Troubleshooting Guide of Wi-Fi disconnecting issue on TP-Link MiFi devices
103886 There are multiple factors that might cause your Wi-Fi disconnecting automatically. Please read possible solutions below, which may fix your Wi-Fi disconnecting issue.
Problem phenomenon:
1. Wired connection works fine and stable, only wireless clients disconnect automatically.
2. Wi-Fi signal disappears and re-appears automatically after couple of seconds.
For possible solutions, please check the following suggestion:
1. Disable power saving mode
All our MiFi devices support power saving mode and it is enabled by default. When no client devices connect or using the internet for a specific time(10 minutes by default), the Wi-Fi will be disabled automatically, you need to press the power button to re-enable the Wi-Fi. Therefore, if the issue usually happens when no client devices using the internet, it is normal, and to avoid such issue, you could disable the power saving mode.

2. Change Wi-Fi channel from Auto to static one
3. Set 4G LTE band manually
On our MiFi devices, there is a LTE-WLAN channel avoidance mechanism, the MiFi will detect if there is any interference between LTE and Wi-Fi, if so, the Wi-Fi channel will change automatically. That mechanism is to avoid interference between LTE and Wi-Fi, but if LTE band changes frequently, customer may experience frequent Wi-Fi disconnection and reconnection as well when Wi-Fi changes its channel automatically.
Therefore, if problem still exists after you set static Wi-Fi channel, you could also try to set 4G LTE band manually on Advanced->Dial-up->Network Settings page.
NOTE: only part of MiFi devices support to set 4G LTE band manually including M7200 V2/V3 and M7350 V5/V7, if you don’t see the related settings, please skip this step.
4. Update to the latest firmware version
Check firmware update and make sure you are using the latest firmware.
