WIFI connection issue with all 3.00.00 firmware

ok so im confused!! I have a wireless adapter TP-LINK TL-WN821N which has worked for over a year since i got the HUB. and its on the list of supported wifi adapters all of a sudden none of the new 3.000.000 firmwares support this and I can't connect to my wireless singnal? I tried all of the new ones until and rolled back to  Firmware Ver. 2.08.13 |  and my wifi connected automatically without having to reset my password.

 

Can someone at WD please explain why the new firmware does not support my wireless adapter, very frustrating.

You will need to reach WD directly mate, perhaps the supported version change.

Re: WIFI connection issue with all 3.00.00 firmware

I'm dealing with that very same issue right now.

 

I just bought a WD TV Live Hub and allowed it to upgrade the firmware automatically.

 

Once I was done I could no longer connect to the internet via a wireless adapter that is also on the approved list.

 

I too had to roll back the firmware to version 2.08 and now it connects to the internet again.

 

I wonder what gives??????

 

I'm waiting for a response from WD support but I'm really not expecting any real solution.

 

But, who knows? They may surprise me with a fix.

Re: WIFI connection issue with all 3.00.00 firmware

Hello -

 

I have the HUB updated to version 3.07.14 and have now purchased the TP-Link Wireless N USB Adapter TL-WN721N, which is on the approved list.  However, I can't connect to the internet.

 

Can anyone confirm this issue still exists before I roll back the firmware?  And does anyone have any experience with a more recent firmware (than 2.08) hat works with the TP-Link adapters?

 

Thanks in advance,

Kim
