wlan setup please please help

i remember once a very old and wise maybe ugly man lol (stevejo) saying why not ask your next door neighbour to connect to there wi-fi and explain your predicament and maybe slip them a tenner to use there internet for a couple of weeks?

you will need to look at the drivers in plugins if you can identify the chip in the dongle will be easier if not use the dongle in a pc or laptop and internet connection share to the sat box you will need a crossover cable or crossover adapter for this unless you use a ethernet switch between the pc and sat box

Have you got the dongle connected to the internet on the pc/laptop and are you using a crossover cable ?have you set up the pc/laptop to allow other devices to use the dongle to connect to the internet

i have the dongle on line on my laptop set the pc to share internet conection and pluged a ethernet to my solo2

My understanding is that the ethernet cable will will need to be a crossover type and not a standard type ! Unless you use a switch between them !
Its to do with the pin outputs at the ethernet connection on each device !

Yep either a crossover cable or the only other choice is a crossover adaptor used with a standard patch cable....

What are you using on the pc windows 7 ? you need to ics the adapter for the dongle and your network card , have a look here you will get something off you tube or google if you search

not sure what o/s you are running so look it up , the crossover removes the need for a switch but you still need to config your port
