Hello, I just changed my Freebox (the previous one was defective) I think I made the connections correctly (I had made a diagram of the previous one). The phone and TV are working, but not the internet on my laptop. I can't find the identifier for my new Freebox on my laptop. I can't reach Free, for them everything is working normally (they did a remote test). As for the website, after various questions, they are doing the same thing as on the phone. Could you help me? Thank you in advance Sincerely Jolya Configuration: Windows / Firefox 88.0

internet connection after changing the Freebox : CCM

I had the same problem when I received my Freebox mini
you need to go to :http://mafreebox.freebox.fr/
On the left, select the 2.4g wifi card
Freebox settings / wifi / network configuration / enable the personal network
configuration choice: specific to the card
uncheck hide the SSID
fill in the SSID and the wifi key
protection type WPA2 - AES (recommended)
enable WPS

don't forget to activate, ok at the bottom right

the network should appear on the laptop and mobile

Oh?
The Freebox would arrive in factory settings with Wi-Fi disabled?

No, I wrote what was in my configuration
it's the Wi-Fi key that was not specified.

Hi,
laptop ...
you mean a laptop, right?
You can't see the wifi network of your new fbx then?
Do you see any others?

and ... Here you go!

Good evening

Best regards

ah OK, it's happening on Freeboxes now too ...
In Freebox OS,
try giving different SSID names to the two Wi-Fi networks of the Freebox 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz:
for example Joly2 and Jolya5
PS,
I see you're posting from a Bouygues address, is that normal?
Is it a mobile?

Good evening,

I remember that something similar happened to me with my Revolution. The PC couldn't see the wifi.
I solved the problem by changing the wifi channel.
To do this in Freebox OS: Freebox Settings > Wifi > radio configuration

It's interesting,
this problem comes up quite often right now, is changing the channel enough?
I still have my doubts since the Freebox has a radar to find the best channel in theory.
This is an issue that seems to occur frequently with the latest versions of Windows, and it looks like we're going to have to work on it, thanks for your help :-)

Hello,

Which Freebox model?

Generally, you need to go to FreeBox Os to configure the wifi and its password.

Hello and thank you all for your cooperation.
I am trying to connect to "mafreebox.freebox" as suggested by Christian, but the site is not responding and indicates a loading error.
Does it still exist?
I also tried "FreeBox OS," but I can't find the settings anywhere. I'm not very skilled, I must admit.
I will redo all the connections.
I will try again during the day, the weather is good for staying inside.
The big problem is that Free is not responding; for them, everything is fine!!!!!
Best regards
Jolya

To connect to http://mafreebox.freebox.fr/, you must, of course, do so from a PC that is connected to the Freebox network.

And when the Wi-Fi isn't working, it can be done with an Ethernet cable.
Look,
the dumb robot manages to find the page, that's strange.
It should only work on a Free connection.

Christian* Posted messages 4874 Status Membre 2 433 > brupala Posted messages 111943 Registration date Status Membre Last intervention

Yes, that's what I did to set up my network configuration
and to access it, see: https://www.free.fr/assistance/5056.html

Hello,
I found someone who had the same problem with their Freebox.
Actually, the issue comes from the wiring between the box, the decoder, and the two units. If you follow the description given in the procedures, (I might have made a mistake), you end up with too many plugs connected.
The person who helped me reviewed the entire setup and it works now.
Thank you for your help.
Best regards.

In principle, Wi-Fi is wireless, to begin with :-)
However, you can access your box's configuration via an Ethernet cable between it and your PC.

Good evening and thank you
I am familiar with the principles stated.
The Free equipment includes the box, the TV decoder, and two boxes with several cables having multiple inputs. Not all of these inputs should be connected. It's a bit complicated to explain, and for me to understand. The person in my circle has redone the circuit (he knows better than I do) and it works. And I admit that I haven't tried to understand so far
I will take note of the circuit and neutralize the plugs not to be used
In any case, thank you for your help
Jolya

a good circle of friends is always preferable to a forum, no matter how good it is :-)

Christian* Posted messages 4874 Status Membre 2 433 > jolya

"two boxes with several cables having multiple inputs" !!!
I think you're talking about the 2 Freeplugs (one Freeplug with cables for powering and Ethernet connection from the box and one Freeplug for the TV decoder to place it away from the box if you want)
if you place the TV decoder next to the box, you can use the provided Ethernet cable
and only use the Freeplugs for powering the box and the TV decoder

as brupala said, the connection of cables has nothing to do with the Wi-Fi emitted by the box!

Have you restarted the laptop?
Otherwise, check the entire firewall configuration.

brupala Posted messages 111943 Registration date Status Membre Last intervention 14 421

Hi,
Firewall ...
we should find the wifi network first before talking about the firewall, Seb.
And check the config, it doesn’t mean anything if you don't specify what needs to be set, which you actually know nothing about.
