Macbook pro cannot connect WiFi once usb-c cable is connected .

I purchased a new MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2017, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports).

Once I connect to USB-c adapter (UNITEK adapter) the computer is disconnecting from the WiFi network.

I have only 2.4 GHz WiFi network and I cannot use the internet.


What should I do in order to resolve it?


Thanks,

Nimrod.

It's a shielding problem from your adaptor or connected device.



You can try:

- If the adaptor has a cable, try to position adaptor or device behind your screen lid.

- Remove any device connected to the usb-c adaptor to test your wifi signal.

- Wrap your adaptor/hub/device in alu foil to shield the trouble maker.

- Try the 5ghz wifi band

- Buy brands that have EMC certificates (Belkin..)

- Try a usb-c port on the other side
