Default [Q] Wifi connection

I just got my A7 Elocity and been trying to get it to reconize my Linksys wireless router I use in my home. SO far it is not reconizing it, my other tablet and wii does. It has done the scanning thing but still won't reconize it. Do I need to buy another wireless box? This one I got is several years old but has worked for everything except my wireless printer. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks, Brenda aka Mysterychi

Check how configured wireless network in your router.
- Don't use WEP keys - Android doesn't like it.
- Check wifi channel number - it must be not greater than 11
- Temporary try reconfigure your wifi-network to open mode (if it works, so add some security)

I purchased mine back on feb 1 I had same problem. My A7 was stuck in some kinda loop going back and forth from searching, authinticating, connected, and disconnecting the wifi. Once I did the firmware update from elocity it bingo no problems since. I think you need to just install the firmware from elocity support page.

As WEP is so easy to break, give a shot using WPA2. I'm using a Cisco Valet and my tabs connect beautifully. Usually just using g but the throughput is dandy.
