Any wireless router will help you connect with artemis. I have used Dlink, netgear and also linksys routers to connect.

TO connect sucessfully, you need to activate wireless on the router. Then enable wireless in your arte using the comm manager. Once the wireless is activitated, try searching for networks.

thanx,
but i really aint a novice!
I have tried the belkin n1 now for time and time again...it searches, finds the network, asks for the pin...and returns wireless as unavailable again...
this repeats regardless of security settings or anything else i tried

i remember there having been a lengthy discussion on this...just cant find it..

so back to my question:
which hardware does work?
ideally quote your settings as well, please

have you checked that both the router and artemis are using the same authentication type? WPA/WEP etc

it might be worth checking that your router isnt set to N-Only for connection speed too....cant remember what speeds the artemis supports but B or G are most likely and maybe your router would reject the connection if it's the wrong type...IIRC the 'N' spec is still in-progress so not widely supported yet

You are not alone!!! I bought a Belkin N1 Vision in December to replace an ageing 3Com router and no matter what I tried I couldn't get my artemis to work. Even without any security. Finally sent the Belkin back and got a D-Link DIR-655. It works like a dream. Connected with no problems at all. :)

Darn, that confirms what i thought for quite some time - anybody intrested in owning an N1Belkin!

Just doublechecked with an old netgear--and it connects right away...
thanx for ur help!

now could we widen the length of compatible routers, pls.?!

I use a sitecom 300N router and my artemis connects with it without any problem.

Hi, I use a Netgear WNR834B. No problems using WiFi with Artemis.
Setup; WiFi up to 270 MbPs, region Europe, channel 6 broadcasting and the strongest encryption for security.

With all of the ROMs i have used, there were no WiFi issues.

This may be stating the obvious, and I apologize if it sounds stupid, but has anyone checked for the "wireless mode" on the router ?

Just ensure the router is on "mixed mode", i.e. it supports b/g/n connections...

Hope this helps...:)

had the same problem with n1. tried and tried last night with luck, removed all settings on artemis dissapointed. gave it another go this evening after booting system up and connected okay after putting in password.
just double check all the router wireless settings and any security settings you have. save any changes and restart the router.
hope this helps

Well done getting it to work. I thought I tried everything! Perhaps it was the restart that did it. Too late for me to confirm. My Belkin went back to be replaced with the DLink 655. Good router but does slow down with time and needs a reboot every now and then.:)
