BB Support gave me the following solution:

"We do have a current work around for this matter and that is to drop internet security type to WEP. If you are not able to do it, you'll need to contact your internet provider to make the change on the admin page of their router.

Also please let us know the information below.

I'm guessing that this is with the March patch?

I never had the problem before the AAW377 upgrade. it seems to occur when I try to access a link within a Firefox web page or some NYTimes links. From BBsupport, they seem to want to determine which routers have the problem.

That is not a very good solution as that protocol is not very secure for wifi. I think others have mentioned dropping the wifi to the 2.4 (is it?) frequency can also work???

But there are other threads on this issue.

It's not a router problem or everything would have an issue with those routers.

I just got this problem with the May patch too. I have a K1 with a PRD-xxx-33 which didn't get anything since December 2017. Using the 2.4Ghz did help. But just last night I lost all connectivity even with 4G LTE. Had to do a reboot.

Disappointing!

Here are the two main threads on the subject! I highly recommend to call BlackBerry and open tickets; the more tickets we open the most they can get a grasp as to how wide the problem is:

Same problem here, sometimes it even effects mobile data.

It's working again after a reboot but flight mode and all doesn't solve it.

Is this the same bug as OP has?
