Earlier this month, we had reported on a number of Google Pixel 6 series users complaining about their smartphones facing issues with the Wi-Fi. Now, the company has officially acknowledged the issue and has confirmed that it is working on a fix.

The news arrives from the official Reddit account of the search engine giant that posted a statement on Pixel sub-Reddit earlier this week. In the statement, the company says that “Hey u/cheesehead78. Thanks so much for reporting this issue, we’re sorry that you’re experiencing it. After some investigation, we identified the root cause and determined that it impacts a very small number of devices. Of course, we realize this is a poor experience and immediately developed a software fix that will be available in the next Google Pixel Update, rolling out in March.”

For those unaware, Pixel 6 users have been facing troubles with Wi-Fi, like not being able to turn it on, in the first half of this month. The issue began appearing after people updated their device to the second February update that was released previously. And now, the brand has stated that they are working on a fix, and users can see a software update rolling out sometime in March 2022.

Although, many have expressed their disappointment with Google for taking so long to fix some of the basic features of their smartphones that are not working properly. One Redditor said that “How in the world is it acceptable to break Bluetooth+wifi in early Feb and push a fix over a month later? This is shameful.” He further added that “Also, as someone who has reached out to your support team on three separate occasions about this issue I can attest that they are wholly unprepared to help. They have no idea what’s going on and all wanted to warranty my P6P with a new phone. Google needs to do better.” (Via PhoneArena).
