    Hi B_R,

     

    1. What is the firmware version of the router?

    2. Other than your smart TV, are your other wireless devices (smartphones, tablets, other wireless computers) able to detect the wireless signal?

    3. Can your laptop detect other WiFi networks in the area?

    4. Have you tried changing the wireless channel (for either the 2.4GHz or 5GHz)?

     

    Regards,
