Re: New Control System - Wireless Problems
The other main issue with wireless our team had was with the security settings. In Chap 5 of the control system manual, they do not tell you to either enable security in the WGA or disable it in the WRT. Out of the box and following the manual does not have the security settings matched. If you can ping all of the devices individually when they are connected with cables, but cannot ping the WGA when it is disconnected from the WRT, then that is the clue that the security settings are not correct. You can either disable security on the WRT, or enable the matching security protocol on the WGA (make sure you get the encryption key, AKA SSID key, from the WRT). Also, make sure that you cycle the power to the DS, WRT and WGA, the WRT and WGA; reboots do not get the job done. I tested this many ways with the security configs and they only work when they are matched. Now the interesting question is (besides did we do something stupid and are the only ones with this issue?) is that which security setting is correct (WPA2 or disabled, depending on the defaults)? Mama told me never to leave an access point open, so my bet is on WPA2.
