Trying to connect with a smartphone, it detects the network but says 'can't connect'. On one occasion I was able to connect but then the PC connection (via ethernet cable) dropped, so it appears to be one or the other.


I was previously able to connect with another, older phone.


Any advice? Do I need to replace the router, and if so any tips on what to get? Should I get 'dual band'?

Try refreshing your router, small button somewhere on the unit will reset it. Are you able to connect at another wi-fi point? Have you set up a secure home network? have you allowed this phone onto your network? Dual band will give you connection on 2.4Ghz and 5.00Ghz. most devices run on 2.4 If you go for a dual band make sure it can broadcast/receive on both simultaneously. If your devices allow for 5.0 connection enable that as it will have a wider bandwidth allowing faster transfer speeds. Hope this helps!?! depending on your router, type in the gateway ip address and try reconfiguring the settings there might be updates to the firmware on your machine check with the manufacturers website.

    • LL has always reminded me of Crouch End. Went to Crouch End a while ago and three huge supermarkets now dominate it. Soulless. 
    • I completely agree.   Pride used to be in Brixton and Brockwell Park before it outgrew it and moved to Finsbury Park.  Quite reasonable to accept limitations and respond properly  
    • Yes, but most posting on here against the festival have not said they hate all festivals, it is about location, scale and footprint, duration of the event, including build and dismantling, and the level of impact on wildlife and residents living close by.    Last year I said on here that I would, reluctantly, accept the three day event, provided it was no more than that and the footprint was not extended to include more of the park. Now it is reasonably clear there is an intention to scale up I think a new, more suitable location must be found. 
    • Have to admit, I did have to check myself - I've been to many festivals and it seems a bit contradictory to challenge one, but our local park is not the place for a festival of this size. It just needs to either scale down to the environment (smaller footprint, less damage) or find a better location. There is a VAST difference between festivals out in the countryside and the same in an urban park.
