Samsung J7 bootloop after connecting to WLAN

Title bootloops after connecting to WLAN

Summary

(Summarize the bug encountered, briefly and precisely) Samsung J7 2015 J700M bootloops as soon as connected to WLAN As a side note, although I didn't have boot loops, I also used to have problems remaining connected to WLAN on other custom 7.1 ROMs, but NOT on 6.0 or 7.0. what might have changed between 7.0 and 7.1? Possibly help in investigating.

Steps to reproduce

(How one can reproduce the issue - this is very important) simply get to the connection screen in setup. As soon as the device connects to the WLAN it goes into boot loop. If you run setup without connecting, it bootloops at whatever point you do connect

What is the current behavior?

(What actually happens) bootloop when connects to WLAN

What is the expected correct behavior?

(What you should see instead) No bootloop. Just connection.

Relevant logs and/or screenshots
