D-Link WiFi problems

Options

‎03-18-2011 06:28 PM

I bought a D-Link DWA-131 USB 2.0 Wireless Nano Adapter. This is on the list of supported devices. When I try to connect the WD Media Hub to the network via the WiFi device, it sees my SSID and takes my password, but then gives me a "Cannot get an IP address" error. It says "Limited or no connectivity".

 

It is 5 feet from my router!!

 

I have many other wifi devices and they all get their dynamic ip addresses perfectly.

 

Ideas?

Doube check your password.

 

With WiFi, the Hub won't actually say if it failed to connect to the WiFi network.   It'll just not pass the connection test.
