My tablet was doing it earlier today, 4G signal but no data being received, was just trying to send, I had to put it onto 3G/2G preferred to get internet. Meanwhile my CAT phone that uses Telkom SIM for data worked fine on 4G next to it.

I wonder if only some SIMS were affected.

If there is a DNS error it would mean you're connected to the internet but can't go anywhere where you use a name as it can't resolve the request to an IP. Could be a temporary glitch. You could also try to force the DNS servers to be 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 (google open dns) and see if that helps

In my case nothing worked. Not restarting, nothing, had to force 3G use instead of 4G use.

Your issue is an apn issue.
