There have always been connection problems in Google products, and they appear regardless of Android versions (5.1, 6.0, 7.0 and higher). In this article we will look in detail at the error in Play Market– “There is no Internet connection. Check your connection to WiFi or cellular network,” and the Internet on the phone is active and everything is loading in the browser or other applications. We will describe solutions for common sources of the bug and special cases.
Causes of connection error
So, there may be several main reasons affecting connection to the Play Store. The most popular of them are broken time settings on Android and cluttered phone services with caches. Special cases include software blocking of the Network due to the use of hacking programs, or specific settings Wi-Fi points. Let's talk about everything in order.
What to do first?
I will not describe for a long time the most necessary steps - rebooting the device itself (you can remove the battery) and restarting the router itself. Moreover, it is also advisable to unplug Wi-Fi for 5-10 minutes, which will be very useful in the case of dynamic IP addresses.
It would be a good idea to immediately check the time, date and zone associated with your device. Due to operating system failures, these parameters may disappear. To set the correct ones, open the website 2ip.ru. Your IP and city will be indicated there (more precisely, the city of your provider). Look online to see what time zone the city has and set it on your phone. Time and date can be left on automatic online definition– the main thing is that they are displayed correctly.
By the way, such cleaning will be relevant if you periodically use VPN connections on the phone. Often the network may crash due to applications like SuperVPN, Turbo VPN or VPN Unlimited.
Erasing Freedom-type burglars
Often third party applications may affect communications and the Internet on the phone (Meizu, Xiaomi, Samsung). View the list before installed programs ok and erase all unnecessary. Pay special attention to software that acts as a “cracker” and “cheater”. For example, many Android owners encounter a blocking error “No Internet connection” in the Market due to Freedom, Lucky Patcher and similar programs.

To check and edit HOSTS with the above managers, you will need ROOT access - keep in mind that latest versions Android, this may cause problems. Explore this point further online.
What else helps
There are a few additional tips, which helped some users. Of course, it’s not a fact that this will be effective for you, but do this anyway:

Conclusion
Failure to login to the Play Market “There is no Internet connection, check your Wi-Fi connection” is a fairly common problem, but it can be solved quite quickly. If you still have any difficulties, write in the comments below (we read everything, we always try to help).
Recently, many Xiaomi smartphone owners suddenly encountered a very strange situation. When you try to download an application from Google Play Market, a regular picture appears with the inscription “Downloading” and a “slider” showing the progress of this download, but on the right there is a message: “ Waiting for Wi-Fi network". In fact, downloading does not occur, and the “waiting” can last as long as desired. Interestingly, the problem occurs both when Wi-Fi is working normally and when connecting to the Internet via a SIM card via mobile network. Moreover, its appearance does not depend on either the firmware version or the model. Xiaomi devices.
It is clear that the cause of the error is not the connection of the smartphone to the Internet. Experts have determined that this version is to blame Google Play Store a 7.6. To date, we have found several ways to solve the problem, and we are ready to introduce you to them.
Method 1: Substitution of Google Play Store file
To resolve the "Waiting for Wi-Fi network" error, try running on your Xiaomi smartphone the following procedure:Applications from the Google Play Store should be downloaded normally, without the “Waiting for Wi-Fi network” error appearing.
Method 2: Google Play Store firmware via Recovery
In order to use this method, you will need an unlocked bootloader and recovery menu TWPR. The steps to correct the "Waiting for Wi-Fi network" error are as follows:After this, applications from the Market should load normally.
Play Market is an excellent resource that allows you to download various applications for Android. This is the most convenient way to download the games and programs you need to work with Android devices. Many may have problems with work of this service, for example: the Play Market does not work, there is no connection, let’s look at the problems themselves and their solutions in detail.
Possible problems
In fact, the Play Market is a fairly powerful online store that can provide all its users quite well, but sometimes problems may arise when working with it.

These problems can be of a different nature, so let’s look at each in more detail.
So, what kind of problems could there be:
- The first reason is the lack of internet connection. This may be due to a failure in the settings of both the router and the smartphone itself. Thus, Wi-Fi is connected, but there is no Internet itself. Also, there is a possibility that the Internet speed is so low that it simply does not support the Play Market;
- In some situations, which occur quite rarely, the store itself does not work. In such cases, you just need to wait some time before the Play Market restores its operation;
- There are also cases when PlayMarket does not work due to a problem with the hosts file installed on the device. This happens in cases where the file is edited automatically by the system. In this case, it is quite simple to fix it;
- The last reason is that the date and time are wrong. In this case, the work of the Play Market will not be of high quality.
These are, perhaps, all the problems that make the Play Market impossible to work. In principle, each of them can be solved, and this is done quite simply, which will allow you to quickly and efficiently set up your work. The most important thing is to know what to do if the Play Market does not work and how to fix all these problems. This is what we will look at next.

