The network bug is widespread across Google\u2019s recent hardware portfolio. A growing thread on the r\/GooglePixel subreddit points to users of the newer Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL, as well as the Pixel 8 Pro, Pixel 8a, and even the older Pixel 6a, suddenly being left stranded without 5G signals.<\/p>\n<p>Some unlucky users even discovered that their eSIM had completely disappeared or lost the ability to automatically connect to saved home Wi-Fi networks right after the reboot.<\/p>\n<p>So what really went wrong behind the scenes? There\u2019s no official technical breakdown from Google, but the Android 17 update seems to have scrambled cellular radio profiles and network band configurations for some carriers.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, you don\u2019t have to endure sluggish data speeds while waiting for Google\u2019s engineers to push an over-the-air patch. The official Pixel Community support account suggests a more traditional network reset. Just head to <strong>Settings > System > Reset options > Reset Mobile Network Settings<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Google is definitely watching the messy rollout and will most likely include a permanent fix for the modem in the next monthly security patch. Until then, take five minutes to run the Repair Mode trick and restore your device running at flagship speeds again.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for being part of our community.
