Ghz frequency.

Your Router Setting Check It
It's just a matter of switching to the other band on your dual band router. Try switching to 2.4GHz in your router's software settings. It has a wider range and may connect better to your Galaxy S7.

Make sure Wi-Fi is always on
In the Wi-Fi settings on your Galaxy S7, you have three options that control when Wi-Fi is on. If your connection is spotty, you'll want to make sure that Wi-Fi is always connected, even when your phone is asleep (i.e. the screen is off). Here's how!

•     Launch Settings from your home screen, the Notification Shade, or the app drawer.


• Tap Wi-Fi. Tap More in the top right corner of your screen.


•  Launch Settings, tap Wi-Fi, tap More >>


• Tap Advanced. 


• Tap Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep. 


• Tap Always.


• Tap Advanced, 


• Tap Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep, tap Always

This will stop your Galaxy S7 from disconnecting from your Wi-Fi network every time the screen turns off.

Turn off Power Saving Mode
Power Saving Mode slows your Galaxy S7's performance in order to conserve battery, which may be hindering your Wi-Fi connectivity.

Turn it off in the Notification Shade. If you have it on for a reason, then charge your phone and worry about Wi-Fi later!
