How can I get my wifi working?

[AC Question]

Wifi not working only mobile data.

Hey everyone
Yesterday my Samsung GALAXY S5 and tablet started playing up. Both are saying they are connected to my wifi but I can't open Facebook, download new apps, open Instagram, emails etc.
I've disconnected and reconnect wifi numerous times, shut down phone, re-entered Internet passwords but nothing works.
I can't afford to run up my monile data bill and need wifi to work.
My partners iPhone still works with wifi but my Samsung isn't.
Please help, thanks in advance.

Remove the battery and leave out for 10secs... Worked for me
