Possibly by an update.

It would be unusual to be able to be connected to wifi everywhere unless it's an area that has a community mesh or something like that. As you alluded to, when it loses wifi, it would usually just switch to data via the mobile provider network.

That's probably what was happening. I don't even notice when mine switches back and forth.
