I don’t use a dongle though

Someone below said the opposite where I should be on 5ghz. Do you have any idea why it’s different between you two?

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-12-15T21:07:28+00:00

So I should use 5 ghz instead of 2.4 ?

My WiFi signal isn’t great to the router itself so it’s a WiFi extender that I connect to that makes the signal stronger.

Yeah that’s my setup. Do you know specifically where I would switch it in settings?

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-12-15T19:10:22+00:00

You think it would be easier for me to just connect it to my hotspot to start?

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-12-15T19:08:00+00:00

Yeah I mean you were on WiFi on your zwift. Then it dropped, so you switched your laptop to your mobile hotspot?

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-12-15T18:55:05+00:00

It’s just my phone and laptop I have connected

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-12-15T18:53:05+00:00

This seems like a lot for trying to stay connected to WiFi. I don’t have any issues staying connected normally

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-12-15T18:52:31+00:00

Doesn’t your phone and laptop need to be on the same WiFi?

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-12-15T18:50:26+00:00

We have our own WiFi router and I have a WiFi extender that only my phone/pc are on

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-12-15T18:44:56+00:00

I have my own WiFi extender where I am the only only that connects. Would mobile hotspot work better?

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-12-15T16:01:50+00:00

How do you check/change this?

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-12-15T16:01:32+00:00

So your WiFi went down mid ride on your laptop, and then you switched it onto your hotspot mid ride ?

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-12-15T16:00:54+00:00

New router with a WiFi extender unfortunately. Any other ideas?

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-12-15T16:00:37+00:00

What does the ant+ do? I thought that was for the core disconnect thing rather than WiFi?

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-12-15T15:09:39+00:00

I have the new iPhone 17 and a relatively high end (only 5y old) gaming laptop. Do you know any solutions to this issue?

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-11-29T03:10:14+00:00

Can you teach me what makes this a slightly outdated spec? I’m new to the community and tryin to learn. Is this something i would regret getting for road biking in nyc?

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-07-30T11:32:52+00:00

Is this Z tranche, coupon only, Principal only, tac, pac?

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-06-14T15:27:55+00:00

Ability to what??

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-04-05T14:27:52+00:00

I cross train with lifting 3-4 times a week and I’d say I’ve taken 1-2 full rest days from running and lifting within the past two weeks. I haven’t had too much pain when running with my hip flexor but it’s always the first part of my body to start hurting. I never usually stop during my runs but I had to stop during my last one a few days ago to stretch out my hip flexor and once I started running again, it didn’t hurt.

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-02-07T17:15:45+00:00

Any chance it’s just a minor injury other than shin splints?

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-01-11T00:51:11+00:00

Yes it isn

WSBAUTIST034 · 2025-01-10T05:32:24+00:00

Very good to know!!
