The Connections Optimizer software attempts to ensure that you have a stable internet connection and automatically switches you to another signal if you cannot reach the internet.
If you have not configured your Samsung Wireless to automatically concurrently connect (How to Connect to the Internet While Connected to the Samsung Wireless), Connections Optimizer will not allow you to stay connected.
If you are still having problems, please try connecting with another device or move the drive to another area.
