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

I am on bionix 1.3.1 and have noticed that whenever I turn my wifi on it seems to not allow me data access. My web browser will not connect to a page, market won't load, and any downloads that were in progress will fail. it's as if turning on the wifi is overriding my data connection and blocking it. It says that it's connected in the menu though. Any advice?
Thanks
Edit: I just noticed when looking at my phone stats, that when I turn on my wifi my mobile network state says disconnected, and it connects again when wifi is turned off.
Also, I have an airport extreme and a mac, perhaps that is my problem. I've scoured the internet and found a bunch of info about this problem, but haven't found anything that works yet.

Im sure someone will correct me if Im wrong but if you switch from wifi to 3g while downloading the download usually will fail because you were using only wifi to download the content and when that turned off it doesn't just switch to using 3g you have to manually retry the download using 3g .... when wifi and 3g are on wifi doesn't speed up the 3g instead it does the internet related work and the 3g does the text and phone call related work
that makes sense, thanks. as for the connection problem, it is definitely mac related. my wifi seems to work on other networks. I just need to figure out how to make it work with the airport. It's just weird to me that it says it's connected and shows signal bars, but won't access the internet.

so is the new problem that the airport extreme won't give wifi to your phone or that its not working at all
According to my phone I am connected via wifi to my network from the airport, however, the phone cannot access any internet functions when connected. When I disable wifi, it works fine with 3g or edge. It seems to be something with the settings on my airport, not the phone itself.

That's surprising maybe this means apple products are biased
Hi I recently went to bangladesh for a holiday. I noticed that the apps can't connect to the internet. Apart from the internet apps e.g. opera, dolphin web browser these can connect to the internet. I had no issue with this when I was in the uk. I was wondering if it could be because since there is no 3g network in bangladesh my phone is using 2g network connection - edge connection. Could it be because of that? Also when I was in the UK my phone use to have HSDPA connection and all the apps work when it is connected via wifi.
Hmm strange issue.. Are you using stock SE rom? Are you sure that there is no 3g connection or maybe you disabled it?
I think its your.carrier, theres no way to prove it but who knows

If your phone is on roam, it won't connect unless you go into data settings and allow it to.
I have this problem to, and i have 3g connection but apps cant connect to the internet.
Enable internet while roaming. If problem persists then the carrier dosent support it.
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 ...
updated my HTC radar to mango few months ago. Wasn't sure internet sharing was working before. But now when I click on the internet sharing option I am getting a error message "CONNECTION NOT SHARED" there is no mobile data connection to share right now. Please check the mobile settings and signal and try again. My mobile is connects well to both 2g and 3g networks. Help required to fix.
I used mobile internet on stock 4.1.2 and everything worked fine. Now I flashed CM11, and when i turn on mobile internet, it shows H+, but I can't reach any page, it's always timed out. But I can tether internet via WiFi or USB and it's working fine. What should I do for mobile internet working properly on phone?

You need to find and enter your apn settings so your phone knows where to go.
