Samsung Galaxy Tab A Won't Connect To Internet-How To Fix

In this video, I tell you about a Samsung Galaxy Tab A that won't connect to the internet. I specifically tell you how to fix it with a few simple steps. Most of the time this is an easy fix, and if you follow the steps throughout the video you should be able to get your tablet connected to the internet or wifi again. However, from time to time, it can be a bigger problem that requires a more complex solution. With that being said, that is why I recommend that you try these steps first, because they will hopefully help you get it fixed before you have to take advanced measures.

I found out why, you have to go to settings then go to general settings. Once you are in general settings go to date and time then turn on Automatic date and time

[@narrenhaus]

WHAAAAAAAAT?!!!!!!! WHY IN HELL DID THAT WORK?!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously, thanks, man. :)

[@yiincc]

You saved me thank you

[@hunterplischke5089]

Yep, it worked.

[@yiincc]

@belly tripper it worked for me so... idk

[@narrenhaus]

@belly tripper Like, I'm sure he's a horrible person, just an absolute monster, but this worked immediately for me, so I don't know what to tell you. :)

[@sharonzaring8811]

Thank you so much. After turning my wifi off and on several times it finally worked. I had only tried once prior to your video.

[@shonellabenn3654]

Yes it's the date and time that was giving the problem. Thank you.

[@paulclarke8727]

Thank you so much, restarted my Tab A8 and now works perfectly. Your a genius 👏 👍

[@moondancerkat1716]

You're a legend! Was so frustrated as my tablet was the only device to NOT connect to new modem. I use my tablet for everything! Your video saved me. Worked like a charm. Thank you 👍👍😁

[@turtlesoupe8437]

Thank you so much! Toggling the wifi button helped a ton!!

[@suetendy6589]

Holy smokes, it worked! Went through all the steps, and the last step, where I disconnected and reconnected to the network, is what did the trick. Wow. Thanks, you saved me!

[@ehshanaa1]

Very helpfullllllllll!!!!! THE TIMEEEEE!!!!.. that’s been tricking me all this timeeee!!

[@jem8936]

Thank you so much! New Subbie here! I depend on my Samsung Tablet for entertainment purposes and I am not the most computer savvy. I almost gave up, mentally preparing to get on the phone and wait for a long time to speak with a Customer Service Rep, until I came across this video! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise. May GOD Bless you abundantly!!!

[@and-one]

Yeah 3 minutes of screaming to say "Restart your tablet and turn your WiFi on."

[@carlottagrimes-hutcheson8210]

Thanks so very much! I was having problems with my Samsung Galaxy Tab S2, with error messages about Low connections. I couldn't open any of my apps so uninstalled many of them and still was having problems. :( Check all of my settings, for WiFi - everything, nothing. Then logged on to my computer and did a search and came upon your site and watched your video, unsure since you are referencing SG Tab A, if it would work, but it was very helpful, and did resolve my problems. I just unplugged my router and plugged back in and it's working. Thanks soooo much for your video. Very helpful info. 😘 Carlotta

Incredible lifehack! You're a lifesaver! Thanks so much!

Thank you so muchh.. Was pretty frustrated and then I found your video and got it right! Subscribed❤

[@albertgilmore9703]

What I found worked the best was to return the tablet and buy something other then Samsung. This was motivated by Samsung by the poor customer support they had. My new tablet works great.

[@TheYaziman]

Thanks for the tips! the router option worked for me!!!

[@whowasthatguy1014]

Isn't this the dude who taught me how to brake car smoothly? Legend

[@antonietacoronado309]

Thank you this video information was helpful 🤗

[@blancabellomo6676]

When all that fails, what do I do??? My tab shows that the wifi is on but next to the wifi icon it has an exclamation mark which doesn't go away not matter what. I have tried all your tips but still not working. Thanks

[@GracetheWestie]

Same for me. Did you ever get it connected, if so how. Thanks

[@habibbuhukan434]

Omg finally it work after this whole time cuz my lil brother don't have internet cuz of these!! Thank you so much ❤

[@minarabegum3565]

THANK YOU SO MUCH YOUR THE BEST AND ALL YOUR METHODS WORKED! Your awesome thank you alot!

[@angelachekwe1311]

Thank you didn’t even finish watching the video upon u mentioning restarting i went to do just that and my tab is up and running😊

[@mikeforfar9493]

thanks you suggestion worked. the ISP support told me to take my tablet to the store to get it looked at. all i had to do was turn the on off button for wifi connectivity a few times and it solved the problem

[@soniamohan900]

I tried all stilling none working

[@mzcouncil30]

I know it is a year later but if you still haven’t gotten it to work change it to automatic time zone. I saw someone else on the comment section suggest it and it worked for me.

[@ProCriminalxox]

None of these worked for me :(

[@eprask]

will never buy another Samsung Tablet again

[@eprask]

Try all these and i continues not to connect

[@Ninoshkas]

Tried all of these already on a tab A from 2016 and it doesn't connect. I even reset the tablet which then was another issue because this tablet can't complete the set up without Internet connection. It connects for a few seconds and keeps disconnecting repeatly. I think is an issue with the tablet cause is old... They try to force you to buy a new one.

