- Samsung recently released a software update and now I'm able to watch YouTube videos and update my apps on the Google play store. I got my phone from T-Mobile so idk if the other phone companies have released the update yet. I hope this is a permanent fix to the problems and not a temporary one like the fixes I found here. I don't have the money to buy another router and I've just been waiting for the WiFi problem to get fixed so I can use my phone at home.
It is nice to see that DarrenM a moderator and the engineers at Netgear are looking into this problem. I hope that a solution can be found.
Seeing as how there are so many Galaxy phones out there, I hope the fix comes soon.
From other message boards Samsung has had this issue with other phones and devices as well. I have never purchased tech the day it was released and against my better judgement I did it with this phone and am seriously regretting my decision. It looks like my only option is to replace the router with something else. Supposedly if you disable the IPV6 on the router will fix the issue but this option does not seem to be available. I have scoured the manual, device interface and nothing about being able to actually do it. Anyone able to tell us if we can disable the IPV6 on the C6300 router or not?
