Hi, please Restart your Z Fold 3. Sometimes, a simple reboot can resolve the issue. Then, check if the wifi is working.

Please check Your Router: Sometimes, the problem might not be with the phone but with the router. Try restarting your router and see if your phone can detect the WiFi network.

Also, we recommend you to update your device to the latest software version.

Thank you.

Did you run the self diagnostic app to check on the wifi? It could be help to determine wifi HW.

Does the self diagnostic app report any issue about wifi?

The self diagnostic app will not fix your wifi issue but will report the issue of what being detected. Does the app report any issue related to wifi?

You're right but the problem is that this app can't check because the wifi won't turn on for this reason the app asks me to turn on the wifi in order to check if everything is correct. I would have liked an app that could do the diagnosis without having to activate it, it's a shame because there's nothing I can do...

Ok. I think it could be the build-in chip broken due to you having reset the wifi network and power phone off/on already. Normally, any temporary issue of HW and SW can be fixed by uninstalling/reinstalling the wifi driver/app and WiFi's FW during wifi network reset or power off/on.
