Hello I have the same problem on my phone I am not so techy and I find the thread very foreign. Please help me.. in simple english

Bag of leaves gave the clearest explanation....when setting up the connection (entering the password), tap the checkbox for "Show advanced options", under "IP settings" tap the pull-down (default is "DHCP") and select "Static", then the options will appear. The options are: IP address, Gateway, Network prefix length, DNS 1, and DNS 2. DNS 1 default is 8.8.8.8 and DNS 2 default is 8.8.4.4.

Hi, I had the same problem. Bought S7, Wifi works but cant use play store and Youtube App at work. but worked fine at home.
I called my serivce provider (rogers) and they fixed it by disabling Voice over LTE . apparently this new technology is interrupting signals.worked for me.

I just bought a samsung s7 and had the same issue of certain apps being very slow on wifi with huge delay in loading images. I can confirm that for me disabling voice over lte fixes the issue. I have reproduced the problem and toggled the volte setting dozens of times and each time I can reproduce and fix the problem by disabling.

Go to settings, then Apps, YouTube and then there is a switch to disable WiFi.
Sometimes this automatically turns on when it updates.

Its stupid but you get an easy fix.

I have been searching for months how to fix my youtube app because it did not work over wifi.
I have a oneplus 3 with android 7.1.1. In the settings->apps->youtube there is a menu called " Data Usage " inside this menu there is a button " Disabled wifi " which turns off the wifi connection for that app.

So frustrating... At least the app or android could pop up a notification about this....
