    Default I lost my WiFi

    Hi there,

    Maybe someone can give me an idea here.

    using The little wifi antenna with my MAG254.

    Works great.

    Went to a buddys house, put the WEP password in the mag, worked fine.

    NOW I bring it back home, put the WEP password in and it won't connect.

    I can use a Ethernet cable and it works fine, just no WiFi.
    Tthe unit detects the wifi networks, but just won't connect. anyone else have this trouble?

    usually when that happens it is because the router is seeing the same device twice and doesn't really know how to deal with the issue.

    I got it. You didn't see me sneak in your back door the other day. If you want it back it'll cost you.
