I don't believe this to be a hardware related issue. Its quite possible that that the device is blocked and stuck in that state with no clear method to unblock it. So I was able to fix this issue by doing two things. (reset network settings on mobile device and network settings on WiFi network).
1: Reset network settings on my iPhone Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings
2: Reset my router/modem combination to factor settings and then reprogram/reconfigure to my old settings.
