[Solved] Android Adblock plus browser problem.
August 5th, 2016
I’ve installed adblock plus to my samsung note.
It chose a subscription for me: “fanboy’s list”
It slows the phone down so I uninstalled it. Now I can’t connect to anything from my web browser.
Now when I connect to wifi, I can’t access any websites, even google.
But I can use the facebook app and playstore app.
I don’t have dataplan to test with.
When I installed adblock again, my browser could connect. Is there a way to revert it back to the way it was?
Thanks
From what I remember, Adblock Plus works by re-routing the traffic through a local proxy (Adblock Plus).
Try reconfiguring your connection by navigating to ‘Settings’ > ‘WiFi’ > long press on the SSID you’re connected to > ‘Modify network’ > check mark ‘Show advanced options’ > under proxy, select ‘None’ and then hit ‘OK’.
That ought to do it.
Its fixed! Thanks
Glad I could be of help. Cheers.
