TD-W8961ND trying to connect 6 PCs but only 4 conneting

2012-11-13 13:41:14

Region : Others

Model : TD-W8961ND

Hardware Version : V2

Firmware Version : 2.0.0 Build 120427 Rel.09135

ISP : True

Hi,

I just bought the wireless router as stated in the subject and I cant get 2 of our PC’s to connect wirelessly for some reason. 4 other PC's are fine

All machines running windows 7, but when the authentication type on WPA2-PSK the 2 computers ask for a password which we put in but keeps saying its wrong, but infact its right.

I can connect them on WPA-PSK, but then all the computers drop out after 30 seconds.

What could be causing these 2 computers to not connect properly?

Oh, I have my old router from the ISP which is crap, but all 6 PC's were connected to it fine, just a little slow which is why I upgraded to this router.

Thought that info would help :)

You can have a try to change the wireless channel to 6 or 11 in the web-interface of the TD-W8961ND. And you can also have a try to use WEP encryption.
