lose Internet when wifi is connected

FunkusMunkus — Sat, 29 Nov 2014 01:41:20 GMT

Hi
I have a Z2 and recently when at home I am unable to get anything on the Internet while I am connected to my router. If I turn wifi off from the quick settings it is fine.
As far as I am aware I haven't changed anything and it used to be fine. I have no idea if it's a phone issue or a router issue. I think it could be phone cause the PS4, laptop and my partners phone are still fine.

Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Boot on safe mode and check again

Ok, tried that and it is still the same. With wifi on and connected to my router i get a dns error.
I tried redoing the connection to no avail.

I have the same problem randomly. It will work for X amount of minutes, then the wifi will just hang. Phone shows its connected, but no Internet access.

I've tried every single suggestion and still can't fix this. I know it's not a defective device because my home network is the only one that gives me this issue. I know it's not a router issue because every other device connects fine. It's a Sony bug that needs to be fixed. My gs3, OnePlus one, Galaxy nexus, Asus transformer prime, and 5 laptops don't ever have this issue. It truly is pathetic for a flagship phone to have this issue.
