When I go between connecting to wifi at work, home and neighbor's houses, I frequently lose the ability to connect to email accounts and Facebook. That is, I leave the vicinity of one wifi router, arrive at another, the phone finds it and connects, but I'm unable to connect to mail servers or Facebook for up/downloading data. Facebook tells me I have no access to internet, despite being connected to the local wifi router. Attempts to sync email accounts fail. Attempts to send mail result in those messages going to outboxes where they remain stuck until I cycle power on the phone. I can sometimes establish connections by shutting down wifi and using 4G. Sometimes I actually have to shut off wifi and reboot to 4G before I can connect with these apps. Other apps (e.g., browser) seem to work fine.
Android version is 4.1.2. The Facebook version is 2.1, which is old but I'd like to avoid newer versions since I've heard bad reviews. The mail app is the native app that came with the phone.
Any ideas as to what may be going on here?
