Title: new Apollo miner keeps disconnecting from WIFI
Post by: floridaman86 on August 08, 2022, 07:26:06 PM
howdy!
I bought a new Futurebit Apollo miner, and set it up this past week. Seems to be working good, except once every 24-26 hours or so, it disconnects from my WIFI, and I have to manually reconnect it (it won't automatically reconnect like other devices in my house).
Any thoughts on how to fix this?

I guess it's due to a weak signal or there are many people connected on the same Wifi, most of the wifi modem(If it was from an internet provider) only allows 3 devices.

So if you don't want to keep disconnected then a direct connection through an Ethernet cable is the best. Or maybe buying a router can improve your wifi connection in your house.
