WiFi Problems :(

[SalmonHatt]

I bought my dad a Samsung Galaxy 7 tablet (wifi-only) to use during his stint at a physical rehab facility. This facility has wifi. After authenticating via their terms-of-use page, the tablet willl access the internet but not for a long period of time. I keep having to turn the wifi off and back on (often having to reauthenticate). It stays connected but there is no data traffic going back and forth, and will not load web pages or refresh widgets.

My phone is also linked to the facility's wifi, and doesn't have this problem. Once I authenticate, it stays active until I disconnect from the wifi or walk out of range.

Anyone have any possible solutions to this?

Thanks,
Sal

Try to delete the profile for the wifi in the hospital.
Then try to connect to it like new.

I've had the same problem with my Tab, I found an App called "Fix My WiFi" on Google Play Store and has been working Great!
