Hi
I have neat rom (latest) and siyah kernel (latest) installed. My facebook app does not work over WIFI (i can login and can see a circle moving, nothing happens). I have tried to re-install the app multiple times, also deleted cache and deleted dalvik etc, nothing works.
However the app works perfectly fine over 3g.
I have also tried to chnage the DNS of my router to 8.8.8.8 and also tried using open DNS, no good~ :fingers-crossed:
Can anyone suggest me what can i do. I am having the same issue with my wife's GNEX.
I have also tried to reset my modem and router does n ot help either!!

I have same problem, have you tried friendcaster?
It doesn't let me login through Web page. So friendcaster also doesn't work eventually.

I am sorry but how can i do advance restore?
UPDATE: I wiped data, format system, completely reinstalled everything and did not restore anything. Still Facebook APP does not work on WIFI. I reset my WIFI settings, reset my router still does not work. The facebook works fine using a browser on PC and the browser on my phone. I am not sure whats wrong. I think it is something to do with ports etc on WIFI.
I am stuck!
Edit: When i try to log in to the facebook app using the WIFI i also get, sign in failed , try single sign in method. I know i can use another facebook app but i am wondering whats wrong with the default FB app!

This is exactly my problem and tried all the things you have too, totally at a loss!
I changed the router MTU from 1492 to 1100, the FB worked for 5 minutes and then again it is stuck!
Has anyone able to get a solution so that my apps (facebook) starts working overWIFI?
I've got here some possiblity's, these possibilty's are about the network aspect of your wireless.
Check your router's firewall (Should be turned off)
Check QoS setting on your router (turn it off)
DNS flush your router
Disable WMM in wireless settings of your router
Disble GI in wireless settings of your router
Restart your router
If you need some support contact me on Skype

Hi
Thanks for the support. I tried first 3 steps, didn't work. I am unable to find Gi and wmm settings on my router. Also, will disabling qos and firewall harm my network speed/security in any way?

Update
Of late i Have noticed that a couple of more apps are not working over WIFI. Now I am sure there is something wrong with my router settings. I am puzzled as i do not know what changed all of a sudden.
Sent from a better Galaxy designed for humans!
I have something a little similar - my Play Store updates and app downloads rarely work under wifi but work just fine on phone connection. I'm almost sure it is MTU settings - I changed ISP recently to Optus and noticed a couple of issues. I diagnosed MTU's being incorrect, adjusted the modem to max, then checked and adjusted each PC and the access flies nicely now.
However, although I can adjust the MTU on my S3 using terminal emulator I cannot get the setting to stick - restart the phone OR even don';t use it for a while and the MTU reverts to 1500 - it needs to be 1492. When it is on 1492 all my updates etc work but next time I try to use the phone they hang because MTU is back to 1500 on my wlan0 link.
Anyone have advice on how to reset the MTU and make it stay that way?
NOTE: To find the optimum MTU for your network connection, do this on an attached PC (ethernet or wireless)
Start a command prompt with elevation (right click and choose Run As Administrator)
netsh interface ipv4 show subinterface
(This shows current MTU settings - note you need to check your modem for settings there)
ping www.google.com –f –l 1500 (calc for mtu is last successful ping +28)
Step down the figure by 20 for each time until you get a successful ping response, then work your way back up until you know the value for the highest successful ping. Add 28 to that figure. then run one or more of the commands below depending on which connections you use. e.g. my highest was 1464, so +28 = 1492
netsh interface ipv4 set subinterface "Wireless Network Connection" mtu=1492 store=persistent
netsh interface ipv4 set subinterface "Local Area Connection" mtu=1492 store=persistent
netsh interface ipv4 set subinterface "Bluetooth Network Connection" mtu=1492 store=persistent
Note I am not sure if you can simply look at your modem MTU and do the opposite calculation - e.g. my modem is on 1500 so I might have been able to work out my highest MTU from that.

