Android devices unable to access certain things via WiFi (Modem/Router issue)

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
Hi Guys,

Not 100% sure this is the appropriate section for this ... so if its not, Mods can you please move it.



Anyway on to the issue:

I have several android devices (2 using IceCream Sandwich, other using Gingerbread) 1 is an ASUS TF101 16GB Tablet. Second is a Samsung Galaxy S3. and the other is a HTC Desire (GB).

The issue I have is that when these devices are connected to my Modem/Router setup, they are unable to access things like Google Play, Youtube and Facebook.

Modem is an older Dlink and the Wireless Router is a Wirelss N300 Dlink.

However, the Web will work no problem (browsing etc) but going on Youtube or Facebook will not work.

I do not have the model of my Modem or my Wireless Router at the moment as I am at work... But when I first got the tablet and the HTC there was no issue what so ever. then one day it just stopped working.

I have not tried anything yet as there are 3 other people in the house that use the internet as well so I am waiting for the opportune time to wipe it all and start again fresh (fingers crossed this works)

My question is: has anyone else had a similar issue? if so what was your resolution?



Thanks guys.

Unl33t.

Could be the firewall, try disabling it first basically any security features on the router.

OK ill give that a shot when i get home...

What confuses me about that though is no updates were made to the router at any stage... and it suddenly stopped working with no warning....

But ill have a look anyway. Thanks
