Note 3 - why am not able to text when my wifi is on? It was working until this very second.

This might not be a "Note 3" issue, but I had my phone for several days, been using the wif ever since.
Now all of a sudden several minutes ago it won't let me send texts when the wifi is on when it working all this time.

What happened?! Signal sucks in my area (tmobile) so I need the wif on 24/7 in my home. For me to turn it off just to receive or send texts is a pain in the you know where.
I think this happened to my bf mom a few days ago as well.

What is going on. I didn't do anything different. I was texting all day and bam! No bueno. I just tried to send a text several times and it keep failing on me until I turned off the wifi. ;(

NOTE: I cannot send texts, but I can receive them.

Probably a T-Mo issue???? IDK

If T-Mo sucks in your area... then why use them as your carrier?

because I rarely use my phone at home and my bf wanted to switch to a no contract carrier.
Might be a TMO issue. Thanks.

Most likely phone/firmware issue. I constantly get dropped from wifi and reconnected within 30 sec. I sit less than 10 foot from my wireless router. I've been working in IT for the past 18 yrs and No, this is not a router issue.
