Hi one and all,I am trying to get the openbox s11 work with an openmedia wifi bridge.I have worked through the install of the wifi bridge and it seems to have connected to the network,although I didn't put a wep key in,it asked for a passphrase which I made up.Plug the wifi bridge into the openbox went to network,and applied.There was no message to say whether I connected or didn't.I ticked my cline and rebooted the box.When I went back into the cccam cfg my line was still offline.Where have I gone wrong? Thanks in advance.

Maybe adding the wep or wpa key will work.
I didn't put a wep key in,it asked for a passphrase which I made up.

I dont know if vonets and openmedia wifi bridge is same but they look simular
plug it into computer and disconnet all other net connections and look if net work
on vonets its some problem with wpa aes so use tkip -
mine works ok using wpa2 and aes

Hi all,I read somewhere I needed to hard wire the box to the router to set up the network first,so I have done that.Still having diffs (or fun,depending on your take) with the wifi bridge.

Sometimes these can be a pain in the backside, use a different laptop/computer on your network, run set up and try again, once your device is seen on your network you can use it on any device you want.

you dont have to hard wire to your router. all you have to do is connect the bridge to a pc on your network. search for connected bridge, then put the wep/wpa key into the section where is asks for passphrase (or something like that)
and away you go. just connect to your openbox and should work. -
connect the wifi bridge to your pc/laptop by usb and ethernet
run the setup program on the supplied cd
it should find the wifi bridge so its just a case of pressing next until the screen which asks for your network key
do not make one uo, you must enter the correct key for your broadband setup, quite often this is printed on a sticker under your broadband router
if you get both the orange power light and the blue data light on then all should be well
also ensure that DHCP is set to ON in the network settings of your Openbox -
