skybox f3 wifi connection problem

[spdude1]

good guide spdude1.

Thanks for your comment Kaiser1...just hope it can help skyboxf3 sort his wifi out..!!

[kaisar1]

My router has Authentication/encryption as wpa-psk...try selecting that and then you might get the option of wpa and wpa2 seperately in your security mode

This is how it looks like on my router:

Security

Broadcast Network Name:Yes
Allow New Devices:New stations are allowed (automatically)
Security Mode:WPA-PSK
WPA-PSK Preshared Key:xxxxxxx
WPA-PSK Encryption:AES
WPA-PSK Version:WPA2

Hope this helps..!!

attached pic of my router settings.

Hi i have an Huawei e585 and ive tried everything cannot get it to connect! anyone have any ideas? Please and thanks!

im having time out errors too, i have allocated ip on my router, i have tried dchp, i have tried open security. ahhhhh not working

[karl1984]

Has anyone been able to get this working with a belkin sky router?

The only options I have are - WEP or WEP 802.11 or mix of WEP/WEP2. If I choose WEP or WEP 802.11 then my laptop loses wireless connection and it generates a 26-digit key. When I enter the 26 digit key into skybox it errors on invalid ASCII 5 or 13 message.

Having problems getting wireless to work with BT broadband router. Changed settings to WEP2 only, still timing out. Maybe that Firmware will help but I'm on a MacBook Pro and the dongle is only for PCs. Anyone know how I can get firmware on to dongle via a Mac?

[beanoz]

Hi from Thailand! I'm also having trouble with WiFi.
Should DHCP be on or off?

having same problem - have tried all differnet wifi settings and even tried open hotspot on phone but times out every time.. :$

I'm having the same "timeout" connection problem but i'm on vermin with a superhub.

in security i have these options
WPA Auto
WPA2-PSK[AES]
WPA-PSK[TKIP]
WPA/WPA2 Enterprise
WEP
Disable
I dont have the WPA2 on its own , also, even whwen i disable the security it still gives me "timeout". Anyone on vermin superhub and got it working ? mine is an offical mini dongle as well.

Hi mate, I have the same hub and same problem as you. If I manage to sort the problem then I'll post the solution, can you do the same as well. Thanks
