Wi-Fi Connection Issues

I am having issues getting the Razr to connect to the home wi-fi.  This issue began about a week ago, everything was fine before that.  NOTHING has changed on the router.  Razr is connected to wi-fi with an excellent signal, but all icons on the phone are grey, not blue.  As such NOTHING using data works.  If I disconnect from Wi-Fi, everything is fine.  The phone connects great on the work wi-fi.  Any help would be GREATLY appreciated as this is quite annoying.

Thanks,Stasi

Do you have other devices at home that connect properly to your home's router? e.g., a Laptop?  Have you powered off and on the router? Have you tried disconnecting the home WiFi address (remove it on the phone under settings/wifi) and re-adding it? (If a secured router, you'll need to re-enter the password of course). After all that I would boot into SAFE MODE and see if it connects that way - just to rule out any newly installed 3rd party app.

Sorry, I should have mentioned that there are other devices that do work via wi-fi (laptops).  And Cody21, I should have known better, as the easy answer is typically the right answer.  I powered down the router, waited a few minutes and low and behold - I have wi-fi on the phone.

Yeah, safe mode and restore were next on my list. 

Thanks for your help.
