Archer T3U does not connect to 5Ghz WLAN / Which channels are supported?

Model: Archer T3U  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Hi, 

I am using the T3U in Germany. Unfortunately my 5GHz WLANs are not shown in the list. All my other devices (laptops, phones, iPad, FireTV etc.) are working fine.

My 5Ghz WLAN is running on auto channel between 36 and 140. I do not want to pin my WLAN to a fixed channel.

 

It seems that the Archer T3U does not support all Channels. Is that correct? Does anybody know which channels are supported?

 

Thanks

Markus

@MarkusD  Good day, 

 

To answer your question, may I know do you use ( EU) version wireless adapter, and what is the hardware version of T3U?

@Solla-topee 

Hello,

I bought the stick from Amazon Germany. So I think it should be the EU version.

Hardware version should be 1 because the FCC ID has no version 2 or so at the end

Hi, if it cannot detect the 5G signal of the main router, please refer to this article to troubleshoot:

If the channel is not an issue, you may update the driver to be the latest:

Install the driver manually: https://www.tp-link.com/support/faq/920/.
