Windows 10 freezing at log in

Hello Frank,

A failed update or one-time startup process can sometimes cause stopping, freezing, or reboot-loop issues during the login process. To isolate the issue, we suggest that you answer the following questions:

• Do you have a USB device attached? If yes, can you remove the device and log in again.
  
• Have you tried turning off the WiFi feature in your laptop before logging in?
  
• How about running a Startup Repair in your Windows 10 laptop? (Boot to Advanced Startup Options>Click on Troubleshoot> Click on Advanced options> Click on Startup Repair)
• Aside from the above steps, what other troubleshooting steps have you done so far?
  

Looking forward to your response.

 

Laptop wifi slow, very fast at work, other devices are fast at home

Are you connected to a 2.4 GHz network at home? Bluetooth devices and some USB 3.0 devices plugged into a laptop's USB 3.0 port will create interference with your wifi. My bluetooth keyboard/mouse will halve my wifi speed. Add a usb 3.0 external hard drive and sometimes my wifi disconnects during peak transfer.

What WiFi security protocols are being used at home vs at work?

 

I need help setting up a Hotspot with Alfa R36A for home WiFi/Internet


This may not be the place to ask - but I'll try anyways. I have a motorhome parked at my house (my storage location). I'm trying to setup a Wifi Hotspot for my motorhome.

I just bought the Alfa R36A adapter and the Alfa AWUS036NH (antenna/receiver). This is setup inside the motorhome with the antenna/receiver suction-cupped to the window pointing toward my house. Alfa also sells this as a package with a different antenna called the "Camp Pro 2". https://store.rokland.com/collection...-access-points

I want to be able to connect to my home's the Internet from inside the motorhome (I have a Laptop and Smart TV/BD player in the motorhome that has Netflix and other streaming apps built in).

Inside my home I have AT&T DSL with their router/WiFi device. I get a weak Wifi signal inside the motorhome (and I can connect to the Internet with the Laptop's Wifi by connecting to the AT&T Wifi network and logging on with my AT&T SSID and password. Bu this signal is weak.

So I bought the Alfa system to pickup the weak AT&T Wifi signal and to pick up the free WiFi at the campgrounds I visit.

The problem I have is that the Alfa sees the AT&T Wifi and connects to it, but I can't get the Internet to connect. I can only connect to the devices on the Alfa network (by Wifi and ethernet).

When I setup the Alfa I choose "set as Hotspot" then the Alfa scans and lists the networks it sees. I select my ATT network and then enter the AT&T password in the setup. The Alfa has its own SSID and password. The Alfa uses 192.168.36.1 for the router and then assigns IP addresses in the 192.168.36.xx range. When I log onto the Alfa network it connects and all my local devices (TV) which get a 192.168.36.xx address. So those devices work fine over the Alfa network, but the Internet will not connect.

I asking if anyone has any experience with the Alfa or any suggestions to try. I plan to call tech support but they are closed when I get home from work and on weekends so it's not easy to get to them (I may just need to take a day off). It's also possible the Alfa device I just bought is defective.

I guess the way the Hotspot works, is that when I log onto the "Alfa network", the Alfa then automatically connects to the AT&T network (via WiF) and sends the AT&T password back to ATT system (?) to allow the Alfa network to connect to the Internet through the AT&T DSL/router/WiFi. I don't understand this part. Maybe the Alfa is not transmitting the password back to the ATT system.
