[Solved] No WLAN on mobile phone

@willifly I'm moved your reply to a new topic as the other topic where you've replied was solved already.

To investigate your case please provide the info asked here as well as an example how to reproduce the issue.

THX!

Meanwhile the message stopped coming. That's why the question is whether this could be a possible issue with WLAN problems.

With your post please always report

• Hardware you use for running eBlockerOS

• • Raspberry Pi 4 4gb

• eBlockerOS version as well as filter lists version

• • eBlockerOS Version 3.1.0
  • eBlocker Blockierlisten Version 2024-04-30-09-15-03

• eBlocker network mode (auto, individual or expert)

• • Individual

• eBlocker network settings (IP, mask, gateway)

• • IP-Adresse (eBlocker) 192.168.2.29
  • Netzwerkmaske 255.255.255.0
  • Gateway/Router 192.168.2.1
  •  
• Which devices runs DHCP server? Router/external, eBlocker or client fixed IP?
  • Router Fritzbox 7490
  •  
• IPv6 disabled for client/network?
  • enabled
• eBlocker DNS firewall settings 
  • externe DNS Server
• Client network settings (IP, mask, DNS, gateway)
  • IP4 automatisch; 192.168.2.22 Router: 192.168.2.1; Maske: 255.255.255.0
  • IP6  There are two addresses and the router address:

• Whether eBlocker’s https integration is enabled for client 
  • Yes and tested
• Client browser and OS version (i.e. FireFox 80.1 running on macOS 13.4)
  • iOs version 17.4.1
  • In my case, the message also comes up when checking the emails: "The WiFi does not seem to be connected to the Internet. Do you want to use mobile data?"
• Additional non default Blockers enabled? (like DuckDuckGo, Consent-Blocker, custom lists etc.)
• HTTPS Auto Trust App enabled?
  • yes
• Exact way or a link / screenshot to reproduce the issue
  • At the moment no message appears anymore after I deleted all DNS entries in the WLAN connection and left only the eBlocker.
• If VPN or Tor is enabled for the client in eBlocker (and which VPN provider you are using)
  • If used-cyberghost but here not used
• Are automatic updates enabled?
  • yes

@willifly Firstly, there is a severe configuration error: With the settings above all traffic (but DNS) of the iOS device will by-pass eBlocker (as the client's gateway is pointing to the router). See https://eblocker.org/community/announcements/why-directing-dns-to-eblocker-is-not-sufficient/

Please set eBlocker's IP 192.168.2.29 as the Gateway in the iOS device (manually).

Secondly, you've configured quite a few DNS server. If there is an unreliable DNS (among those) and iOS can't resolve the portal check domain, it will briefly disable WLAN and try to re-connect.

If I were you I'd try to reduce the DNS servers to 1 or 2 reliable ones and check if the issue persists.

THX!

Ashes on your head! I checked all mobile devices and the entries were as they should be. I followed the instructions. The background to DNS is as follows: I only ever entered two and the second DNS was usually stated as not secure or slow.

I assumed that the eBlocker selects or checks here dynamically. But with this knowledge I can keep an eye on the DNS servers.

Now for the solution. For whatever reason, the eBlocker in my new cell phone didn't activate and that's where these entries came from. Did the behavior come from being reported? I don't know. I have learned a lot and will have to be even more careful.

Thank you for the help and patience!

@willifly First of all I'm happy everthing works now.

Unfortunately, I don't understand what you mean by

If you feel we can improve eBlocker in some sense, please share. At the very moment I just see some configuration issues resulting from not following Setup Instruction. 🤔
