Hi again:71:
Now Ive setup most things on my dm800 I wanted to make my box wifi.
Ive been trying to read around this and I have a Dlink g122 which I think is fine with the dm800.
How do I activate the wifi on the box so I can enter the WEP key?
Do I need to download any drivers or plugins to make this happen? I have gone into my network settings and there is no wifi option to enable.
Thanks agaion for your help:47_002:
Have you stuck the dlink adapter in your laptop to configure it?
No. What do I need to do to configure it?
I thought you would plug into dreambox.
Thanks for any help.
No m8 you plug it into your laptop first to configure it..
Plug it in..
let the drivers install and you should get a set up screen..
You enter your security details there like WEP etc and then put it into the Dreambox when fully configured!
No worries!
Ok I have done all of that, setup the usb stick in my computer identified my router and put the wep key in.
I have plugged the usb stick into the dm800, rebooted and nothing there is no option to enable wifi, in adapter setting it says connection unplugged.
What else can I be doing wrong?
Which image are you using? Are you sure it's one that supports wifi?
blackhole latest one.
You could try using the wirelesslan system plugin fix. Then look in your network settings and see if it can be activated.
Right I have downloaded the file and installed iand I get the message
fopen(//usr/lib/opkg/info/gst-plugin-selector.list): no such file or directory
Execution Finished
It has not been installed
would the TP-LINK TL-WN321G USB adapter be better?
These are new for about £6. My Dlink is about 5 years old.

I take it that there are different variations of each of these usb drives taht have the Railink chipset.
Ive just checked my dlink and it is verB1 F/W1.0 (I think this is the problem!) as I dont thisnk it has the Railink chipset.
How can I make sure that they have the right chipset?
Thanks
Ive managed to get hold of a ralink rt73 usb stick. (Dlink G122 C1 F/W 3.10)
When I plug it into the dm800 it recognises the usb stick, but when I go into the setup the dreambox freezes and then crashes. I have tried this a few times now and every time the box creashes and I have to pull the plug to reboot.
Is there anything else I can do to stop the box from doing this?
Thanks
