R7000: Had to change wireless network to one designated NETGEAR35-5G
When I originally set up my R7000 router i set it to the NETGEAR35 network, but noticed I had other channels/networks listed that included one labeled NETGEAR35-5G. About a week ago I started having problems with the NETGEAR35 network on all connected devices. I then switched to the NETGEAR35-5G network and things seem to be OK. I do have a problem now with connecting my echo dot which does not recognize the NETGEAR35-5G network. Has anyone come up against this issue and how did you get around it to connect the echo device?
Re: R7000: Had to change wireless network to one designated NETGEAR35-5G
The regular NETGEAR35 network uses 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi. You may simply have too many neighbors occupied the limited radio spectrum at 2.4 GHz.
Try changing the channel used by the regular NETGEAR35 network. Better yet, run a Wi-Fi analyzer app that will show you what channels are being used around you. You can find Wi-Fi analyzers for iOS, Android, Windows and MacOS.