Solution
It is logical to assume that it is necessary to solve problems that arise when working with the Play Market, especially since it does not take large quantity time, and does not require special programming skills. Therefore, now we will describe possible options that can help in solving certain problems:
![](https://i2.wp.com/proremontpk.ru/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Android-error-498.jpg)
If you root, the device becomes out of warranty. You can get rid of root, but at the same time, any specialist will definitely be able to notice that the device has been rooted. Therefore, decide whether to root for yourself first.
So, if you decide to install root this way, then you should start by downloading the program. At the same time, not every one can be suitable, so you need to see which program is suitable for your device and only then try to install it on your computer.
Google Play Market does not work via WiFi
The lack of connection to the Play Market via Wi-Fi may be due to exactly the same reasons as the lack of connection via the Internet. The reasons that WiFi stopped working are exactly the same, and their solutions are no different. The only difference may be in the connections themselves. That is, connecting to a wireless network can be more “capricious”.

In more detail, the problem with connecting to a wireless network is quite logical and understandable. And first of all, it’s worth checking how correctly you are connected to Wi-Fi. Only after this, check the operation of the Play Market and hosts file. The fact that Wi-Fi is not working is easy to understand, you will see that it is on gray icon WiFi.
Then you can check your device, be it a phone or tablet, for other problems that may well arise. Also, do not rush to root your device, as this will make it out of warranty. In principle, this is not so scary, but still, I wouldn’t want to.
Resetting the settings
Resetting settings when Android is not working can also be a great solution to problems, as it helps update the device, and thus, it may be that the problem was in the settings. It can often happen that when working with some programs, they themselves change the settings, making them more accessible to themselves. That's why resetting the settings helps.
I would also like to note that resetting the settings helps in most cases. The only thing worth remembering is that you don’t need to do this all the time, because constantly changing the settings will not have a very good effect on the operation of the device.
The most important thing to understand is that if your device was made in China, then changing the settings will be a little more problematic.
Setting up a proxy in case of problems with Wi-Fi
Any Wi-Fi network can be connected through a proxy server.
This is quite convenient, and therefore we will describe in more detail exactly how to do this:
![](https://i1.wp.com/proremontpk.ru/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/8-besprovodnye-seti-wifi-android-640x640.gif)
That's all you need to set up a proxy server and connect to Wi-Fi using it. You also need to know that the proxy server settings are set differently for each network.
Wireless DNS Settings
If it happened to you that wireless connection connection to the Internet happened, but not a single web page works. Usually, this results in a server error. And if they take quite a long time to load, then the problem may not only be a bad signal. This may also be related to DNS settings.
Photo: wireless connection parameters
DNS is a Domain Name Service server and is always provided by your ISP. And you should understand that without good work of this server, your work with the network will never be fast and high-quality.
Changing MTU
To understand what MTU is, you don’t need to be a programmer, but at the same time, most sites give quite complex definition this parameter, which is not always convenient, the most important thing is to know that MTU is the value of a parameter in the router, without which there will be no normal operation of the network.
It is recommended to change the MTU settings if you were unable to change the DNS settings or they themselves did not change.
That is, first of all, it is still advised to use the DNS parameters, and only after that proceed to MTU. This will help solve the problem when a web page does not launch for a long time.
Updating the application
So, if you are trying to access the Play Market, but you can’t, then you should try the simplest solution to all problems - updating the program. It's quite easy to do and won't take up much of your time. Moreover, it is logical to assume that this is the easiest way to do it rather than think for a long time about setting up the router parameters.
Photo: updating applications directly from the tablet
An update is a fairly quick and high-quality way to solve problems with the Play Market and its operation. You should also understand that there may be a slight snag in the operation of the program itself. In this case, they advise you to wait a while and come back again.
Installing utilities
Utilities, in short, are special programs for smartphones. They help make the job much easier and better. In order to make working with the Play Market easier, you can install additional utilities that will undoubtedly help with this. Such programs can help make working with the Play Market much easier, and will also make it so that there are no special problems.

Why Market doesn't work on my phone
The work of the Play Market is rarely problematic, but sometimes minor difficulties may arise. The reasons why this can happen can vary and have been described previously. But that’s it, the main reason why PlayMarket may not work is a change in the operating system.
This is what mainly affects it, and there is a way, the simplest one is to return to the factory settings, but there is some drawback here, all the information that was on the phone is lost.
This is probably something no one would want, so there is another quite effective way:
![](https://i2.wp.com/proremontpk.ru/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/izuchaem-android-kak-otklyuchit-razdrazhayushchie-uvedomleniya-android-prilozheniy-2-640x640.png)
So, as we found out, the work of the Play Market is quite simple, and difficulties with it can rarely be encountered. But if they do arise, then you should first take those steps that are least harmful to the device itself and do not greatly affect the settings. Especially check the date and time, or wait for the Play Market itself to load.
Many Android device users encounter a problem when PlayMarket does not work on Android, as through Mobile Internet, and via Wi-Fi. Because of this, they cannot download any normal application, and installing programs from third-party sources is known to threaten the security of the smartphone. Usually, when the Play Market does not work on Android, it says “no connection”, “server error”, “an error has occurred” or “check the connection”. It’s worth noting right away that the Play Market may not work for many reasons. In this article we will look at all these reasons and methods to eliminate them.
Google Play Market does not open - If you notice that Google Play has stopped functioning on your smartphone, first try restarting the device. It's likely that your system is simply frozen. This happens quite often with all Android devices. It is worth saying that rebooting the device can fix bugs not only in the Play Market, but also in other applications that you have noticed are not working correctly. However, it may also be that after a restart the problem will not be solved. In this case, try another method to solve this problem.

