Hi. When I turn on wifi on my mobile phone my smart modem does not appear. The smart modem appears on my tablet and I can connect. Any suggestions please.

Thanks

You could try turning of band steering in the modem this will add -5G to the 5GHz WiFi SSID.

To disable band steering open a Web browser on device connected to modem and go to http://192.168.0.1, password is Telstra. Go to the 2.4 GHz WiFi settings, remove tick next to band steering and save settings. Yo might have to do this twice as sometimes the modem although it might state the settings have been saved the band steering is still enabled.
