Asked By Donald V Marsh 10 points N/A Posted on - 01/03/2015

I recently updated my Nexus 5 to android lollipop which of course is the latest version released by Google. WiFi used to connect with my device without any problems. But after updating my phone, I am having a lot of issues with WiFi connectivity. How can I resolve this issue? Is this a problem with all android lollipop updated phones? Please help.
