Mi Wi-Fi Router 3C
Frequently
Asked Questions
What shall I do if the network is unstable and/or has a relatively slow speed of downloading?
Try the following steps:-
1. Place the router at an appropriate height and position to ensure that the signal covers a
wide enough area. Also, place the router far away from electronic
devices like induction
cookers, microwaves, refrigerators, Bluetooth devices etc. to eliminate signal interference.
2. If it has been a long time since the last update of firmware, please update it first.
3. Try to change the channel manually, in 2.4G WiFi you can try 1, 6, 11, 13 channels.
4. Try using the WiFi Boost feature in the Mi WiFi app.
5. Try to update wireless network card driver on your PC/Laptop.
6. If QoS is being used, please check whether you have mistakenly set up a relatively lower
speed limit for the device.
7. If you suspect that there are problems about obtaining DNS automatically, you can go to
website configuration and change the DNS to Google’s DNS: 8.8.8.8.
8. If phones have access to Internet but computers don’t,
please execute LSP restoration,
and conduct a network check and browser hijack detection repair.
9. If
it is dial-up Internet access, please restart the router. If
you are in a complex office
network, you can ask the operator if the router has been limited or confined.
Mi Router 3c (2.4G band) supports download speeds of up to 300M, but why am I receiving
lower speeds at my end?
300M is the highest theoretical speed for 802.11n mode, but it needs cl ient side support. As
an example, the WiFi needs to be working under the 40 MHz bandwidth to reach 300 M
speed,
but if this band is crowded, it shifts back to the 20MHz band.
This reduces the
connection speeds. Also according to changes in signal strength, the negotiation speed of
both the client and the router varies.
