Most times when they use their LG G7 to connect to the internet through Wi-Fi, the LG G7 will switch back to phone data and this happens every time. One of the common causes is that the WiFi you are trying to connect is not strong enough to browse the internet on your LG G7.

There are ways to solve this problem on your LG G7 and I will be explaining them below.

This feature is popularly known as “Smart network switch,” and it was added to the design of the LG G7 to make it possible for your LG G7 to automatically switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data such as LTE, to provide a constant and stable network connection all the time. However, LG has made sure that you can deactivate this feature if it’s causing you issues on your LG G7.