WifiKill
Do you think that someone is using your wifi? Do you want to take control (hijack) others wifi? Well this app does that using our beloved SG3!!
Well, with this app you can disable internet connection for a device on the same network. So if someone (anyone) is abusing the internet wasting precious bandwidth for a Justin Bieber videoclips you could just kill their connection and stay happy with a full bandwidth just for yourself.
Cool Things you can do with this -
1) If your neighbours are using your wifi network now you can stop them from doing so.
2) You are sitting in CCD or any other place which has open wifi, well you can take control and stop other users from using wifi.
This app is absoultly great and does what it says!!!!
ONE MORE THING - THIS APP REQUIRES ROOT!!!!!
This app is so powerful that it can even close the computers which are connected with Ethernet cables also!
#Dont Spread this thing or other people may use it on you!!! #
To Download this and for more Info Goto the main thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1282900
All thanks to the Developers of the app and not me. I just found it over the internet. I have not in any way created this app!!

What does that one do? Because I read you could even shut a computer down...
I guess the first one just blocks the wifi.
Ah, found it on his forum:
There are 4 options to kill the connections coming through the phone:
1) Don't use iptables
- this will only put 0 in the /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward, which will drop each packet from the client point of view the browser will try to load the page indefinitely like having a 1kbps internet connection each connection will just time out.
this is the best way if your device don't have iptables!
2) Use iptables + DROP policy
- this has similar effect to the previous but the packets are dropped in the iptables
3) Use iptables + REJECT target
- this will reject packets sending either RST packets for each tcp connection or icmp-port-unreach for udp connections, from client POV this will kill all connections pages will just look like they are temporarily down, browser won't load long it will instantly go off, REJECT target support is needed in order for this to work
4) Use iptables + redirect to 127.0.0.1:1
- this should have similar effect to the 3rd option but if your device don't have reject target, all tcp connections are redirected to your device and port 1 which is mostly unused and this also will send RST for each connection
But still, wich option shuts down a computer? Or does it just close the connection?
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You have to be connected to a wifi network though.
How can you tell if someone is running this on our wireless network? Is there any way to find out what ip is doing this? Just curious, I want to be ready because i know someone will try it.

Hey guys,
I have been reading around the wlan_rx_wakelock since days now since I cannot get rid of this battery drain and just wanted to collect all the information out there and the solutions that worked for some people.
If you put your phone into airplane mode or just simply turn off WiFi you will see in better battery stats that the wlan_rx_wake wakelock will vanish and a deleted_wakelocks will turn up with a similar up time and battery drain percentage.
Some people wake up with a drained phone in the morning, some have a horrendous battery drain when in work on the work/school/university WiFi. Some people have found solutions, but for most it could be tracked back to a certain WiFi network. The wakelock doesn't appear when signed in on the home WiFi, but is present when at work. This shows it is not a problem of the phone itself, but the WIFI AP is the cause.
This is the basic information from the BBS thread here:
wlan_rx
Author(s): sven, credits to Entropy512 @xda-dev
Ranking: n/a
Speaking Name: wlan_rx
Rationale: Wifi chip received a packet from somewhere - On a Galaxy S II, lots of these combined with the fact that the device takes 650 msec to resume from suspend and 150 to go back to sleep means that occasional wifi packets coming in will skyrocket Android OS usage. As an extreme example, run the following from a Linux box when wifi sleep policy is "never" and watch your deep sleep percentages plummet, your battery drain, and Android OS skyrocket: ping -i 5 <wifi IP address of phone>
Know actions: Use a sniffer to determine the cause of the traffic.

