Need to reset modem every day

[Burko75]

Ok. Moved PC into lounge where gateway is. Tried wifi. No different. Still can’t see gateway.

Connected cat5. Perfect. Works no issue.

Removed drivers and reinstalled for wifi dongle. No different.

Tried WPS on gateway to connect dongle. Dongle cannot see gateway to connect.

I had a couple of power line adapters from Foxtel. Plugged them in and works fine.

Unless here is an easy obvious issue I am just going to run with power line adapters.

Aaaand. Returned pc to office. Tried power line adapters and not working. The wall plug must be on a different circuit in office compared to where gateways is.

As I’m in a rental I didn’t really want to install a wall plate and run cat5/6 to office but may have to.

You can run the cat 6 or internal WiFi card with antenna since you stated. Form the sounds of it the walls and distance are just to much for the dongle to handle.

Also note. I have laptop sitting right next to pc and it can see wifi fine.

I would suggest you look into other wise you may have to look into running cable.

Or ditch the dongle and get a WiFi card and install that.

You are plugging the power line directly into a wall socket correct?
