Model: Archer T4U  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 1030.22.202.2018

Hi all, when I bought this wifi adapter I didn't know that it was the US version. I live in a country where they allow channels 1-13 but in the US it is only 1-11 so when I tried to use it, it did not detect my wifi since it is on channel 13. So it took a while for me to figure out that I needed to change the channel to below 12. I was just wondering if I could use the EU version of the driver on this adapter, will it detect channel 12 and 13? or its a hardware thing. It's not really a big deal but it would be nice to be able to use those channels.

You can download the EU version of the driver for use, this will not conflict.

 

Best Regards!

Well, I tried it with EU drivers and it looks like it doesn't detect channels 12 and 13.

 

Thanks for the confirmation tho.

Could you please send me the screenshot of the router setting?

How did you confirm the channel of the wireless? Did you use any phone app to detect it?(If so, you can send me the screenshot about your Wi-Fi too).

 

Best Regards!

Of course, 

Yes I did use an app to detect it.

 

 

Heres the wifi list when it is set to channel 12.
