1. Use a high DHCP address e.g. 192.168.1.222, this is only intended as a test at the moment to identify the issue, but the address you used will definately not work.
2. use the suggested DNS
3. No proxy is needed.

Hello!
I have exacly the same problem with my EX6200. It works fine with my laptop (Win 8.1), but not with my Galaxy Note 4, nor with Tab 10.1 2014 Ed. All devices communicate without problem directly with the router (Thomson TR789vn). Is there a solution for this problem??
