    Hi Abdul_3ziz

     

    Welcome to NETGEAR Community! 

     

    Does your Windows 10 computer detect other WiFi network? How far or close are you from the MR1100 when you scan for WiFi network? 

    What about other Wireless devices? Can it detect MR1100 WiFi network?

        Hi Abdul_3ziz

         

        Thank you for responding. 

         

        Since other wireless devices (Smart devices) detect the MR1100 WiFi network then we can say that it broadcast signal. 

         

        Please try to manually add the network to your Windows 10 computer.
