Hi,
I cannot access the Google Play Store and several secure sites on ANY android device (S3 i9305 & S4 i9505) via Wifi on my router.
Sites/store are accessible via my simcard.
An example is Hotmail. I can access it via my iPhone, and laptops. But ALL Android devices cannot access Hotmail (can get to 'login' page, but after enter details page will not load).
I'm using a Dlink-DIR-632A (running DD-WRT v24-sp2).

What type of connection do you have?
PPPoE (DSL), Cable, Fiber?
It could be due to MTU problem. Try lowering it to 1440...
Or this could be due to ISP DNS problem. Try to use public dns like 8.8.8.8, 4.2.2.1 or 208.67.222.222
Or something else...
I have a modem/wifi router downstairs which works fine (ie android devices work when connect) but it's the AP upstairs (DD-WRT DHCP setup server Dlink 632) where it wont connect allow android devices to connect to such sites/services.
I went to Setup-networking-bridging and changed the MTU to 1500.
So surprised this isn't a more common issue.
MTU generally defaults to 1500 anyway, which is why it's likely not a problem for the majority _________________ TPLINK TL-WR2543ND (5GHz)
