Thread: Recommended wireless settings

  1. #11

    Default

    The Box sees my wifi just fine.
    It just won't accept my password.
    It's only letters. All lower case.

    I have a macbook and my wifi router is a Cisco Valet M-10.
    I changed the security to WPA Personal and still no joy.

    Hi HoneyBearKelly,

    I don't such a router at hand so could you let me know what other security options the router have other than 'wpa personal'?

    I think these are the only choices I get from a mac.
    None
    WEP Password
    WEP 40/128-bit hex
    WEP 40/128-bit ASCII
    LEAP
    WPA Personal
    WPA Enterprise
    WPA2 Personal
    WPA2 Enterprise
    802.1X WEP



    WPA2 Personal is the default setting.

    Everything was working fine before the latest update and I can connect via ethernet.
    But the wifi is the reason I bought this in the first place.

    Could you try 'WPA2 Personal'?

    That's the setting I had from the start.
    I only changed it when the box wouldn't accept my password after the latest update.

    No. All letters. 2 uppercase.
    Maybe I should change that.

    I don't think you should change the password and I think you should go with WPA2 personal.

    Is this a hidden network? i.e. you have to type the network name instead of choosing it from a list?

    I choose from list.
    The Box "sees" the wifi just fine and the signal is strong.
    It just rejects the password which is all lower case letters.

    errr, I really don't know what could be the issue. Up until now it was always one of the things I asked you about.
    There's a new version released in couple of days. Could you wait till it's released? It includes couple of bug fixes. I know it's not convenient but I don't have anything else to offer at the moment.