To investigate what traffic is causing the constant wifi usage you can use Shark or Network Log to get a better resolution of the actual network traffic (source):
1. Shark for Android - Capture the packets with this. Use wireshark on your PC/MAC to read the captures.
2. Network Log (also in play store) : Will help identify which applications are using your network, on a per packet basis. Note, this is a higher level capture than Shark for Android. (As in, shark will capture every packet that hits the interface. Network log will not.)
Solutions:
use a static IP instead of DHCP (you may have to set a static IP every time you sign up in that particular network)
disable IPv6 protocol on your phone (Dorimanx kernels have an option for this in ST tweaks or you can use "Android Firewall" for this
update your router firmware
buy a gaming adapter for your Wifi network that gets the DHCP IP adress, but gives your phone a static IP (source)
optimise router settings: click
Windows network is causing the problem - solution here: click
Change wireless network encryption method, change wifi channel, instead of using auto baseband use only 2.4 or 5GHz baseband (Wi - Fi - advanced - Wi - Fi frequency band)
turn off uPNP in router/AP
t urn off netbios in windows network
Thoravukk FAQ tells you: Q. My device not entering deep sleep if i use Wifi?
A: That's not a Kernel issue! It's a Router and (Windows 7) Network problem. Disable IPv6, IP Helper service, shell hardware detection service and the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service. Source: here
try different kernels: see below
Apps that have been demonstrated to cause the wakelock:
Dropbox (October 2012)
Several people have been able to get rid of this problem by using a different kernel:
If your wlan_rx wakelock is caused by the IPv6 problem then switching to Dorimanx 7.4x kernel will get rid of this problem as this kernel disables IPv6 for you.
People with Galaxy Nexus phones got rid of the problem by using the CMplusTuna kernel, which is not available for SGS2 unfortunately.
Another user got rid of the problem using "lean kernel" available for GNex and SGSIII.
i9300 users might get rid of it by using the Perseus Kernel "It's caused by the OS enabling some unwanted network filters, I disabled this now in Perseus 26.1 and it should also remove all drain." Source: here
Following up on network filtering and multicast I found this code project which seems to be merged into CM10.1:
bcmdhd: Change packet filter settings to block multicast
A common complaint of users is that battery life on wifi
is very poor, with frequent wlan_rx_wake wakelocks.
It turns out Samsung "opened up" the packet filter
settings from Gingerbread to ICS.
This makes them match the tuna configuration, minus
the filter to allow mDNS through (which lets a bunch
of other stuff through too.)
The original patch reverted to Gingerbread settings,
but it seems like the filter definitions changed
from GB to ICS.

Several users reported that they only have this problem in their work/school/university network. Many users mentioned a network called "eduroam" which is a worldwide network in universities besides the local network (which normally uses the same equipment). So it seems the WiFi equipment/settings cause our phones to be constantly awake. And many report they don't have good 3G reception in these kind of buildings, so they can't just go without WiFi sadly. I can confirm this as I only have the battery drain here in my university.
Also a very interesting in the common Networking forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1738171
Kernel's I have tried without any luck:
Siyah 5.0.1
Dorimanx:7.44
Fluxi kernel: http://fluxi.xda-hosting.de/download.php?fname=./data/ota/files/fluxi-kernel-sgs2-XX.03-beta1.zip
N.E.A.K kernel: 2.1.2x http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1576355
Shun Andromeda: 2-2-7
Dream Kernel: 2.7.5
Abyss Kernel: 2.0 F4
Maybe something is hidden in those Nexus kernels that would also work for the SGSII. Unfortunately I haven't got a clue about coding, so I am hoping that if we help together we find a solution.
Thanks for any input.

GB was wifi-awesome, ICS & JB came with that devious wlan wakelock.
Sent from the little guy
Yeah. JB seems to have it, too. Installed CM10.1 to get rid of it, but same problem unfortunately.
I have the same problem on both my tablet (TF300) and Samsung Galaxy S2.
When WiFi was enabled on my tablet and policy set to "Keep WiFi on during sleep = always) the battery went from 100% to 40 in 8 hours.
The next day I disabled WiFi completely and let the tablet be for 8 hours again, when I got home I still had 99%
Today I'm trying with WiFi enabled but WiFi-policy set to Never instead.
The reason why I've always used always as policy is that I read somewhere (could be a year maybe) that the battery would last longer with that setting. But that doesn't seem to apply to jellybean as it did with ICS.
Sorry for rambling.
I've tried disabling IPv6 and updated my router firmware as well, I'll get back with results later.
Cheers!
Yeah, it seems to respond better to static IP config than dynamic IP.
F&%@ing wifi eats my battery alive.

