I recently set up an old router as an ethernet switch (a BT Hub 5), and ever since have been having trouble connecting an android tablet to the internet.
I keep getting DNS resolution errors or "Your connection is not secure" errors with Chrome and Firefox, and other apps just refuse to connect at all.
All my other devices have no problems connecting, both wired and wireless. If I turn off the BT Hub then the tablet connects properly straight away, so the problem is obviously some sort of conflict created between the two, but I am at a loss as to what, exactly the problem is, and how to fix it (short of ditching the Hub).
I have already turned off DCHP on the Hub, and have turned it off on the tablet, too. The static IP address is not shared by any other device. I have tried changing the DNS servers to the Google ones. Nothing works. Sometimes it does connect briefly, but it always reverts to DNS errors before long. So, any insight into how I can resolve this?
