Are you using Google Chrome as your Browser, Otis?

And are your family using different browsers on thier Windows/Android/iPhone devices?

 

[Otis]

I use Chrome. Think the missus uses Firefox.

 

[Otis]

The tablet is a Fire tablet, so that uses Silk.

 

[Otis]

Missus says she just always uses the Google search tab.

 

[vow]

Ok, perhaps try another browser on Android?

Don't know about Fire Tablet if you can use another browser other than Silk?

Alternatively, go through these processes here How to Fix Android 'DNS Probe Finished No Internet' Error on Chrome?

And REBOOT after each Solution/Method!!!

 

[Otis]

Lovely. Will try that. Cheers.

You can install another browser on a Fire tablet, yes.

Does it help if everyone is on the same browser? Or is the reverse the case?

No, makes no difference if y'all on the same browser.

 

[Otis]

Done everything but for the last option.

Will see if that works

Thanks so much for the help and it spares me from nailing the dog to the headboard.

You're welcome Otis, but that's no way to talk about the wife, m8...

She's more of a she-cat.

Hows the internet problem, Otis?

 

[Otis]

Okay at the mo.

Playing around between Firefox and Chrome too to see if that makes a difference.

Cheers.

Did the problem re-appear, Otis or has it been ok?

 

[Otis]

Still the same.

Going to contact Virgin.

Have you tried manually changing wifi channel? It worked for me.

We had this after moving about 9 months ago (and given a new router) so I ended up phoning them up and threatening to leave, they sent me a new router and gave us some credit and the problem never occurred again.

You don't want to interrupt a thread that has had no posts since February.

Okay, you botty lunatic.
