Troubleshooting and Tips - Continued
3. The “Status” shows “Connected” and “Internet Access” shows “No”
In some cases, if you are at a public WiFi such as an RV Park, Hotel, Hospital, coffee shop,
etc. that requires a Username & password, or to accept the User’s Terms and Agreement,
open your browser and follow their instructions.
• Some devices such as smartphones, tablets, printers, etc. offer WPS
as an alternate form of WiFi connection which does not require a password.
To connect devices to the CC Vector without entering a password, press
the “WPS” button when prompted by your device to connect.
Check the WPS instructions for your computer or WiFi device.
• For best performance we recommend 5 to 15 feet of separation between the CC Vector
and the USB Antenna.
• In some cases you may receive faster WiFi by rotating the USB Antenna horizontally, making
sure to aim the broad side towards the distant WiFi network.
• It is normal to receive some speed reduction when repeating a WiFi network. (Because it
has to deliver the signal twice).
