Listnr report with logs mentioned in the description: https://listnr.corp.google.com/report/85449058267

Other reports the mention Wifi issues when using Android Apps:
(1) https://listnr.corp.google.com/report/85462898049

Filed an internal bug for this to check Android App Compatibility: http://b/80317721

(Bulk Edit) Adding the new conops Chrome OS hotlist to all open issues with the "#CBC-RS/TC-watchlist" tag, our former tracking tag.

Update:

Note that my WiFi router is an ASUS OnHub SRT-AC1900.

Similar reports from another TC with a different Chromebook model and different router. 

We will both be sending feedback reports tagged:
#WiFi-out-of-range

Currently working with Google WiFi support to see if it is somehow caught in logs. Case ID [5-3619000022887]

The issue has been observed while Android app was running, and when it wasn't. Also noted when on Hangouts.

When outage appeared on Chromebook, my phone (Pixel 2 XL) was not showing problem with WiFi, neither was a Windows laptop.

I have seen the issue on my Acer R11 cyan, as well as the other TC's R11.

Here's the feedback report mentioned in comment #6:
https://listnr.corp.google.com/report/85528716701 (with logs)

I would have preferred to open a separate bug on this, but there are posts on the Community Forum with a link to this bug.

Retitling the bug, as the original filer no longer believes that this issue is tied to use of Android apps. Seems like the "out-of-range" errors in logs.

Will pull up other user feedback reports about this issue, but it's challenging to separate out various Wifi-related issues without examining each log file.

This may be a dup of/related to https://crbug.com/667083 (Wifi connection gets dropped intermittently, unable to connect to any networks or recognize any until restart)

From another user on the Forum:
"My Chromebook has a bug where it will suddenly disconnect from the internet. The Wifi symbol will appear to be greyed out and not show any of the many networks in my locale which normally show off. There is no way to reconnect unless you restart the machine. This happens frequently, sometimes two or three times in an hour. I occasionally get a few days off but then it will return. I have Powerwashed the machine to no avail. This happens no matter where I am.

I've noticed on forums that this is a common theme with Chromebooks and it happens on machines made by a wide range of manufacturers so I believe it is software based rather than hardware. In 2012 Google released some sort of statement that they were aware of this bug and working on it and as that was many, many years ago now I'm hoping for a quick fix! It began pretty much exactly as my warranty ran out."

Hello all, 

It appears we are getting more reports for this issue on the product forum: 
https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/chromebook-central/OlZIAQI6JMw

Thanks!

aashutoshk@ - please check if you are able to repro this.

Cannot reproduce the issue with OnHub and Netgear router. Device was auron_yuna running (10575.58.0) latest stable image.
The device was connected to channel 6 / channel 149 when the errors occurred (As  seen in some logs). So tried configuring the Netgear router to use channel 6/channel 149 but could not replicate the issue.

I just experienced another loss of wifi. This time using my cyan, while on a public wifi location (not my home OnHub). I filed a feedback report from this email account, with the tag #WiFi-out-of-range

At this point, I believe I have eliminated my Chromebook (happened with both my yuna and cyan), and my router (happened at home and away).

This time, I was not running any Android apps when the problem occured, so that probably eliminates Android issue.

Here are the links to Listnr reports with #WiFi-out-of-range:

Hello, 

It appears we are still seeing reports for this issue on the product forum as well. There have been 7 updated threads on this issue today. 

Thanks!

From comment#17& #18, a couple of reports for Eve and Cyan devices. We will check if we can reproduce the issue on these devices first and report back. 

Can reproduce this issue on Cyan M69-10888.0.0

 Issue 863177  has been merged into this issue.

@kirtika is this something you could take a look at? I know multiple people who are unable to use their Pixelbooks at the SF airport due to out-of-range errors, despite every other device being able to connect.

Note - I just sent a feedback report tagged #WiFi-out-of-range. I still get occasional out of range errors.

I'm scouring the web for solutions to my frequent wifi drops (different routers/network setups, same difference). I've done a powerwash and all the basic troubleshooting advised by Google. I can't find a pattern as to what triggers the irrecoverable wifi crashes. This issue seems to be getting more severe with every Chrome version update.

My logs show the "ERR kernel: [ 6482.063693] pcieport 0000:00:1c.0: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Corrected" and the "Failed to wake NIC for hcmd" errors I've seen in several threads around here.

Log extract for GOOGLE Swanky, BIOS Google_Swanky.5216.238.150 [stable] Chrome version 69.0.3497.120 attached in case it helps. 

A fix would be much appreciated.
