Q: I am getting a Samsung Error: “Network disabled because Internet connection is slow.”

The Galaxy S3, Galaxy S4, Galaxy Note 3, and some other Samsung phones have a connection feature known as “Auto Network Switch” which may cause the "Network disabled because Internet connection is slow" error to occur. This "Auto Network Switch" setting will need to be disabled in order to connect to the card.

To do this:

  1. Open your phone's settings
  2. Press the WiFi on the phone
  3. Select Advanced and scroll down to the Auto Network Switch option
  4. Uncheck the Auto Network Switch option.
  5. Exit

This should fix the error. Other Android devices may have slightly different options. Look for 'Check for internet service' or 'Avoid poor networks' in your Wifi and advanced Wifi settings and make sure that these are also disabled.
