It is not possible to connect to the Vodafon router with a Windows device. Android devices in turn connect to the network without any problems.
The router is a Vodafone device. A Vodafone station for the cable connection. To fix the error I have already tried the following:
Restart the router
Router reset to factory settings
Firewall deactivated for testing
Network card drivers updated
Network profiles deleted on Windows device
TCP / IP reset
Unfortunately, everything remained unsuccessful. I also tried to find something in the event display of the router and on the Windows device, but also without success. Even when changing the radio channel, I had no success.
Why could it be that Android devices can establish a connection with the Vodafon Box but Windows devices can't? Could it be something that has to do with Windows in general?
The device is a device of a friend. I myself always use Fritzbox and never had such problems.
I tried it with 3 Windows devices. All of them were notebooks with a Windows 10 operating system.
The following device is the Vodafon Station:
This is only about the Wi-Fi connection. I haven't tried it yet via LAN due to a missing patch cable.
Should actually work
Reset router
Set PC network setting to automatic / DHCP
Connect PC with LAN cable
and then enter 192.168.0.1 in the browser.
I also think that the connection via LAN will work. I haven't tried it yet.
I made the settings on the router on an Android device.
I'm just surprised that Windows devices don't want them but Android devices do. Windows has to do something differently. I just couldn't think of anything.
