Android maybe don´t have internet connection

[juergen_dannewi]

Hi everyone,

I´ve some strange situation with Android Smartphones in our Aerohive/Extreme Network (Mix of AP250 and 305C) environment.
The Android devices itself get´s an valid IP and authenticated to the Wifi but shows the information “maybe don´t have internet connection”.
Actual Workaround: Ping the device. The first 2 packages are lost, but than the device replies and shows connected.
I´ve started this discussion last year, but with Covid-19 the situation stuck.
 

I´ve also found that we are not the only one with this situation.

I can confirm that DNS port 53 and 853 is open for this dedicated Wifi VLAN on our firewall.
I´ve added the DNS ports for the native VLAN of the APs to this internal DNS server, now.
 

Does anyone has an idea, if this won´t help, how we could troubleshoot this?

Thankful for every idea!

set a rssi threshold to -70

disable band steering or load balancing

disable private wlan adress on client

Hi @juergen.dannewitz,

Setup :

ISP (Proximus or Telenet, I have both now for testing but same result - Belgium).
DHCP, DNS, Firewall and Gateway from the ISP router.

On the ISP Router :
1 Cable connected to a HP Aruba switch 1930 8G POE (also cloud management)​ as uplink.
1 Cable connected to a HP Aruba switch 1930 24G POE (also cloud management)​ as uplink.

Switches :
HP 8G -  1x AP 305C
HP 24G - 1x AP460C and 1x AP305C

Security Protecition OFF on the ports for the AP's.

AP's :

1 Management VLAN 1 for all.

So 3 AP's in total in the home enviroment.

I also checkt 2 commands directly on 1 AP with Putty and these where the results :

show version
show interface mgt0

Hi,
I´ve maybe found an workaround for that.
We still experience this situation in different locations.
The setup:
Firewall (VLAN as GW, tagged) -> Core switch VLan (Vlan tagged on Port) -> Access switch (Vlan tagged on Port)-> AP (SSID VLAN, tagged)

SSID: VLAN which uses the Firewall as Gateway.
DHCP: relay on Firewall for VLAN subnet
DNS: Google 8.8.8.8
DHCP Lease Time: 30min

What is seen in the logs:
Client gets an IP from DHCP and tries to contact DNS several times.
No more other traffic is generated than DNS.

Workaround:
Clear the ARP-Cache on the Firewall/Routing device.
in our case the command "clear arp-cache".

Hi, 

we are using the Aerohive/Extreme APs in an enterprise environment with a licensed On-Prem management server v21.1.22.1-IQVA.

The newest AP firmware for that management is actually 10.3.r3.

Never seen the free version or Cloud version, but we need to change to the Cloud version because we get the information that the On-Prem is EOS in December 2022.

How is your Home use setup?

AP is connected via patch line to the ISP Router which is used for DHCP, DNS, Firewall and Gateway?

No VLAN etc?

Hi @juergen.dannewitz,

Sorry for the delay.
Maybe this could a stupid question but 'Client Trail' is that a feature that's not included in the free version off the ExtremeCloud IQ?
I don't have a license, i use it free because this is installed in private home and for now we don't need a payed license.

The only thing i can do is creating a report (Report-Client-WiFi).
And I see on the android device many 0.0.0.0 IP's in the list :



In the other post : https://community.extremenetworks.com/question/some-apps-on-android-devices-are-not-responding-ap130#4b47ce53-5215-4c7f-aa34-51d1b157d61a

There has been a firmware downgrade but i don't know the specific version, maybe you have any idea?

Best Regards,
