Samsung Galaxy S7 on Verizon, Android 7.0
Western Digital N750 Dual band router, with 4 networks set up (regular and guest nets on both 2.4 and 5.6). My normal wifi connection is to the regular 2.4 net.
A week or so ago I was connected to my normal home 2.4 net when I had a popup saying something about some abnormal wifi activity being detected and asked if I wanted to block this, or words to that effect (wish I had kept notes on exactly what it said). I clicked the button to block it.
Since then I have not been able to connect to that same home net. It goes through the motions, says I'm connected then immediately disconnects and reconnects to one of the other 3 home nets. None of my other devices have any trouble connecting to this net, so it seems to be a problem with the phone only. I cannot find anything about how to remove this block that I apparently added.
I have told it to "forget" the problem net, but it still cannot hold the connection after I reconnect and add in the password.
Elsewhere I've seen recommendations to turn off Smart Switch, but that hasn't helped.
And of course, I've rebooted the phone a number of times.
Any suggestions?
