Hi All...
My 1st post,, a shame it is about a problem. :(
Anyway, after examining the 4 WM6 versions currently available I went for the Dutty upgrade.
I followed the Hermes guide to the letter, & EVERYTHING seems to have updated perfectly.
Including my radio firmware being 1.41 now.... WM6 seems to be running like a dream aw well.
However, when i go to connect to my local wifi router, despite it SEEING the ssid, & signal strength & saying it is available etc.... It even starts to initiate.... (my tytn picking up the SSID & channel num etc. ) But it fails to connect (i.e. getting an IP address) & throws up a timeout error.
BTW, my wifi zone has NO security applied to make it easy to connect to - ALL my home PC's etc are all connected & working fine.
Before i upgraded (older radio firmware & WM5) the tytn DID connect.
Strangely enough - Sitting in another room, my Tytn can find another open Wifi router from my neighbour - who also has no security.... when i select this router - the Tytn DOES CONNECT!!! - & I can brouse the net via HIT Wifi - So it does work?????
So what could it be? - something to do with the radio firmware? WM6 maybe? or something subtle with my router settings that didn't pose a problem before, but do now??? - My Router is a D-Link DI-524 - And has been perfect & trouble free for all devices connecting to it for nearly a year.
Anyone have any ideas?
Cheers
