I've been seeing a lot of data on wifi (download not upload) and when i switch to mobile only, the traffic stops.
How can I check what's using the wifi? (it says android OS in all the apps that i've used)

Hi,
i don't know if this is the correct board but I am searching for something like a WiFi Manager.
My Problem: Usually, I am using only my home network via Wifi and if I am on the road, i am using my mobile data plan. At my university there are some rooms, where i cant receive any mobile data connection. The only possibility to connect to the internet is via WPA2 WiFi but if I enter the settings for this network it also connects to this network any time I am in range of it (so when i am traveling through the city, it allways switches on an off and I dont get a stable connection.
Entering and deleting the university wifi anytime is a bit ugly so I am searching for a possibility, how I could enter my university-WLAN-Information but enable this network only, when I need it.
Thanks in advance,
Cmoe
try market from your phone or market.android.com and search for wifi manager ... it is app I use, but there is lot more apps ...
Is it possible to use mobile data for downloading while simultaneously using wifi to browse? Wifi downloading does not seem as secure but is definitely better for browsing.
no
In my school we have a WiFi network which require you to log in through a web browser. It's the first page that pops up when accessing the internet. But because I have to login before I can use the internet Android thinks the network doesn't have an internet connection and therefore uses my mobile data which in turn means that the login page doesn't show when I try to use chrome. And I have to switch off mobile data to force the phone to use the WiFi network.
Long story short: Is there a way to disable mobile data completely when connected to a WiFi network, regardless of the WiFi's internet availability?
No, there is no way to disable mobile data expect if you disable mobile data by your own.

Or use Tasker to do the trick.
Or use macrodroid to disabke Mobile Data if connected with your prefered WLAN.
Force specific apps to use mobile data instead of wifi when connected to wifi
Strange thing started to happen few days ago: I don't have internet while being connected over mobile network but have it over wifi. This started out of the blue...
I have unlimited internet via mobile network contracted with my mobile provider so it's not like I've used all of my mobile internet or something. I'm also connected to mobile network as it shows "4G" icon beside my network strength level bar so everything should work except when I try use any internet based app like Chrome or Whatsap, they doesn't work. Chrome gives me "This site can't be reached" problem...
I have Samsung S6 with latest original stock rom (Nougat)
Any idea how can I test where is the problem with mobile internet connection?
EDIT:
It seams that I've fixed it by changing to 3G network and tested and it worked, then I've turned it back to LTE and it worked so now everything works.
Strange... never experienced before that some part of OS stops working and needs restart
