My tablet connects to the Internet, but will no longer sync or download. I have no idea what happened. Any advice?

Welcome to Android Central! You're connected to the router, but are you sure the router is connected properly to the web? Review this guide: http://forums.androidcentral.com/amb...-problems.html

Does the tablet access anything on the web successfully? Is it only downloads that don't work? By downloads, do you mean downloading files from webpages, or installing apps from Google Play Store, or something else?

Thanks so much for responding. I was not able to access most things on the Internet with my tablet, although my phone and computer are using it with no problem. In order to answer your questions specifically, I checked additional apps.During this process, one app gave me the message to check the date and time. I discovered my date and time had inexplicably reverted back to the year 2000. Since resetting it to today's date, the tablet is once again downloading and syncing. Problem solved! Thank you again.

Glad to hear you figured it out! I've never quite understood why some tablets (often Samsung) don't have an Automatic Network Date & Time function.

Right - or why they would randomly revert to an earlier date for no apparent reason.
