I have a Wireless router and two WiFi devices....an Android phone and an Android tablet

The LAN IP address of the Router is 192.168.1.2
The LAN IP address of the Gateway is 192.168.1.1
The WiFi IP address of the phone is 192.168.1.50
The WiFi IP address of the Tablet is 192.168.1.51

The Phone AND Tablet both show as connected Devices to the Router
The phone CAN connect to the Internet......the tablet cannot

The MAC address of both the phone and the tablet are correctly entered into the Wireless Access List.
I tried turning OFF the WiFi Access List.

I powered the tablet completely off as well as the router and restarted them both.
I can find nothing stopping the tablet from accessing the Internet

Suggestions?

Double check the WiFi settings of the tablet. Often simply making it forget the remembered WiFi is enough.

Thanks,
I did try that....several times. I even reset the router itself.

I just found the issue.
I set the Gateway on the device that would not connect to the router itself rather than the base port.

So I had the Gateway as 192.168.50.2, instead of 192.168.50.1

Problem solved.
