Why can my laptop connect to Wi-Fi signals that my iphone can't?
So i have a iphone five and i have free access to bt openzone and o2 Wi-Fi, only problem being that i can't pick up the Wi-Fi signal on my iphone to connect to them.
however my old dell inspiron | 1000 can pick up these Wi-Fi signals from the same house? What the hell! I want to use this Wi-Fi as its free, but my phone but it won't pick it up but my laptop can! Any ideas on how i can fix this?
Don't worry, there's a way! I'm not sure how to do it but you can use your computer as a range extender, Google more to find out.
The Wi-Fi antenna in a laptop is very long. It's a wire that literally runs 360 degrees around the laptop. Wi-Fi ranges on laptops reach much, much further than desktop or cell phones.
- One laptop can connect to our home Wi-Fi network but no other devices can connect? We recently set up a wireless internet connection in our house. One laptop can connect to it (the one I'm currently on) but no other devices can connect to it. It says our "Network Security Key" is mismatched. I have tried typing in all the different codes on both the router and modem on both our second laptop and an iPhone 5. How can I fix this?
- My Wi-Fi won't connect on my laptop but will connect to my other devices (an iPhone and iPad)? I have a MacBook Air. Sometimes it does connect but other times it just won't. It takes ages connecting and then in the end comes up with the exclamation mark or is just blank. Is this a problem with my laptop? I've tried researching the problem but have found nothing.
- Is it possible that a 3G 2100Mhz repeater is also able to amplify LTE signals in the same frequency? To all engineers out there, is it possible for repeaters rated for 2100mHz 3G is also able to amplify LTE signals under the same frequency? My iPhone cycles through LTE and 3G when the repeater is on, while it switches to "No Service" when the repeater is unplugged.
