R7800 DNS/IMAP/POP/TLS stops working (Android only)
DNS/IMAP/POP/TLS/Xfinity Connect/Stream/MyAccount stops working Android phones if I leave my home wifi and come back.... Everything else works on the phones - internet, google play, youtube, sirius radio, gmail native app, yahoo email native app, etc. Laptops on same home wifi are not affected.
If I reboot the phone or the router, it will work.
If I connect to 4G, it will work.
If I connect to the local xfinity free wifi, it will work.
Reconnect to my router, FAIL.
Some things that I have tried that do NOT help:
-tried several different IMAP/POP email apps and accounts/ports.
-tried switching the phone from my 2.4GHz wifi to my 5GHz wifi.
-manually assign DNS Servers on the phone.
-turn wifi off / on in the phone.
-turn airplane mode on/off in the phone.
-uninstall / re-install the apps on the phone.
-adding wifi to battery exclude.
-turn on "mobile data always on to allow for faster switching".
-try my GF's phone (different brand/model).
-upgraded router firmware from v68 to v80.
