Household has this router as secondary WiFi hotspot at home
Primary router is Netgear Orbi
Have a Lenovo E560 (circa late 2016/2017) notebook which connects to the Orbi Wifi without issue; however the E560 CANNOT detect the 5G CPE Pro 2 at all, even if I place the laptop right next to the router...
Have manually setup a connection with the CPE Pro 2 but still the laptop cannot see this router at all
Meanwhile my old smartphones can detect the CPE Pro 2 network without problem
What's the problem with this? Why the E560 cannot see the network from the 華為 router at all?
I checked the channels of the routers with Wifi Analyzer...
The original home Orbi runs on Channels 13 (for 2.4G) and 36 (for 5G)
While the 華為 runs on Channels 7 (2.4G) and 36 (5G)
Would this be the issue?
I have yet to check the noebook's Wifi adapter settings, but I'll do that soon
