I newly bought D-Link DIR-816 AC750 dual band adapter. The wifi 2.5ghz and 5ghz wifi signals are detected by mobile phones. But, i my windows 10 lenova laptop i am using netgear wifi adapter WNA...
Hi arunkarkki,
1. Does the adapter detects other wireless network?
2. The adapter is only capable of detecting 2.4Ghz and not 5Ghz.
In addition to my reply finaly after seeing so many issues in windows forum i did the following things to resolve the issue.
issue logs and error while run the network troubleshooting : Association status: Fail 0x00038002 Association reason code: 0x00000002
Method 1:
Steps worked for me: Ref: Broken/slow wifi - PC Build 14316 on Windows 10 Technical Preview
1. Press Windows Key + R Key.
2. Then type “devmgmt.msc” without the quotes and hit on Enter Key.
3. Expand Network Adapter.
4. Right click on the wireless driver and click on Uninstall.
5. Restart your Computer and it will install default wireless drivers.
Method 2: Ref: Windows 7 can't find my D-Link wireless network
One magic fix: Connected by cable, went to the D-Link router homepage(which is router configuration page > wireless tab), changed the channel from "Auto" to "8".
I don't know the root cause of the issue. Whether with windows/netgear/D-Link router side. If possible you can give me some clarification on the issue root cause and the right solution.
Hi arunkarkki.
Since the issue happens on both adapter, most likely the issue is with Windows.
