    I've got a OnePlus 6T from TMo that I just love. But suddenly Chrome stopped loading web pages when I'm on Wifi. They load fine with wifi off. Firefox loads pages either way. I've deleted cache, reinstalled, etc. No change.

    Any suggestions or anyone else seen this?

    Does this happen on any wi-fi network, or only a certain one?

    If Chrome's Data Saver is turned on, see what happens if you turn it off.

    Data saver was off. Tried toggling it, but no change. Very odd.

    Was Chrome preinstalled? If so, what happens if you uninstall all updates?

    Done. No change.

    Very odd that it's only on Wifi, only Chrome. I flip off wifi, and pages load with no problems. With Wifi on, nothing loads in Chrome, but Firefox works just fine.

    Done. Same result.

    Pages don't load in Chrome using Wifi. Turn off wifi, pages load perfectly. Firefox loads pages no problem. Very odd.

    Have you considered uninstalling/reinstalling Chrome?

    Finally found the problem! For some reason under Settings > Apps & Notifications > Data Usage Control, Chrome was set to Data Only. No idea how or why, but set it to "Allow" and all is well.

    Thanks for your help, guys!
