Windows 10: WiFi Device connect to Router WiFi Signal.

How do I get a Router to find a WiFi Adapter so that the WiFi adapter can pick up the Router WiFi signal ?

The WiFi Router is useless as it needs to inherit a WiFi signal for it to work. I had Windows find the device once, but then I couldn't get it to find it again ?

best wifi device??

Definately a PCI wifi card with multiple antenna's is going to get a better signal than a USB key. Some USB key adapters have a 'dock' with a USB extension wire that can help act like a better antenna, but the PCI's will work better.

Have you thought of running the signal through your house's 120 wall outlet? That would be a broadband connection vs a wifi connection.

Also, what wifi router do you have?

 

Wifi not stable or connecting to devices

Hi all,

Sorry, a newbie here looking for some advice on a long-standing WiFi issue that I need to finally tackle! This looks a good, busy forum, so hoping this is the place to resolve things!

We have Sky Broadband and when using wired connections from the router, everything is fine. Good speeds, next to no downtime, no problems. However, the WiFi has never been good.

While the laptop may connect occasionally, newer devices such as tablets, iphones, kindle, etc just do not. As the router was very old, I upgraded last month to the latest Sky Broadband Hub thinking this would do the trick.

This has not helped at all, and on the few occasions we get the kindle to connect, the signal is poor and it takes hours (literally) to download a single app.

I have tried using different channels (no neighboring channels as at the back of a cul-de-sac with elderly neighbors!) and also using each of the security settings types. When we had the old router (netgear), turning all security off would sometimes do the trick, but that doesn't even work with the new Hub.

To further confuse me, a few months back I extended the network to the shed by running an ethernet cable from the main router to another router I bought off ebay. This all works perfectly, including outstanding wifi when in the garden from this router.

Have I just been unlucky with two dodgy routers in the house, or is there a more technical explanation? Any help much appreciated!

Cheers

 

4G Pocket Wifi or 4G Router


Hi,
I'm using a Huawei E5372 4G mobile WiFi.
I'm also in an area with a good 4G signal.
I use this device to connect 4 computers, a Windows phone, and an iPod to the internet, and it works really well.

All the computers connect via WiFi, and are networked to each other.
It is possible to connect via USB, but I don't, as the WiFi is much handier.

The WiFi signal is not as strong as the signal from a WiFi router. If you are in a large building, with thick brick walls, you may be better off with the router option.

Hope this helps,

Dave.
