Hi all,
I'm having a strange problem - I bought a Pix-Link LV-UE02 USB-powered WiFi extender/repeater to use with some drones. I plugged it into a USB power supply and the LED came on and blinked in the appropriate pattern. According to the manual and several web sites and YouTube videos it's supposed to create a WiFi network named 'WiFi-Repeater' that you connect to to configure the device, but I checked using several different Android phones, Windows computers, tablets and pretty much everything I own with WiFi but I couldn't see a network with that name, so I assumed I had a bad device. Then I turned on WiFi on my Kobo Clara HD and lo and behold, it showed a network called 'WiFi-Repeater'. I'm located in the US so I thought it might have something to do with the Pix-Link using WiFi channels 12-14 but I can't be sure. Is there anything else that could cause selective visibility of a WiFi network?
Thanks
John