So i've had the same problem where my galaxy s3's battery has just gone to 0 in ~10 hours and i finally found the fix for it, this is what's causing it for me and might be what's causing it for you to, anyhow i'm gonna go step by step with what i did to find the culprit.
I downloaded an app called Network Log and let it log some of my traffic, i quickly found that packets where beeing sent by 192.168.1.74 wich is not any android device but my main computer and there i found the source of the problem, i was then searching around and stumbled across this post, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25876666&postcount=3
I found this line in the post,
Q: Wakelocks "wlan_rx_wake" wake up my device constantly what I can do about it?
A: The problem is neither Android nor the kernel, but the router and the (Windows7) network. In the network properties, uncheck "IPv6", disable the service "IP Helper", "Shell Hardware Detection" and "Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service", which provide ongoing Traffic. Then they scored again 98% of deep sleep.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and i decided to look in to it, i started the "run" command in windows and wrote "services.msc" wich then boots up you services that's started by windows, after that it's pretty simple.
Find the line called Ip Helper and stop it after that right click it and chose properties and decided the start method as inactive, after that look up the "Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service" and do the exact same thing there, this actually fixed it, my computer for some reason got stuck on sending useless packets over the network and was sending it to my galaxy s3 along with my mothers galaxy note 10.1 (no other android devices where seeing this thou for some reason) and after setting those 2 to disable i now have had my phone at 99% battery for over an hour with wifi active.
I do hope this helps and i'm gonna post this in the other wifi_rx_wake posts i can find.

Hey,
Thanks for your input. I had read that before, but unfortunately this problem only occurs for me (and many others) in work/university. So I wonder if there is a way just to block the requests on our phones rather than turning off these services on the computers.

It's an IP conflict, dynamic IP will drain your battery faster than Static.
Sent from the little guy
That's where i belive you're wrong, i have static ips on all my machines in my home so an ip conflict i highly doubt. As i said in my previous post, it shows that it's a specific ip that's sending packets to my phone constantly.
@damnation333 i can't really answer that i'm afraid, however you should be able to look up the ip and ask your ip department of the school/university if they could have a talk with the owner of the ip Network log does show what ip it is that's sending the packets .

have the same issue on optimus 4x hd. had it when we had 10a and 10b (ICS) firmwares, but after lg pushed 10f firmware (one of theirs changelog beeing: "improved wifi during sleep", the problem was gone.
So, before 10f firmware, when you ping your phone, the response was imediatelly, after 10f the ping response came only after a while like it should be during sleep.
(testing on iphone is the same result, it only asnswers ping request after a while, when it its sleeping)
So, after changing from 10f (ICS) to cyanogenmod (10.1.2) , the problem came back, because CM didnt probably implement this particuly fix. so in my opinion its a rom or kernell bug (i guess kernel) and nothig regarding to network, because i didnt change anything in my network & computers, only changed the ROM.
Double wifi speed of OP2
According to XDA Senior Member dreinulldrei, the WiFi configuration file used in the OnePlus 3 and 3T is the default one provided by Qualcomm. That’s not really an issue in and of itself, but the user discovered that the default configuration disabled channel bonding in the 2.4GHz frequency. 5GHz frequency networks have channel bonding enabled (and if you have access to this frequency, then it is advised you connect to it), but if your router only support the 2.4GHz frequency then this trick may be useful for you.
Enabling channel bonding should theoretically double your wireless throughput (as long as your router supports channel bonding), as the channel width increases from 20MHz to 40MHz. This trick is quite easy to implement, as all one needs to do is modify one line in WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini (located in /system/etc/wifi).

Original article - https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-double-the-wifi-speed-on-your-oneplus-3-3t/
I didn't get the maximum speed of my connection through my OnePlus 2 either. So I checked WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini (located in /system/etc/wifi)
to see if by any chance it's disabled on OP2 as well & YES!
Channel bonding in 2.4GHz frequency's disabled by default on OnePlus 2 as well.
Use following method to enable channel bonding in 2.4GHz frequency & speed up your connection,
Warning!
I won't be held responsible for any damaged/bricked devices. Use this guide at your own risk
In essence, there is a greater possibility for wireless interference if you enable a channel width of 40MHz. The exact reason why it increases interference is more complicated than is necessary to cover in this article, but in general “40MHz wide channels over 2.4GHz is not a good idea in urban areas where there is a high density of WiFi access points” to quote XDA Recognized Developer SultanXDA.
However, if you are located in a more rural or suburban area where there are few wireless networks to interfere with your own, this fix provides a free way to double your phone’s network speed. Try it out and let us know if it works for you!

