I've been having problems with my WiFi for a few weeks now. It started out slow and the connection would randomly drop. It has progressed and got to the point where I can't even detect ANY WiFi networks.

So after doing some research, I ran across the suggestion of putting your phone in the freezer to fix the problem. With nothing to lose, I tried a variant of this method and surprisingly, it worked!

I put together a small article and video describing the process.

Good news is that it worked, the bad news is that it was only temporary for me. Maybe some of you would have better luck.
 
I have noticed my phone doesnt seem to like wifi networks at the moment, including my home network. Just started happening a few weeks ago.

Have never heard of putting it in the freezer, might be worth a go!