YouTube and Google Play (aka Play Store) are probably the two most popular and necessary programs on Android. Without the first one, you won’t be able to watch your favorite videos, and without the second one, you won’t be able to install any program or game on your tablet or smartphone. I think everyone will agree with this.
And it’s very sad when YouTube or Google Play doesn’t work. Precisely when connected to the Internet via Wi-Fi. And this happens quite often. Not long ago a question on this topic was published on the site. It has already collected quite a few comments, so I decided to put the solution to this problem in a separate article. I'll tell you about the solutions known to me. Which, judging by the reviews, really work.
And the problem is this. We take our phone or tablet that runs on Android and is connected to Wi-Fi networks, we open the same YouTube, and there is an error: “Check your network connection” and a gray exclamation mark.
And in the Play Store through the same WiFi connection An error appears: "There is no Internet connection. Check your Wi-Fi or cellular network connection and try again."
Although our smartphone is connected to Wi-Fi. You can even see this in the screenshot. No. Sites open in the browser. So the Internet is working. Other programs also have access to the Internet.
Important point: Everything works via mobile Internet (3G/4G). The Play Store allows you to install apps, and YouTube videos are displayed and played. Doesn't work only via Wi-Fi. And as a rule, only through a specific Wi-Fi network and on all Android devices. And maybe on others too. It doesn't matter.
Problem: There is no access to these two services from Google when connected only to a specific wireless network. Everything works through another internet connection.
If you have YouTube and/or Market does not work through any connection, even through cellular communication, then in the article I will also try to collect solutions to this problem.
To start:
- Reboot your phone, tablet, Android TV box, or whatever you have.
- Reboot your router. If there is such a possibility.
- Check the operation of YouTube and the Market via another Internet connection. Mobile connection, or another Wi-Fi network.
- Try opening a website in your browser mobile device. You can try going to the same YouTube. If nothing works in the browser either, different sites do not open, then see the article.
- It is advisable to check if everything works on other devices.
After these steps, you should already roughly understand what exactly the reason is. Well, start from the results of these checks if you ask a question in the comments.
Let's start with the main solution.
Changing DNS in Android if YouTube and Play Market do not see the Internet connection
As practice shows, it is changing the DNS addresses of the Wi-Fi network that helps get rid of this problem. Why is this happening? Honestly, I don't know. Either due to problems with the ISP's DNS servers, or something in the router settings.
Therefore, we need to register DNS addresses from Google in the properties of the “problematic” Wi-Fi network on the phone. Or register these addresses in the Internet connection properties in the router’s web interface. Let's consider both options. But I recommend checking everything on your own first Android device. If it works, and you have several other devices with the same problem, then you can try changing the DNS on the router.
I will show you the example of a smartphone from Samsung. But there shouldn’t be any significant differences between other devices.
Go to settings, go to "Connections" - "Wi-Fi". Click on your network and hold. A menu should appear where we need to select something like “Manage network settings”.
These are DNS addresses from Google. Which I talked about in the article: .
We check that proxies are disabled (No) and save the settings.
After this everything should work.
One point: in Android there is no way to specify only static DNS and receive the IP and gateway automatically. And that's not very good. Since disabling DHCP (automatically obtaining all addresses from the router), we have set a static IP address. In my case 192.168.1.164. And if, when you reconnect to this network, this IP address is busy, then we will not be able to connect. Unless you reserve this IP address in the DHCP server settings on the router.
Therefore, if you have problems connecting to a Wi-Fi network, then know that it is most likely due to static addresses. Just change the last digit in the address (from 100 to 254), or back to Android settings install DHCP. And DNS addresses can be registered in the router settings.
I show how to do this using the example of a TP-Link router.
After this, all devices connected to this router will use the set DNS addresses.
I hope you were able to solve the problem with accessing YouTube through the application and Google store Play.
Additional solutions for connection errors in the YouTube application and Google Play
It is possible that these two applications do not work even when connected to different wireless networks and via mobile Internet. In this case, check whether the Internet works on your smartphone at all. You can simply open a website in your browser. If the Internet does not work, then we are solving the connection problem. At the beginning of the article I provided a link to a page where everything is described in detail.
Well, let's look at a few more solutions that may come in handy.