Method
-> Open WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini (located in /system/etc/wifi) using a text editor
-> Find line "gChannelBondingMode24GHz=0"
-> Change "gChannelBondingMode24GHz=0" to "gChannelBondingMode24GHz=1"
-> Save & Reboot. Done!

Yes. Otherwise you can't edit the WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini file.

If your internet connection isn't as quick as his one, you won't see any difference. If you have a normal connection say below 20mbps you won't see a difference.

Maybe your router has channel bonding disabled. Plus make sure it's a 2.4GHz. For 5.0GHz it's already enabled in WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini

Yes, u right. My connection speed is 15mbps..
Seen on the XDA news portal for the OP3, I immediately did it for my OP2 and it works. Just a shame that I use 5GHz everywhere, so it doesn't add a use for me
Saw this for OP3 too. Did it on my OP2. Worked: faster Wifi. 150 mbps.
Then noticed Portable WiFi Hot-Spot stopped being detected by other devices (laptop, other phones).
Reverted changes same way: edit file, set to 0. Issue remained.
Finally solved by restoring a recent backup of System partition via TWRP.
Also, note that your router or access point must be 802.11n compatible, and enabled with correct settings. With older 802.11g models you are stuck at 54 Mbit/s anyway.
Little guide on that topic: https://www.lifewire.com/get-300-mbps-speed-on-802-11n-network-818267 (OP2 will get only 150MBps because it has one antenna)

Indeed you did.
Unfortunately I'm not savvy enough to understand how that warning is related to the HotSpot from my OP2 not being detected by even my car's Android stereo (which detected it before the change) even in my building's underground parking where there was no other WiFi network available... in theory, there would be no interference there if no other WiFi network is detected... right?
...or you meant the text in red? If so, I'm not putting blame on anyone! I was just commenting on my experience as I did see no mention of such problems so that others could would check this if they do need the hot-spot as I do.
Cheers!

I admire your contribution by sharing your issues after changing channel bonding. It's the reason forums like xda exists. What I meant was I added a 'Warning' section because there will be issues to be expected(for some). In that section I quoted discovered issues mentioned in the article.
As for your problem,
You said the problem existed even after reverting the change ? Right ? Maybe it's not the one caused the problem. Maybe something else did.

Yup. Undid the change in same way I applied it: set system to r/w, edit file, save, set system to r/o, reboot. I even tried wipe cache/Dalvik just in case too. No fix.
I can't say for sure it was this as I have no hard proof, but I'm pretty positive. Reason: In between the change and reverting it, I did nothing else to system (this is in fact first time I touch it) nor did I install any new apps. I'm very careful on changes and never apply more than one at a time or too frequently. This way I can isolate issues. And also that got solved by restoring system partition alone.
Anyway!! Just thought of reporting it for people to be aware and check this if they apply the change. If in fact the change has no impact over the hot-spot, then I did do something else and can't remember!
Thanks & Cheers!

Amazing! I'll try implementation of this into my ROM and see how it goes in general
This solved the old firmware question for me (3.5.6=random reboots, 3.1=WiFi drops). Now I can just use the 3.1 firmware without any downsides.

I got a message on my Pocophone to update my system. I did so and after that I am no longer able to access Internet. I have tried removing the network and re setting it up; I have rebooted the phone multiple times; I have restarted the router etc. Nothing has worked.
I have a connection but no Internet. I have made a backup of the phone and have transfered the files to my PC. I am about to do a reset op the phone back to factory defaults, but before I do that, perhapse soneone can suggest another method?
The phone now shows Android version 9 PKQ1 180729 001
MIUI version MIUI Global 10.11 stable 10.1.3.0(PEJMIFI)
Please help!
Just change the Sim order at the tray
I just switched Sim position at the tray and is working now.

