    Unhappy Ariva 52E - WiFi- 'Connection Failed'

    I have Ferguson's WiFi W02 Adapter, and a Ferguson Ariva 52E HD Receiver.

    After turning security key off, I now finally have an internet connection between my Ariva 52E and Router (shows WiFi Device : On (Connected), and a signal strength of 75%.

    When i set DHCP to 'On', i get 'STB successfully got an IP'. However, when i go to YouTube, Web TV, and download some programs (which then appear on the right), i get 'Connection Failed' when i select a program.

    When i try 'YouPorn', i don't get any dowloads...it just says ' Network is not available'.

    As i can download some programs in WebTv, and have signal strength to Router of 75% (although i get connection failed/can't view them), i can at least get this far now, so there must be just some setting to change in the Ariva 52E... but what?

    Finally, is there a way of re-setting my password in the Ariva WITHOUT doing a Factory Reset?

    I really would appreciate some help!

    thanks in advance,

    Cant help with this one, only have 102E & Mini and a 202E.

    What firmware are you using? Did you input your wifi key correctly and wait for it to obtain an IP address?

    No, i was told on ferguson's homepage to turn off the security key (on pc they mean). Since then i have got connection with my router, and my receiver finds it's own IP adress. However, i still can't view the videos i download... just get 'connection failed' when i click on them.

    My software version says V.17B8, and mentions a newer version is available (v.1.19B1). I've tried downloading this newer version, but the download just gets stuck at 85%.

    Should i download this newer version, or is there a better 'patch' that won't kill my receiver, and maybe give me better WiFi connection?

    Here's is what Ferguson say on the Wi-Fi W02:-

    Code:

    Hope we can help eachother with this!

    Just checked, looks like Youtube has an issue right now. Will need to wait for firmware update. Dailymotion all fine.

    Ariva 52E with WiFi adapter

    After eventually getting my Ariva 52E to work with my Ferguson WiFi W02 Adapter (original signal strength appx. 75%), i cannot get a network connection AT ALL now for some reason!

    I uploaded the newest software V1.20B1_20120925, which DID get the network to work at last, though sporadically.

    I did get downloads on YouTube & YouPorn working (though not all the time), but cannot even connect up to network at all now!

    Maybe i just have a Network Setting to adjust in my menus?

    Can anyone help me please?

    thx

    Wish I could, but have only used the 102E + Mini and 202E.

    I'd guess its down to signal strength, your most likely using the rear port. Use a USB extension cable to connect the WiFi dongle so its not restricted at the rear of the receiver.

    Do you mean that if i connected a USB cable, then i could have my WiFi adapter in end of that, and nearer my router (for better signal strength)?

    Otherwise, i was wondering if there is such a thing as a USB - Network cable? Then i could just connect my receiver DIRECTLY to my router, without using the Wifi adapter.

    Any thoughts?
    thanks

    Might it be your wifi encryption. Maybe try setting it as an open network temporarily, and see whether it allows you to connect when setup like that?!

    Try the Tenda available from our Sponser World of satellite,
    I have the Ariva 102e mini fitted behind the TV in the bedroom with the router been downstairs, i did purchase the ferguson Wi-fi but the signal
    strength wasnt strong enough and it kept dropping the conection, Purchased the Tenda unit and it works a treat set it as Client plus AP and now
    have full strength Wi-fi up stairs as well as down, using this tenda unit also keeps your USB port available for any recording that you may want to do.
