I was trying to video chat using hangouts, but for whatever reason, it refuses to work over wi-fi.
I tried I clear the data and the cache, but it just keeps giving me a network timeout error.
I'm guessing the app doesn't like my university dorm wifi, but there's really nothing I can do to adjust that.
Any ideas? -Thanks.

For some reason, my Gmail does not sync or push when I am on Wifi (all Roms I have tried so far)
Is this normal? Sync is fine when on 3g
go into settings>applications, find gmail and clear app data. that might help.
I didn't quite cover the issue...I can sync, but push doesn't seem to work right. Has been a problem on almost every version of gmail

is it doing the thing where you have the "3 unread" at the top of your app, but they don't show up as readable, or what?
are you rooted? backup, do a factory reset and set up gmail and see if the issue persists. if it does, then restore and try something else, if it fixes it, then just start over from scratch.
that's strange that gmail doesn't work right on wifi. it works fine for me. i'm thinking its either something with your profile, or your device specifically.
did you try clearing app data like i said in my last post?
This has been a problem with every rom I have tried - I am rooted. Never had this problem on my Droid. Push works fine on 3g, but does not work on WiFi unless I do a manual sync. Very strange. I have tried clearing the data, cache, and everything inbetween. I don't think it is a phone issue since all of my other data works fine on WiFi. Tried 2.2, 2.2.1, and even reverted back to 2.1, all have the problem. My wifi is set to never sleep, so that is not it. Also, I don't have any data settings turned off. Guess that Gmail just does not like WiFi
Been on WiFi all evening with no issues. The fact that it happens on multiple phones with multiple roms makes me think its something wrong with your gmail profile or something like that.
I'd say call VZW but they're gonna want you on an approved OS, so prolly wanna have that OTA froyo Rom handy before you call.

Looks like this is a problem for others as well...

I am going to see if the stock email program also suffers from this
Finally...fixed it
I wiped data and made a new gmail profile. Now my main profile is another gmail account. Then I added my normal gmail. All syncing properly. I spent about 2 hours combing through my gmail profiles on the computer and don't see anything. Oh well, working now

I've had a problem with pushing over institutional wifis, like guest wifis in hospitals and the like. Otherwise its been fine.

There is definately an issue with the institutional wifi...today I used wifi on the guest account at work and although my phone showed constant connection, I was able to see the phone get dropped continuously. It seems like these types of networks drop connections that are dormant for a short period of time

I'm living on WiFi only at my hotel since weds, its an institution access, so you have to refresh the connection about every 24 hours via a redirect to a confirmation page. No issues with any of my data, especially gmail. But good luck sending/receiving texts! There is literally no service in my room, and in the lobby I get 1X with no bars. It's brutal

At some point today I noticed every time I tried to go to google play it would tell me I had no connection. I would try to reconnect, reset my router, reboot the kindle, nothing worked.
Later I noticed only certain apps were not working. When I launched dolphin hd I was able to browse pages, but I am getting a lot of invalid certificate errors when I do so.
My kindle is rooted so I connected to it via ssh and ran tcpdump and I can see data going in and out fine via the browser. However when I try to to monitor port 443 for google play, gmail I see the https traffic, but both google play, and gmail are saying "no connection, retry"
I'm able to ping gmail, twitter, I can browse google. Any ideas what might be causing this?
Oh, also tried fired up twrp wiped my cm7 install and tried to load a old backup, same problems.
maybe blocked some ports on the router ?
I went all through the router settings at the start, even tried connecting to some open wifi thinking it had to be my router, and I have the same issue regardless.
i've had the same exact problems. idk what to do. it wont let me connect to the internet using any app except the browser and there are so many errors with certificates.
Hmm did you try clearing dalvic cache of reinstalling rom.also what rom are you using.

I started to have this weird problem with my nexus 4. It doesn't happen all the time, but more than a couple of times a day..
The problem is when it occurs, i cannot use the internet connection on any google app (Play store, chrome, books, hangouts,etc)
But my internet connection is working.. I am able to use the net on the apps like whatsapp, facebook, twitter, etc etc
Initially i thought it was just a glitch in the network, but it has started to get under my nerves lately..
Any suggestions ??
Same thing happened to me today I have already tried different connections and clearing the data for the services.
Have you tried any kind of debugging at all such as watching a logcat when you try to connect to any google services?
So I replaced my old reliable WRT54GL router running Tomato firmware with a new Asus RT-N66U router with RMerlin's modified stock firmware, everything is working fine... The only odd issue is my Nexus 4 on Beanstalk talks to it and every thing works, except the Facebook app, about 50% of the time it just its there saying "updating" all the time, toggle off WiFi and it connects to mobile data and happily updates, toggle back and it fails, but everything else on the phone works fine (G+. Tapatalk, Hangouts, Play Store, Spotify, Youtube, etc). To make it even stranger, sometimes it works with no issues.
Any ideas, I know this might not be the most appropriate to ask, but I don't know where else to start.

It's an app related issue. Try clear cache and data of Facebook app then restart the app. You will have set up your account again once cache and data are cleared.

I was a little skeptical when I read this, but did it anyway, and it seems to have corrected the problem... Thanks!!!
What's up guys. So, before flashing 4.5.7I, I had 4.1.7I and the internet was working on apps like facebook, email, but not on the browser. Now I have installed the 4.5.7I and the data connections works absolutely nowhere. It works on WiFi, but it doesn't on data. I have tried to turn on EDGE instead of 3G/4G, but that didn't help.
May be a dumb question, but have you specified APNs after flashing?