Thank you for your reply. I will have to reset my phone I suppose, but that will mean a lot of work getting my apps back like I want them.
I was hoping for a simpler method. On a PC you can uninstall the adapter and Windows will take care of installing a new version. I tried this on my phone but had no success.
Had the same issue upgrading to 10.1.3.0, I basically tried two things:
1) Enable both SIM and test
2) Enable "Dual 4G - Allow 4G connectivity for both SIM slots.
I had the same problem with the new update..
I tried this and it worked..
What worked is turning on the 2nd simcard..
You might turned off your second simcard
That is what made the internet offline

I have turned on Dual 4G. I rebooted the Pocophone and there is no effect. Still no Internet.
I cannot find where to turn on the second SIM card. My Pocophone F1 only shows one SIM card. I have moved the SIM from slot2 to slot 1 but can only see one SIM card in whichever slot my SIM is placed in.
Try to borrow some simcard or whatever put it on 2nd simcard slot.. Turn on both simcard.. It worked on me

Unfortunately I only have a "normal" (latge) SIM card available, not a "nano" (small) one. I don`t think than a normal SIM fits in the slot. If I detach the nano from the normal I will not be able to use the normal one again.
PS Do you know what the SIM cards have to to do with WiFi? I was able to use WiFi previously without any SIM cards in the phone. It does not seem logical that the SIM cards have influence on WiFi.
Thanks again for your suggestions

Just for testing try to set dns manually.. Change the ip settings to manual instead of dhcp and set the ip and dns manually.. You can try 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 for dns.
To set static ip press the little icon beside your WiFi network name then change the ip settings from dhcp to static.

Before the system update I could access the settings for DHCP & DNS as welle as IP address. Now I cannot get to any of them.
When I go to settings/WiFi/ Long press on the connection, I get the Share WiFi network QR code comming up.
Advanced settings only shows my MAC & IP address. On the Manage saved networks display I can only delete the network, nothing else.
Don't press on the network name.. Press this little icon beside it to access the ip settings

Thanks for the images.
No way with the very tip of my finger, had to use a rubber tipped pointer to access the network details. (Pity I can't change the sensitivity of the touch screen!)
Changed from my original Static IP & DNS (8.8.8.8 // 8.8.4.4) to DHCP and did a reboot ==>> No difference.
(Auto connct is on, but on the WiFi display it says "Won't automatically connect")
I think there is someting seriously wrong here! Perhaps I should just cut my losses and reset to factory settings.

SOLVED!!!!
One last try before a reset ==>> All I did was change the static IP value ! (Note, changing the static IP to DHCP did not work). It was 192.168.0.100 & I changed it to 192.168.0.109.
192.168.0.100 is a reserved IP address in my router, 192.168.0.109 is not (yet)
So was it a corruption op the original IP address??? Or because it was a reserved IP address??? (I did reset the router before just to make sure). I am about to reserve 109 in the router and see what happens.
Thanks again for your suggestions above.
i have connection...but i dont get internet....and i am not able do my works...i bougjt this phone so recently...and i am trappped now...pkease help me out...i took this phone to mi service center.. they factory reseted and made some software reset and that helped me two days to get good internet but after two days i got this problem again....no i use internet by putting my jio sim in a router and because of taht i cant make normal calls.Please help me out...i dont know what to do ..
Just enable roaming services and insert sim correctly. Wifi not a problem I think. If wifi shows no internet means try forgot network option to re-enter the password. None of this work. Go to Sim network office get new one at free of cost.
I have been having some issues with apps on my device. A lot of my streaming apps like Netflix hulu hbomax won't load at all and says it no connection to interent while connected on wifi. However when I'm on data everything loads fine. Its only happening with specific apps other apps work as usual. I've tried resetting the network (wife's s21 works fine with all apps including ones mentioned and tv apps work fine) forgetting all network settings Uninstalling and reinstalling. Every just up to about factory resetting. Any ideas?

Private DNS would affect both WiFi and Mobile Data. Since everything works fine on mobile data, you can rule out a problem with this setting.

VPN on your PC has nothing to do with your phone.
Go to your WiFi properties and see what the network details say:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It should be 'Detect Automatically' or 'Treat as unmetered'.
Have you tried 'Reset Network Settings'? This is different from forgetting individual networks.

As far as I know, the DNS server on your device overrides the settings on the router.
If your WiFi was blocking the DNS server on your phone as you say, then how come other apps are working normally?
Are the settings on your phone different from the one on your wife's phone?
