    Connecting wirelessly

    I am so grateful to you guys for trying to help me out here!! The network was set up quite recently when I got a new computer and I set it up with the Talktalk router. You are right in that the network name and password are on a sticker on the top - and these are the ones I used to set it all...

    Connecting wirelessly

    Hi af123!! Thank you for your comprehensive reply! I have already done what you suggested - a few times - but I went through the steps again. It finds the network, no problem. It then asks for the security type and gives 4 options (all the WEP ones are greyed out anyway) - the options are...

    Connecting wirelessly

    Thank you all for taking the time to reply!! Unfortunately I think I am now ready to raise the white flag and throw in the towel!! I have tried everything but still the internet will not connect on the Humax - despite it going through all the processes quite happily and looking like it is...

    Connecting wirelessly

    I have tried to connect wirelessly with the dongle but unfortunately it hasn't worked! All looks well at first - it picks up my wireless network name, then asks the security type (WAPS WAP etc - 4 choices - not sure which to try so I tried them all!) and I put in the right password - it then...

    Connecting wirelessly

    Following the help and advice on here, I have now received my Edimax dongle and am needing some help in how to go about getting it to work!! It comes with a disc - do I have to install this on my computer first before I go about putting the dongle into the Humax? Sorry to sound dim - but this...

    Using wifi to access bbciplayer

    Many thanks again - had a look at the thread - and it looks like the best one would be either the EW-7711UAn or the EW-7711USn. Any advice as to whether either of these would be preferable to the other? Or does it not really matter?

    Using wifi to access bbciplayer

    Gee - you guys are so helpful on here!! I am glad I did a bit of surfing around to find this!! Any advice on a compatible Wifi USB dongle? I see the link for the Humax one, but am aware that there are others from reading other threads - although would not want to compromise being successful...

    Using wifi to access bbciplayer

    Thank you very much for posting your reply so quickly!! I have a talktalk wireless router, but can't unfortunately use an ethernet cable as it is in a different room. Presumably when you say I need to 'tell my humax which wireless network' I do this using the handset?? (I haven't yet plugged...

    Using wifi to access bbciplayer

    I have just bought a HDR FOX T2 today and see that it is possible to access bbciplayer by wifi. I am not particularly savvy with technology, but have wifi from my computer. I have had a look at other threads and it seems to be saying that it is quite straightforward to use a dongle. Is it as...
