A9000 unable to connect to 6GHz network
Hey everyone, Long time reader first time poster. I recently moved in to a new house 1200Sqft. I would prefer to be wired in but there's only one cable outlet in the home in the living room...
OS = Windows 11 25H2
PC = Custom built Intel 13900K Asus Maximus Z790 Hero
Distance = 12ft through a wall, also tried right next to the PC.
Other Peripherals = Keyboard, Mouse, MIC through an external USB Hub from Vantec ( 10 port Powered )
I've tried the A9000 in multiple USB ports including the hub,
Other Peripherals = Keyboard, Mouse, MIC through an external USB Hub from Vantec ( 10 port Powered )
Unshielded USB and HDMI cables (and some peripherals) can generate wifi interference. If you can power down the Vantec as a test (still connecting the mouse and keyboard to the PC), then maybe worth a try.
Does the Hero PC have WiFi 6e installed? If it does, then can it connect to the BE550 6 ghz network?
Are you manually entering the network name, or is the adapter detecting the network?
