Hi all, I'm using a Telkom ADSL 5102 router. I'm connect my PC (windows 7) perfectly. My laptop (windows vista) and Iphone connects to wifi. I can't seem to connect any blackberry or my PS3 to my wifi network. My security settings is WPA. It works fine if I remove the security settings.

I have tried both WAP - AES and WAP TKIP. My router doesnt have WPS. I have tried entering the device MAC address into router but didnt work.

Any suggestions?

i dont think that router can handle more than 2-3 concurrent wifi clients.

try turning off your PC / Laptop and iPhone and connecting again.

Hi There,
I have had a similar problem with mobile devices. I solved it by putting the mac address of permitted devices into the router and it worked fine. I had a quick look through the installation guide and I see no reference to the number of wireless connections supported.
Maybe it is time for a router upgrade?

Regards

Tim
