Troubleshooting
Q: Why am I not getting a signal?
A: (1) Check if the nearby router's WiFi function works properly when connected directly to the cell phone. (2) Try reducing the distance between the USB WiFi adapter and the router, and avoid obstacles such as thick walls and metal.
Q: I have successfully established a connection, but the internet speed is slow. Is there a way to improve it?
A: (1) Connect the WiFi adapter to the USB 3.0 port of your computer. (2) Try using the adapter in an area with a stronger signal. (3) If you are originally connected to a 2.4GHz wireless network, please switch the router from 2.4GHz to 5GHz and try again.
Q: The internet disconnects when the computer wakes up after a period of inactivity.
A: To avoid any delay in reconnecting to the router after inactivity, we suggest you turn off the power-saving mode of the computer, otherwise it will take about a minute to reconnect to the router when the computer awakens after inactivity, giving the impression that the network is directly disconnected.
Q: Connected, but no 5G signal. How to adjust?
A: (1) Ensure that your router supports 5G. (2) Turn off the "Combine 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz WiFi Network" setting in the WiFi and then you can manually choose 2.4G or 5G. (3) 2.4GHz wireless network is more penetrating and has a longer connection distance, but the network speed is slower. 5GHz is less penetrating and has a shorter connection distance, but the network speed is faster. So try to keep the devices connected to the network as close to the router as possible.
Q: I can detect the WiFi signal, but can't connect, what should I do?
A: (1) Please ensure that you have entered the correct password. (2) Check if you have set the binding of your Mac address and the router. If yes, you need to set the binding of Mac address and WiFi adapter. (3) Reboot the optical modem and router, and try to keep the devices that need to be connected to the network as close to the router as possible. (4) Check if the driver is correct, uninstall the driver and reinstall it.
