VPN won't connect on Pixel 3 Unlocked Version / Android 9.0 - Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers

Has anyone tried and/or successfully gotten the VPN setting to work to connect to their VPN? I use it to connect to my home VPN on all my other devices (Galaxy S4, S7, Note 10.1 2014, iPhone 6's, etc) and connects just fine on those devices, but won't connect (unsuccessful message) on the Pixel 3 Unlocked version. I've never had an issue with any other device and they are all still working fine. I have done all the usual power cycling and what not, and I always just use the normal default PPTP VPN settings (nothing advanced). I'm on the December 5th Security Patch.

There's been another thread about this. Don't know what they concluded, but I use PIA VPN and it works fine with my Pixel 3.

VPN issue 8.0

Is anyone else have an issue using VPN on 3g/4g on the Pixel XL with android 8.0? On wifi the VPN works fine but on data the VPN will connect but will not load any pages? I also have a galaxy S8 on T-mobile too and the VPN has no issues on 3g/4g. I did a factory reset with no luck. Im starting to think this may be a android 8.0 bug?
Works fine for me

Android 9 not connecting to WiFi when screen is locked

Hello,
I have a stock Motorola Z3 Play running on Pie and there's one issue I can't solve.
When I get back home it won't connect to my WiFi network unless I unlock the screen. I don't know if it's a bug or a feature. I never had this issue on any of my previous phones, my wife has a Galaxy Xcover 4 running on 7.0 and it connects even before she enters the house.
I have presence detection based on wireless clients list on my smart home controller and having to unlock the phone manually each time I get back just kills the idea.
Is there any option I could miss in the settings that could force such behavior?

VPN suddenly won't connect through Google wifi

hi....I don't know where to post this, but I need help.
up until 3 days ago, I had no problem using my VPN through Google wifi. worked beautifully.
however, for the least 3 days, I cannot get connected. I've tried both on my android phone (Galaxy note 8) and my android tablet (Galaxy tab a; both android v9). spent an hour+ with VPN support, then realized that I COULD get connected on phone if I turned Google wifi off (just used phone data). i still can't get connect with tablet, which is only wifi.
for some reason, Google wifi is blocking the VPN connection (recent update?). why? and more importantly, how do i fix it?
thank you!

Samsung A20e fails to connect to VPN

Hi!
I bought my Samsung A20e phone before 1 month. I work remotely through VPN, so my phone is very important for my work. I configured my work VPN on my Samsung phone through Settings->Connections->More connection settings->VPN and it used to connect successfully. But these days it keeps failing with the status 'Unsuccessful', it does not connect anymore. While I use the same VPN (with the same configuration) on a Xiaomi Redmi phone and on my HP computer.
Please has anybody of you faced this problem? Can you suggest any solution?
With respect,
Megi

Redmi 9C connected to wifi but no Internet

I just bought this phone and I'm trying to use it in my network. I use Ubiquiti products (16-port switches and a bunch of AP access points). I connected the phone via wifi to my network and it has no problem for a while until it just doesn't have Internet connection. It stays connected with its IP address intact but for some reason it cannot seem to reach the Internet. The workaround is to simply turn off the wifi module and turn it back on. It's randomly happening and the workaround is very annoying.
I have a couple of other mobile devices (iPads, iPhones, Android phones, Windows laptops, etc.) and I never experienced the issue with these. I tried connecting the Redmi 9C to all my wifi networks:
Guest wifi with captive portal
Main wifi with RADIUS authentication
IoT wifi with regular WPA2 personal authentication
I tried resetting the wifi settings of the phone. I tried reinstalling the latest MIUI fw/sw.
and the result is the same, every time. At this point, I can safely consider that there has to be something wrong with the phone. I'm not sure if it's because of the MIUI 12 update because I updated the phone to the latest firmware as soon as I got it out of the box. Is this a known issue with this phone? I have another Xiaomi phone (Mi Mix 3) on the same network without any issues.
Any ideas?
