I just installed Unifi at home about a month ago. All my PC and notebook able to connect to Wireless router. But i found out a problem, i could not use Internet when i use the IPTV. When i off the IPTV, my notebook able to use the internet. Which means that i could not use my notebook access to internet when i watch the IPTV program. Besides, the wireless connection is unstable. Sometime i unable to connect to the wireless.

I spent sometime to do my own troubleshooting to change the  router setting. Finally i found the solution.

I changed the wireless network global setting to solve this problem.

Below are the steps :-

• launch your web browser, type http://192.168.0.1 at your address bar

• Click login button to login
• After login, click on wireless setup on your left sidebar
• Click on Manual Wireless Connection Setup

• Un-tick Enable Auto Channel Selection
• On Wireless channel, select channel 11
• After that, click Save Setting and reboot your router

If you find others way to solve this problem, please share with me by leave a comment.
