Try to ensure that you are using the 2.4GHz channel for WiFi, if your router has that and 5GHz.

If you can pair with your router using the WPS button method instead of typing in the security key on your phone, I've found that was more foolproof in getting the phone properly authenticated with the router for network access.

Is this your router?

Also, when you connect your phone via WiFi to this router:

1. There are no network problems downloading with a web browser or the Play store

but

2. the WiFi network does not seem to work when an app wants to download data?

The Play store is also an app, so that is why I am asking for clarification of the error symptoms.

Are you running the "stock" operating system, or have you rooted+unlocked the phone to run a custom ROM?

This "ghost wifi" issue as I call it is happening on some devices/roms. I was on synergy r73 for quite a while and would have this issue, fully connected, no data transfer. Toggling on then off would repair it temporarily, but sometimes when trying to toggle, the toggle would just hang for about 15 seconds before shutting it off. Others have reported this too, your not alone. I am currently running Jellybomb which is based off of vrlg7, where as Synergy r73 is based on vrlg1 and I am no longer having the issue. It is possible that this is an issue with the baseband and not the rom as originally thought. You could odin to stock, take the ota and then try the whole thing over again and see if that works, or just flash a rom based on a more current baseband, not just flashing a radio. Again, I have no idea what the issue is, myself and others that were discussing it a ways back never had a clear answer to the issue, but so far what I just explained has worked for me so far.
