Model: Archer T3U

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

Hello.

I just bought your Archer T3U AC1300 Dual Band Wi-Fi adapter and I tried to share hotspot from my phone. It works only with 2.4 Ghz network speed but when I try to change it to 5 Ghz, which I will use it for playing games, suddenly does not recognize hotspot from my phone anymore.

Phone that I use is Iphone 13 Mini. IOS 18 and your product was bought in Europe.

What should be the solution in this case?

Thank you in advance.

Best Regards

Rok

Hi,

The "EU" version of the Archer T3U (as well as most other USB Wi-Fi adapters from TP-Link designed for the EU region) does not support the 5 GHz channel the iPhone uses to broadcast its Wi-Fi hotspot. There are already many threads in this forum about this.
