Hi all

I have Orcon Genius ADSL at my place and for a very long time (since before Global mode was switched off) I haven't been able to get reliable connectivity to Netflix (app) or Gmail (via mail or outlook app) on any Android devices over my wifi connection.

 With Netflix, the app doesn't get past the launch screen - eventually I get a connection timeout error. With gmail, I get a connection timeout notification whenever I try to sync.

I still get emails occasionally, but syncing on demand doesn't work.

Laptop wifi to the web versions works no problem. Same apps work on friends or work wifi no problem. No problems with other apps using google account - just mail.

The problem goes away if I turn off wifi and access via mobile internet. I can stream netflix to chromecast only by switching to 3/4G, finding the content I want to stream, switching to wifi, connecting to the chromecast and then playing the content.

I thought it might be a DNS issue but changing my routers DNS to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.8.4 doesn't help.

It's been driving me insane, and I'm hoping someone might have come across this before.

Thanks

*update pinging www.netflix.com from my laptop over wifi gets a time out error. But I can still access the site on my browser.
