Everything on the phone works perfect but as soon as it connects to the 5g network, I can't access internet. Vzw just sent me a new 5g Sim card but same thing. 4g area works fine. Help please.

Are you using the Samsung Internet application on the device or another Search Engine (Google,Samsung, MicroEdge) to connect to the Web? Definitely sounds like a security feature on the search engine (Google most likely) . Try a different Search Engine and see if you have same issue. I am willing to bet that a security feature is clicked inside the application settings preventing the connection.  Check that your security setting in Google marked (Http ) is not clicked. I have had massive issues with web site security being expired as far as the search engine goes . I work in IT Security and it is a real issue right now.

I tried all browsers including the Samsung browser. Same thing. Email won't sync either.

I will add that I don't believe it is a network issue. It definitely seems to be a application security setting or a security setting on the device.

Hello. I don't mind having to keep my phone at 4g but still would like the ability to use the 5g if needed. When the phone connects to 5g, I have no internet connection available at all. Not email, Samsung browser, Firefox or Chrome.  Everything else including phone calls, text and mms messages all still work.

Hello.  I've been taught to never click on a suspicious link.  Your link could be spoofing.

I also have no idea or way to see if your profile is real or you are just someone pretending to have that user name.
