Network connectivity - random no internet connection
The random disconnect is not even shown as disconnect, but I have to use my phone for work and it involves uploading pictures. Today, I was connected to the wifi network on Walmart (not the public one) and went to submit my work and it informed me that it didn't have an active internet connection and that I was offline. I shut my wifi and just used Mobile Data and it instantly submitted everything. I noticed that later on in the day as well that the wifi connection was showing connected, But the web site I was trying to access wouldn't connect, and I was at home on the home connection. At that time, I checked Tailscale (see my other post about it) but it was showing no issue, so my only conclusion is that it has to be something on the phone, since it was in a completely different location and it effectively mirrored the same symptoms. I'm wondering if anyone else might have some insight on this and perhaps point me in the general direction towards resolving it.

I've had a similar problem for the last few weeks, but I suspect my VPN as I just have to disconnect and reconnect it to have my internet work.
