Dell Latitude 7480 and Orbi RBK853
My wife is now working at home, and her Dell Latitude 7480 isn't able to see my Orbi RBK853's networks. Has anyone seen this before, and is there any solution? -- Thanks, Verne
Ah...sounds like out of date stuff on the laptop then.
Well glad disabling if AX helped.
One thing to try, does her LT have a LAN port? If it does you could have her connect it via wired LAN then you could re-enable AX mode.
Unfortunately her work area is quite a distance from the satellite, and the ethernet cable would have to cross a wood floor where there is public traffic.
Once she returns to the office, her IT guys can safely update her drivers - or get her a new laptop - I'm aquiring a define dislike for that laptop.
We brought her work monitor home, and it's 1080p - in order to get it working, I had to return to her office and get this wierd Dell docking box which accepted the plug coming out of the video cable from the monitor, and had two HDMI ports, a bunch of USB ports, and a female USB 3 port.
I tried the HDMI cables and they didn't work, but when I plugged in a USB 3 cable she suddenly had video.
Zounds ... who would think that USB 3 had sufficient bandwidth for both a USB hub and a 1080p video signal - and who would think of running video over USB when you have HDMI ports?
Even though USB 3.0 is fast. Very fast for data xfer between drives, it still can't really hold a candle to DVI or HDMI for video.
