My 5.0GHz network is not showing up

TeamFlashRouters · May 2, 2019 ·

Verify the device supports 5GHz

5.0GHz networks are not compatible with all devices so first make sure that you device’s wireless adapter supports 5GHz wireless frequencies.

If you are not sure, find out if your device support 5 GHz via Google search or by looking in the wireless hardware details in the device’s network settings. If you see Wireless a/b/g/n support then you have a compatible device. If you are missing the Wireless a then this means there is no 5 GHz support.

Enter the recommended wireless settings

Our team has tested the wireless functionality for each FlashRouter that we offer and shared our recommended wireless settings in our Wifi Setup area. Replicate the settings for your FlashRouter model found on that page.

Lower the wireless channel

Some devices do support 5.0GHz connections but not the higher channels that DD-WRT firmware offers.

Navigate to Wireless > Basic Settings

Lower the wireless channel setting for the 5.0GHz band that is not showing. Based on our tests the most broadly compatible channels are 36, 48 and 161.

CLICK APPLY SETTINGS

Refresh your device's network adapter

The easiest way to accomplish this is by rebooting your device as the settings to reset your adapter may vary on all types of internet connected devices.

Review wireless Status

Navigate to Status > Wireless

The readouts on this page can help tell if there are errors with the FlashRouter’s wireless. View our article on how to read the Wireless Status page for more information.

My 2.4GHz network is not showing up

TeamFlashRouters · May 2, 2019 ·

If you ever have an issue with WiFi, you can always wire directly into the FlashRouter to verify and/or update your current WiFi settings.

Enter the recommended wireless settings

Our team has tested the wireless functionality for each FlashRouter that we offer and shared our recommended wireless settings in our Wifi Setup area. Replicate the settings for your FlashRouter model found on that page if the 2.4GHz is not showing.

Change the wireless channel

Navigate to Wireless > Basic Settings

Change the wireless channel setting for the 2.4GHz band that is not appearing. The most broadly compatible channels are 6 and 11.

CLICK APPLY SETTINGS

Refresh your device's network adapter

In rare instances the wireless adapter for your device may stop picking up WiFi networks and must be reset. This will be different for each device, that is why the best way to refresh your wireless adapter is to simply reboot any device in question and see if the adapter now picks up your WiFi networks.

Review wireless Status

Navigate to Status > Wireless

The readouts on this page can help tell if there are errors with the FlashRouter’s wireless. View our article on how to read the Wireless Status page for more information.

Set a Static IP for your connected devices on Roqos

TeamFlashRouters · Dec 21, 2021 ·

By assigning specific Static IP addresses to your devices you can better manage your network and make sure they connect with the same Local IP Address each time they connect to your Roqos.

Login to Roqos Core UI web app in a browser on any computer or smart device.

1. Click the navigation menu and select Basic Settings > LAN Settings.

Roqos Basic Settings - LAN settings

2. Click Static IP Assignments.

Roqos LAN settings - Static IP Assignments

3. Click Add Assignment.

Roqos LAN settings - Add Assignment

4. Toggle the device hat you want to set a Static IP for and then enter 192.168.23.x with x being any number between 2 and 254. Click Save.

Now, every time the device connects to the Roqos network it will be assigned the same Static IP address on the Local network.

Why did my WiFi SSID change to ‘dd-wrt’?

Dave · May 3, 2019 ·

If you are seeing ‘dd-wrt’ in your available wireless networks instead of your regular FlashRouter24 and FlashRouter50 wireless network names (SSID) this means the router has been reset to default DD-WRT firmware settings.

Follow our instructions for Resetting and Reconfiguring your FlashRouter to get setup again.

Do not confuse your SSID being replaced by ‘dd-wrt’ with ‘dd-wrt vap’ appearing alongside your regular wireless network names.

If you are seeing ‘dd-wrt vap’ it likely means you did not rename your network when attempting to setup a guest network.

Why is my WiFi signal weak?

Dave · Apr 29, 2019 ·

If you find that wireless signal strength is weak while connected to the FlashRouter’s network we recommend that you do the following:

  1. Make sure that you have the external antennas fully connected to the FlashRouter.
  2. “Forget” the wireless network on the device and then rejoin with a fresh connection. This will be different for each device but can be effective.
  3. Make sure you are within an appropriate range for the network you are using. Keep in mind that a 2.4GHz network will always have better range than 5GHz networks. Devices further away from the router should use the 2.4GHz network.
  4. Interference from your wireless environment can also cause this issue. On the Wireless > Basic Settings adjust the Wireless Channel for the network you are experiencing the issue for. Channel interference is a likely cause for weak signal strength.

What do the lights on my Roqos Core mean?

TeamFlashRouters · Mar 3, 2022 ·

  1. White (looks blueish white on Teal colored Roqos Cores): System startup
  2. Solid Red: System is up, but there is no internet connection. Roqos Core cannot detect a network link either.
  3. Flashing Red: System is up and there is an ethernet cable connected to Internet port, however Roqos Core is unable to reach the internet. Usually happens with bad ethernet cable, or cable modem/ISP modem not giving IP address to Roqos Core due to ISP provisioning issues, or some other type of network setting blocking Roqos Core’s access to the internet. First thing to try in this scenario is to reboot the ISP router/modem upstream of Roqos Core.
  4. Flashing Blue: Roqos Core is up and connected to the internet, but it is not yet activated. Brand new Roqos Cores, or Roqos Cores that are factory reset will show this behavior when they are ready to be activated again.
  5. Blue (deep blue color, different from #1): Roqos Core is up and activated, everything is normal.

How to fix an Unidentified Network or Limited Connection.

Dave · May 2, 2019 ·

There are several common reasons that an Unidentified Network or Limited connection message may appear in your device’s network adapter.

  1. Wire the FlashRouter correctly for Internet access. Incorrect wiring is the most common cause of this issue. Make sure you are not wired into the FlashRouter WAN port for access, and make sure the FlashRouter is wired correctly to your main modem or router.

Why is the power light on my FlashRouter blinking?

Dave · May 2, 2019 ·

A slowly blinking power light means that the FlashRouter was somehow put into Rescue/Restore/Recovery Mode. This usually happens if the reset button was held down for too long.

This may also happen if you have incorrectly tried to update the firmware on your FlashRouter. The first thing to try is a simple reboot of the router to see if it exits restore mode.

If a reboot does not clear up the issue then try to reset and reconfigure your FlashRouter.

How do I change the DHCP range of my FlashRouter?

TeamFlashRouters · May 30, 2019 ·

Whenever a device joins the FlashRouter network via wired or WiFi connection the DHCP server on the router gives out a local IP address to each device so all these devices can interact on your local network.

Increase the DHCP range to allow more users to automatically be assigned an IP address or decrease the DHCP range to limit the users that are automatically assigned an IP address.

Navigate to Setup > Basic Setup

Change DHCP Range in FlashRouter DD-WRT Settings
  1. Under Network Address Server Settings (DHCP) change the Maximum DHCP Users to your preferred value.
  2. You can edit the Start IP Address to 2 and Maximum DHCP Users to 254 for the most available slots.
