The problem arose with connecting laptop to the Wi-Fi network

#1 Post by megaherz33 »

Hi!
Installed MX-23.3. The problem arose with connecting the Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop to the Wi-Fi network. I enter the password correctly. 100%. There were no problems before. What could it be?

QSI please.
Also, can other devices connect to the router / internet?
HP 15; ryzen 3 5300U APU; 500 Gb SSD; 8GB ram
HP 17; ryzen 3 3200; 500 GB SSD; 12 GB ram
Idea Center 3; 12 gen i5; 256 GB ssd;

In Linux, newer isn't always better. The best solution is the one that works.

QSI, what is this? Not very experienced.

Connected PC and two phones today without problems.

We are going to need your computer’s complete profile before we can proceed, so you need to post the output from the QSI utility. The Quick System Info (QSI) utility is located in MX Tools and its output is automatically formatted for use here in the forum. Run the QSI utility, click “Copy for Forum” at the bottom and then just paste it here in your thread.

I edited your post to use code tags rather than the quote tags you used. This makes it easier to read and navigate here in the forum.
Your laptop has an old style b/g card which would use the 2.4 GHz band. Most modern cell phones use the 5 GHz band and since your phones can connect to your router, I think that it;s safe to assume that it is currently broadcasting in 5 GHz. Therefore, I think that you should access your router and try to set up a 2,4 GHz network. If this is not possible, you will need to acquire a 5 GHz capable USB WjFi dongle.

I have 2.4 GHz set. On all devices connected via Wi-Fi. I will reinstall it again.