[@richarduy9984]

Ive also had this problem and yes i did need to buy a new one i do not recommend buying this tablet at all it has alot of issues after like three months of use its technically a scam.

[@drcanoro]

Another tip, make sure the date and time of your tablet are correct, if not, it's not gonna be able to connect.

[@sludgemaiden]

Thank you so much!! Somehow it had turned off automatic date and time! Seems it happened during the summertime shift.

[@heather1985october]

Thank you for the helpful video. Love from, Heather

[@NgedupDema]

Thank you so much it's worked after restarting

[@Histickingatt]

About as remedial as it gets, for people who barely know how to turn on a tablet

[@darkmindprod]

I just came back from deployment. What I had to do was to make sure the time and date was set to automatic.

[@Scruffybo4]

Who knew a WiFi button could turn itself off! Simple fix - thanks so much.

[@qauseenmulla2351]

I have tried everything n even switched the advanced settings to static from dhcp. Nothing worked

[@lauraleech5188]

Thank you, just restarting brought it back on line,,

[@chubbytuna77]

None of those things worked.

[@roselewsley4125]

thank you, thank you!

[@kabender8942]

IT WORKED THANK YOU SO SO MUCH

[@MichaelCoughlanmusic]

None of this works. Trust me, don't buy a Samsung Tab A.

[@malikyawarshafi1641]

thankyou man !! it worked

[@melodyjune9448]

Thanks. by restarting, and toggling off and on I got my tablet to connect. Sometimes we just don't think of the simple things, and need to be prompted.

[@ossiningsue]

Lost power yesterday, but all other devices worked after internet came back online . Connection was locked on Tab A. Couldn’t connect no matter what I did. So I added our network as if we didnt have it. That fixed it.

[@jimwood8526]

These are all things I try BEFORE I start to Google... nor helpful

[@purpleraine33844]

I can watch KZbin but literally everything else doesn't work

[@lindae1673]

Success...Yay Thank you!

[@starboys2303]

Thank you so much

[@bumblebee9727]

thank you for your video but none of the options worked this is fairly new tablet and I did not make a single change on it, one day it just decided it wouldn't connect to the internet any more.

[@Eriiisadinosaur]

None of these worked mine still wont stay connected😭 and I lost my receipt and the agent I spoke to from Samsung said that they couldn't even verify my serial number. I'm so confused.

[@kingsoren2010]

If you haven't already done so, go to settings and "Device". It tells you everything about your phone. I'm surprised they didn't tell you this. Hope this helps.

[@vitaliyshchur2222]

Thanks😊

[@perezheiras]

Thank you!! Super helpful !

[@theeverythingelectronicsst3897]

Jesus..Jesus..Jesus...Why is it that hardly anybody that posts these kindergarten videos,don't ever clue in that some of these technical problems are just not that simple to fix?. If your goal was to teach a bunch of first grader techies, well I guess that's your audience

[@steff162]

This just confirms how much samsung tablet is the worst.

[@gayathrip6271]

worked with router restart.. thanks

[@lauriejohnson5387]

I have a Samsung galaxy S2 tablet but cannot connect at a place in Victoria. Can I buy a portable WiFi. Help

[@joreldeleon8848]

mine will not see the att network. I tried the sim card on another tablet and it works. not sure what's going on with the tablet setup

[@mikellemyers]

It’s not my wifi bc everything else in my house is on the wifi even my phone and it’s working perfectly fine. The problem is when I turn on the wifi button on my tablet it turns grey and I can’t click on it. Same with the Bluetooth

[@lilyrose3161]

Love you

[@essentialist12]

Make sure you didn't accidentally set the time and date to something else, if this solution doesn't work. It's happened to me lol

[@tr0picalqueen.180]

My sky tablet would not connect the wifi icon keeps switching off. How can I fix this

[@aakashverma8340]

Authentication error occurred .... what should I do now ?

[@gugolbaho]

i did but google browser never work maybe the auto update never complete and the galaxy tab is obsolete caused google store also suddenly cannot open too

[@lauriejohnson5387]

Note... I'm old so make it easy please

[@kingsoren2010]

Did all this before watching your video, and still nothing I've tried works. My connection to the internet on pc, and phone works fine. Thanks anyway.

[@emtforjc]

Same here. Has always worked fine til now. I can get the signal to the tablet, but it still says no internet. Weird

[@emtforjc]

Nevermind! Just tried the auto date and time trick..worked! I’m connected again!

[@YourLocalWeirdo1234]

idk what’s happening, nothing is working

[@johnfaulkner6776]

All these fixes work, but not for long. I've binned mine, an A8 and good riddance. I now have a Lenovo and it just connects and works every time. So did the Google Nexus ( made by Asus) which I had before the Samsung. Samsung don't care. After 5 Samsung TVs I just bought an LG. I'm not wasting more cash with Samsung- ever!

[@theforcentral8916]

i dont think one of these solutions helped me, every online game still disconnects and wifi randomly disconnects. and i think 124 gigs are taking up stuff.

[@karnmackinlay6655]

Followed all steps, still connects but won't get internet

[@JazminRobinson-fl9uv]
