It would seem that it could be easier than connectingRouter to computer? It's just a couple of minutes. But sometimes the result can be completely unexpected, for example, the computer does not see the router, and it is impossible to enter the parameters of the router. What to do in this situation? Those who want to try to solve the problem on their own, then offer some simple tips. But first a few words about the possible causes of the failure.
As for the reasons, they can be enoughmany, from trivial incorrect connection to equipment malfunctions, including the router itself, and the corresponding ports on the computer (physical breakdowns or program failures of the device itself will not be considered in detail).
However, the main prerequisites for the fact that the computer does not see the WiFi router, depending on the situation, are the following:
Proceeding from the above, we will continue to consider each solution separately.
Let's start with the situation when the user is trying toconnect to the router to perform the initial setup via the cable directly. It seems that all cables are connected correctly, but there is still no connection. Well, does not see the computer router, even if you crack. What to do?
First of all, if you are absolutely sure that everythingthe cables are connected correctly, check if the address of the router is entered correctly in the web browser. In most cases, this is 192.168 with the last two digits 0.1 or 1.1 (other addresses may be used for some non-standard models).
The address for the entrance can be found on the special plate that is located on the back of the device. There is also a username and password that must be entered when entering the settings.
If everything is entered correctly, but the router is not visible,it is possible that the normal reboot of the router will help by pressing the On / Off or Power buttons for 10-15 seconds. However, it is best to disconnect the router completely from the mains, having sustained the same interval. If the computer does not see the router after that, you can try resetting the router settings to the factory settings. To do this, there is a small hole in the bottom of the case, in which is located a barely noticeable reset button Reset.
In the event that the previous actions of the effect did not have any effect, you should check the correctness of the direct connection.
Try to insert the network cable into another oneconnector on the router or perform similar actions on the network card of the computer. If this does not work, perhaps the reason is the damage to the cable itself. In this case, simply replace it and try again to enter the settings.
Также ситуация, когда компьютер не видит wi-fi-router, can be connected with the breakdown of the ports themselves. As already mentioned, use another port or "ring" the one to which you are connected.
However, the reason can also be in the networkadapter. In this case, you should make sure that all necessary drivers are installed in the system (and correctly). If the device in the corresponding manager is marked with a yellow icon with an exclamation point, the drivers need to be reinstalled. Also, as an option, you can use a complete removal of the device with a subsequent reboot of the system, when the driver will be installed automatically. In the case of non-standard hardware, you must use the original disks or specify the location of the driver installation file on the hard disk manually.
For more informationit is necessary to diagnose the connection. It is executed from the adapter settings section, which is located in the network connections menu, located in the standard "Control Panel". If a problem is found, the system will inform you that they have been fixed.
Finally, the reason that the computer does not see the router when using a wireless connection can be set in the network hiding settings.
In this situation, you need to connect tothe router directly through the cable, enter the wireless settings, and uncheck the SSID broadcast enablement line (for TP-Link models). In other devices, this may be the point of hiding the name of the network, setting just hiding the network (SSID) or something else like that. After that, the device should preferably be rebooted in the manner described above. In addition, it would be nice to make and restart the main computer system (as they say, you never know what).
В большинстве случаев приведенные методы помогают fix the connection situation. If none of these solutions helped, in order not to replace the equipment, it will be necessary to re-flash the device. It’s quite problematic to do it yourself at home, so it’s best to contact a service center. If such actions do not give any results, it will be necessary to make a complete diagnostics of the router not the subject of faults, but to replace the device when they are detected.
Но, как показывает практика, чаще всего There are incorrect input of addresses and parameters when entering settings, cable and port failures, lack of network card drivers and wireless modules, as well as set network hiding parameters. So at least one of the proposed methods, but it will help.
