ariva 202e wifi setup

[bean in france]

Hi
Does anyone have any info on how to setup the wifi on the ferguson 202e , i have the wifi dongle and it shows the strength of the signal to the router but it will not connect and also the router does not show that the 202e is trying to access it. i have downloaded the manual but it does not cover wifi setup just the lan cable.

What do you use wifi network security? WEP, WPA, WPA2, MAC or Control?

HI
I am using a netgear router and the security options are disabled. My sons phone logged on no problem.
It seems the box can see the router, because you can see the strength of the signal to the router- but the router can not see the box. I have even tried manually entering the address onto the router but still no connection

Re: ariva 202e wifi setup

Hi all
Thanks for all your help. the dongle is correct because i have tried another wifi dongle and the sat box advises me that i need a main chip ralink 5370 which i now have and it shows the router and the signal strength which is 73%. but when i access the router it does not show anything mac address trying to access it. i have disabled the security on the router.When i try and connect with the sat box it trys and then times out, if i could extend the connect time it might help. Is there anyone who has the ariva 202e that has connected wifi?
