Pandigital WiFi Problem



Ok, so I bought a Pandigital Novel 7" e-reader with android OS. I will be writing a review about it soon, but I am making this post now because I had a problem with wifi disconnecting on this.

So you have a Pandigital tablet and your WiFi disconnects/drops and doesn't reconnect unless you do it manually? Well here is how I fixed it.

Log into your wireless router from your computer(by typing 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0. 1 in your web browser, google your model router for management IP and username and password.), once you've logged into your router go to "Wireless" settings, then under "Channel:" it will most likely have "Auto" selected. This is where you choose a channel number(I chose 8, you can experiment with different channels for speed and signal strength, different channels will offer different speeds and wifi range) Once you've chosen a channel click save.

Now that you've saved your channel, connect to WiFi using your Pandigital e-reader and it should no longer disconnect, and if it does it will Auto reconnect very quickly. No more wifi dropping on my Pandigital tablet.

Enjoy and leave a comment if this helped!
