First, disallowing the router to handle IPv6 "solving" the problem is a symptom of another problem. If the app uses IPv4, or uses the canonical name of the site (the canonical name of this site is forums.androidcentral.com, its IPv6 address is 2606:4700::6812:5a19), the fact that the router can handle the IPv6 address of the site shouldn't cause any problem. But some phones seem to have a problem if both mobile data and WiFi are enabled at the same time, so when you're using WiFi, just disable mobile data. Even on an older phone, where that's not as simple as pulling the notification bar down, it's trivial to go to Settings, find mobile data, and turn it off. And
IFTTT should be able to automate that - turn WiFi on and mobile data is turned off, turn WiFi off and mobile data is turned on. (If not, I know that
Tasker can [I've used it to turn on Mobile data when I lose my WiFi signal, and to reverse the situation when I'm home], but Tasker isn't free. [If you learn to use it, though, it's well worth the $3 it costs. My screen, when I'm reading something and don't want to be disturbed, is set to not turn off, but back to the 30 second timeout when I close any of the apps that trigger that task. When I run
My Places or
Maps, GPS is enabled. When I don't have either one as the foreground app, it's disabled. (I haven't used Waze in a long while, or that would still be on the list of apps triggering that task.) Simple "AI".])
