h2s internet connection failed ? wifi problems

hi
just flashed wooshbuild v5 on a zgemma h2s for a friend using ethernet cable no problems
and then put a wifi adaptor in it
this is where the problems started
it wont connect to there wifi
in the connection test it fails on ip and nameserver
i have changed the security type in the zgemma to wpa or wpa2, and still no joy
i have gone through the network setting 20 times trying different security
i have now took the zgemma to my house and got it working on my router
it will only work on wpa only on mine not (wpa or wpa2) ?
its a sky router the one with the smily face on it , with the origonal password in caps on it
what type of security does it need changing to in the zgemma?
thanks
 
Is it this one? I don't have sky

If it's is why not just log into it's ip 192.168.0.1 and change the security to wpa/wpa 2
Log in details are:
Username admin
Password sky

That's what I found from your description and a quick google search

yes thats the one

these zgemma box's have got to be the worst box's to connect to the wifi surely?
mine connected with wpa and when i changed it to (wpa or wpa2) it dont work then i connect it back to wpa and do a network test says all ok but wont work untill i turn power of on box and back on again

or is it these wifi adaptors from ebay?

I did one the other day, used a small wifi dongle off flea bay and it connected wpa/wpa2 no probs at all, like I say just check in the router what the security settings are, and change them to suit your requirements

cheers mate
i will log onto his router tomorrow and see what it is

my router is set to wpa but why wont (wpa or wpa2 work)
it will only work when zgemma is on wpa not the (wpa or wpa2) setting
 
That's not what he is asking, he's just asking about connection security and as this is your first post, hi and welcome to the forum !

sorted it
changed the security on the sky router to wpa,it was set to WPA-PSK2 i think
and then set it to wpa in the zgemma and works perfectly
but wouldnt work with the setting set to (wpa or wpa2) setting in the zgemma.?

thanks for all the replys
 
Yep this is sort of what worked for me as well. I changed mine to what crow suggested and after a few router and network restarts all five boxes were crossed. I then changed the router back to WPA/WPA2-PSK because I thought it might conflict with the settings of existing devices and rebooted the router to what was it's normal setting. Restarted the zgemma network and all five crosses remained green.
