Hi,
This topic its related to this post which @mpous is already aware of it.
After some test, I’ve checked that if I setup my router WiFi connection with a channel higher than >11, the RaspberryPi 4 is not able to connect and establish a connection.
In the FAQ topics, there’s a section which describes this behaviour, but only for RaspberryPi model 3.
I wonder if anyone have suffered the same issues in order to modify the FAQ and it as well (if it’s confirmed that is a general issue in RPi4 as well…).
If I can perform any other test, please let me know it.
Thanks in advance!
Hi there,
It’s possible that this is related to the frequency limitations of the Raspberry Pi 4’s Wi-Fi radio. As you mentioned, there is an FAQ section that describes a similar issue with the Raspberry Pi 3. While the Raspberry Pi 4 has a different Wi-Fi radio, it’s possible that this limitation still applies.
To confirm whether this is a general issue with the Raspberry Pi 4, it may be helpful to perform some additional tests, such as:
- Try connecting to a Wi-Fi network with a channel lower than 12 and confirm that the Raspberry Pi 4 is able to connect.
- Test the Raspberry Pi 4 with a different Wi-Fi router to see if the issue persists.
- Check if any other devices in the same Wi-Fi network are experiencing similar connectivity issues.
If these tests confirm that the issue is specific to the Raspberry Pi 4 and higher Wi-Fi channels, then it may be appropriate to update the FAQ to include this information.
