Model: Archer VR600  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 0.2.0 0.9.1 v0074.0 Build 170504 Rel.68210n

Hello all,

I am using VR600 V2 in one of the rooms, I am facing a phenomena where I have no problem connecting to the routherthrough my mobile or tablet but it wont connect through my  HP laptop unless I reboot the router adn reboot the wifi adapter in the laptop, it apears the router is not providing an IP for the laptop to connect to,

I have tried this with 3 different HP laptops and same  negative result.

any idea what needs to be configured differently in the router or with the HP laptop? (HP Elitebook 850G5 / WIn10)

appreciate your support

Try to update your laptop wireless driver to the latest one and see if that helps.

Only HP laptops have this issue, other devices like phones, tablets, etc. are fine ? What are you wireless settings in the VR600 ? - channel width, channel number, security, encryption type, etc. - don't publish any personal passwords if you're posting screenshots.

So, if you reboot the router and the laptop wireless adapter, it can connect successfully ? What is the laptop wi-fi card model ?

 

I see that you have the initial version of the VR600 FW. Try to upgrade the FW to the latest one and see if that helps.
