Model: TD-W8961N  
Hardware Version: V5
Firmware Version:

I can connect my laptop to the router but not a phone since few days.

 

I am facing a problem since a week, when I turn a wi-fi on on my android device HTC Wildfire S and scan for wifi, phone doesn't show up my router in scanned list, by the way it shows other wi-fis in the list but not my one.

 

I guess there could be some problem in my router. How can I solve this?

You can verify the channel used by the wifi networks detected by your android phone, then you can log into the web UI of the TD-W8961N to change the wireless channel and channel width to give it a go.

 

Besides, please ensure that the firmware is up to date. 

 

Good day.
