Weak Wi‑Fi signal at charger location, Interference from other devices, Faulty Wi‑Fi module or antenna, Outdated firmware

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Network issues do not usually affect electrical safety, but always ensure the charger is installed correctly.

  • Check signal strength: Use your phone near the charger to see Wi‑Fi signal quality. If weak, move the router closer or add a Wi‑Fi extender.
  • Change Wi‑Fi channel: Reduce interference by changing the router’s channel or band (2.4 GHz vs 5 GHz) if supported.
  • Firmware update: Update the charger firmware via the app or USB to improve network stability.
  • If drops persist with strong signal: The Wi‑Fi module or antenna inside the Schumacher charger may be faulty and require replacement.
