Hi. I am using a Nokia Lumia 800 and I am having some issues on my Internet Connection. I don't have issues on connecting to Wi-Fi, but when going through my browser to my Network settings to connect, it will work fine for few days and then later, my browser won't display webpages correctly. I checked on the settings and there seems to be no issues. I saw a 3G sign and that I am also connected to the Internet. However, I am unable to browse any web pages. I want to know if this is an issue with my phone or with the connection itself. Please send me some guidance and help. Thanks.

Solution Two: Reset Your Phone
This process will erase all data from your phone and restore your device settings to their default values.
Please backup your data before proceeding with this method.

In Smartphones, there are two ways to connect to the internet: Packet Data and Wi-Fi. If you are in an area that doesn’t have public Wi-Fi, you can use your phone’s Packet Data connection to connect to the internet. When you use this connection, you will be using your network provider or cellular network to connect to the internet.
Now, if there is Wi-Fi like when you’re at home, you can use either of the two options to connect to the internet. When you connect to the internet via Wi-Fi, you have to turn off or disable Packet Data. The same goes to the other. When you connect via Packet Data, Wi-Fi has to be disabled.
Now, if you can’t connect to the internet, check if both connections are enabled. If both are turned on, turn off the other one like turn off “Packet Data” if you want to use Wi-Fi. This should fix the problem.
The “3G” symbol you see on your phone’s screen points to your current network type which can be 2G, 3G, or 4G depending on what network is available in your area and your phone’s supported network type.
