Skybox F5s WI-FI set up

[Padge69]

Hi All.

Can anybody point me in the right direction as to where and if there is a set up guide for setting up wi-fi on a Skybox F5s please?
If there isn't one, can someone please advise how i set this up please?

Tried doing it last night and kept getting an error message when putting my router key in.
Said something along the lines of "error - key has to be 5-13 digits" then ascii or something along those lines.

The key is correct as i have it set up on other devices fine.

Can anyone help please?

Thanks all!

Do you have a wifi dongle? the F5S does not have wifi built in, despite it saying so on the box.

Ethernet is the best way to connect

Wireless is hit and miss with these boxes if you cant use a straight cable invest in some homeplugs about £20

Homeplugs are the way to go but you can get yourself a very cheap wifi dongle if you go to ebay and search for slybox wifi dongle. There priced about £5.99
