A7000 Can't Connect WiFi
Hello all, I am currently having trouble connecting to a new router I installed. I had the stock Fios Gateway Router that came with my Fios internet and was successfully using the A7000 WiFi adap...
Also would like to add that I'm using Windows 10, and with the A7000 I am able to connect to my phones hotspot, it is specifically my routers WiFi it cannot connect to.

Kind of suggests that it is the router's wifi that is the issue.
Not knowing what that is, it is anybody's guess.
- Thank for your reply. Yeah im not sure what to think, every device in my home can connect to the new router except for the A7000 adapter and my work laptop. The new router is the g3100 from Verizon (WiFi 6) it is supposed to be backwards compatible and is on all other devices with the exception of my A7000 and work laptop.
What does Windows network troubleshooter say?
- I ran it last night but had to revert back to my older router today for work. I cant remember exactly what it said except that its recommendations were steps i had already taken such as resetting the router. One step i didnt take due to distance was a wired connection between PC and router.
