TP-Link WR841N Router Blocking YouTube App on Android Devices Despite Stable Connection

Best answers LABEL_AI_GENERATED

How can I fix the YouTube app on Android when a TP-Link WR841N router shows “check network connection” even though the rest of the internet works normally?

Set the router’s DNS servers in the DHCP settings; adding 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4, or the ISP’s DNS servers, fixed the YouTube app on the Android phones [#16403017][#16403089] The router in the thread was a TP-Link WR841N v9 running firmware 3.15.9 Build 140530 Rel. 37695n, and a newer firmware package for v9 was also suggested [#16403011][#16403017] After saving the DNS values, YouTube started working again [#16403089]

    As for the title, the router has been blocking Youtube applications on my phone for some time.
    He shows me "check network connection", I will add that all other google applications and all the rest of the internet works fine, and if you open YouTube on your phone from a Google browser, it goes without a problem.
    The wife has the same phone and has the same problem.
    I have already restored the phone and router to the factory settings and nothing helped.
    Please help !!

    What kind of internet provider is this? Tp-Link connected to the internet via WAN port? Is the latest available software installed on TP-link?

    supplier is a local company Wiktor from Horseradish.
    I tried to update the router's software and even downloaded the file, but when I try to load it, I get an error with the wrong file name.

    Which router's hardware version and what software did you download? If you don't know what's going on, show the picture from the Router Status tab.

    I added these dns's in the preferred and alternative box and youtube worked.
    I hope for a longer time because from time to time it surprises after rebooting the router.

    and thanks for patience with the novice

The TP-Link WR841N router is reported to block the YouTube app on Android devices, despite a stable internet connection. Users have noted that other Google applications function correctly, and YouTube can be accessed via a web browser. After attempting factory resets on both the router and the phone, the issue persisted. Suggestions included checking the router's firmware version and updating it, as well as configuring DNS settings. The user successfully resolved the issue by adding DNS servers (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) in the DHCP settings, which allowed YouTube to function properly, although concerns about the stability of this solution were expressed.
