I have numerous devices and access to numerous networks and think I have isolated my frustrations with home internet to the following situation.
"I cannot connect wirelessly to the Pace Plc 4111N-030 device from my Lenovo Yoga running (recently upgraded) Windows 10. The wlan adapter shows as "Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260"
This is quite frustrating. I can connect to any other wi-fi network that I've encountered and have resorted to using my cell phone hotspot.
What have I done to troubleshoot?
1. tested multiple devices. This is the only one that has issues with the Pace
2. tested mutliple networks. This laptop works fine everywhere else.
3. swapped out the PACE for the ZTE that I used originally. Unfortunately, that device has weaker wi-fi so some areas of my home lose wifi if I use that. The laptop will work fine with that DSL router/modem, however.
4. Tried disableing various wifi modes (a/b/g, etc) to see if I could simplify the connection options. That did not help.
5. Changed encryption settings from wpa2-psk to wpa-psk(tkip/aes) and wep-shared. That did not help.
6. I have (using the old modem) checked the Lenovo sight and there are no newer drivers.
7. I have deleted the wireless network device from my laptop and let windows rediscover it. For a brief moment I believe I was connected but when I tested it again today there was no improvement in the situation.
Basically, I have very expensive paperweight and would deeply appreciate any insight anyone might have.
Sonic, is there anything you can do? (different modem?)
