@ARP_ASUS @gustaf_fl @Irene @chaithanya.gchaithanya.g @fussion_ASUS @laura @titmods please look at it .... Earlier it was the proximity sensor bug and now it is wifi ... Factory reset isn't the solution every time 🙄...

Considering this is a single case it's not ASUS. It's probably android that messed up the update.

Can you confirm please.. I've tried all the solution and even hard resetting didn't solve the issue. If flashing it will fix the issue them I'll do it. If you could please explain how and what's the best firmware to use

No, only the Rog5 has that issue and that's due to it's early SD 888 chipsets with faulty Wifi modules, the xiaomi suffers from the same. So stop being an ignorant user and stop spreading nonsense claiming that this is somehow common on the rog3. As far as the Rog3 is concerned this is most likely some update messing with a driver.

and as for your 2nd post, flashing raw firmware will more than likely fix it, factory reset only resets issues that are caused by configurations and not actual bad flashes, while raw flashing will almost entirely reflash the entire phone.
