Wifi out range, but isn't.

[hogsman]

My Thunderbolt connects to every wifi just great, except for this one in particular. My Thunderbolt just says it is out of range. It's not out of range, though.

I recently replaced my T-bolt with a CLNR, and the CLNR says the same thing.

Other androids, laptops, iPhones, etc can connect just fine.

There are not a whole lot of choices to get wrong when adding a wifi network. I can't explain why I can set it up on any device except a Thunderbolt.

Remind me what settings I need to look for on the router, or if there is a specific problem with the T-bolt?


Thanks!

P.S.

Don't kill me if this has been asked before. I tried searching for this particular problem, but couldn't find it.

I've never had a problem with it, but make sure that any manufacturer-specific speed enhancements are turned off - some devices have issues with that sort of thing.

I had a ThinkPad that would not connect for love or money to my home router, but as soon as I turned off AfterBurner on the router it worked great.

Other than that, my Thunderbolt has connected to a wide variety of networks with nary a problem. I've never actually run into a problem with any vendor-specific nonstandard performance boosters, but it's possible.
