Apple Music won't stream certain songs when wifi is connected

i recently renewed my apple music subscription and today I noticed that certain songs I had downloaded (not all, just some) wouldn't play. They show the error "a server with the specified hostname could not be found". I did some troubleshooting and figured out that this was only happening when I am connected to my home wifi network, and when I switch to LTE the songs play like they're supposed to. Again, not ALL of my downloaded songs are this way, and if it helps, the affected songs were all on the same playlist. I've deleted the playlist and I've tried deleting the songs and redownloading with no luck, they still show the hostname error unless I switch to LTE. I've already tried restarting my phone and the usual. Can anyone help?

iPhone 6, iOS 8.4.1

Hey there Spastic_iPRO,


I understand that you are running into some issues with your ability to access certain aspects of Apple Music from your home Wi-Fi. You may want to make sure that your home Wi-Fi router conforms to the following settings:
