    I’m having a rather irritating issue when attempting to connect a HDR-1000s via wifi.

    It worked on a talktalk router but the signal was rubbish so I upgraded to a TP-Link TD-W8960N for more range and better signal. I was then unable to connect through the dongle via any authentication WEP, WPA or WPA2 (personal). I tried a different router, an Asus DSL-N10, however this has the same issues, although when there is no password set (open network) the dongle and HDR-1000s box will connect. As soon as I put any kind of password on the network it will not connect. The SSID is being broadcast as well.

    I can’t find an answer anywhere for this on any forum, and everyone who has asked has just been told ‘buy homeplugs and connect via a cable’ I do not want to do this due to both the expense and because this did/does connect unless I have a password on it.

    Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, I’m willing to try almost anything barring an exorcism or voodoo.

    Thanks

    Hi welcome to the forum. Have you tried a password with no embedded spaces and/or non asci characters ?
