Any ideas?? Really frustrating...
 
Solution
It sounds like your router is broken. I assume you have tried rebooting it. Have you tried a factory reset? If that doesn't help, then I expect you will to replace it.
From your description, it sounds like the wifi shuts off when there is a wired connection to the router (I assume you are using 1 router for WiFi and Ethernet). This could be a super weird feature of the router or perhaps a fault. What is the router model number?

Does your phone get kicked off the WiFi or just no more data going through?

Are you using any static IP addresses?
