Hi everyone,
So I have installed OSMC in Raspberry Pi 3. I have managed to make hotspot working (ethernet to wifi) enabling “dns proxy”. Everything works fine in my Android TV Box and in my Android Phone (Sony Z5). But I get very less wifi strength or none (after sometime of connection) in my Windows laptop and MacBook Pro. Maximum time it can’t even connect.
I thought this might be because of WiFi channel and I used WiFi analyzer android app to check and my channel is in 1 and no one else has it in my neighborhood. Most people have 6 and 11. I am from Germany.
This is the new installation so it has all the updates.
My Pi is in the same room where I am using all the device and it has no any restrictions. I have total 5 devices that are connecting to the WiFi.
I have updated the drivers in Windows and it has no problem connecting with other wifi.
Please let me know if you need any other information for the solution!
Thanks in advance!
If it helps there is some information:

Update 1:
So I have this Raspberry Pi 3B+ newly bought. I used the same memory stick and sticked it in my new Raspberry Pi 3B+ and the result is same! I believe there is no problem with Hardware either.
