My Google Pixel 9a won't pick up wi fi when I come into my house even though it will when I go into a neighbour's house and he can when he comes into mine. I got a new broadband supplier (EE) at the same time that I was changing from an old phone. My neighbour is with a different supplier. So, yes, it seems to be the combination of the Google Pixel and the EE router that is the problem. I have read on the internet that “If your Google Pixel 9a will not connect to your EE router (such as a Smart Hub 7), it is likely due to compatibility issues between the Pixel's advanced security settings and the router’s dual-band management” and I have set up a compatibility network on the router as suggested https://ee.co.uk/help/broadband/manage-use/how-to-set-up-compatible-wifi . It was still hit and miss whether my phone would pick up wi-fi automatically when I came home until I also turned off the phone's Adaptive Connectivity feature. Everything seems to work fine now.
Google Technical Support say that the links I have provided are not from authorized website partners of Google, that the problem is not recorded on their system and insist that the EE routers are compatible to Pixel phones. They recommend visiting the repair center - but unless they have an EE Smart Hub 7 router it would be impossible to replicate the problem.
Interestingly, this is my second new phone. The shop gave me a rebate for my first (Pixel 9) as they couldn't cure what now appears to have been this same problem!
