Hi all
I got my iPod (8gb Week 38) last week, and have been having problems ever since getting safari, itunes and youtube working. It appears to connect to my homes wifi (WPA AES encryption) it has had a few instances of working for 5 mins but these are sporadic (signal and proximity to the router dont matter as i get a strong signal everywhere) It sometimes will also work for around 20 seconds after rebooting my router or forgetting my network and rejoining on my iPod. My Wifi router Is a Gigabyte GN-BRO1G which is hard wired to my adsl router which is the dhcp server . the wifi works on my psp, my macbook, a laptop and a desktop around my house. I have quite a resonable knowledge of networking and this has left me stumped. the ipod also seems to work well on a neighbors unencrypted wifi except the signal is so weak i cant really use it.
here are the technical things
Wireless router ip :192.168.1.254
adsl router (dhcp server aswell) : 192.168.1.1
working macbooks wifi settings (using dhcp) ip 192.168.1.6 dns 192.168.1.1 router/gateway 192.168.1.1 and subnet 255.255.255.0
Type of encrytion WPA AES
ive tried static and dhcp on my iPt but both seem to fail to give me anything that works. i have changed my encrytion to wep and unprotected but it still wont work. im 99% sure the ip setting on my touch are right aswell (it receives an ip from my router when doing dhcp)
any suggestions to getting it work would be appreciated.
Cheers robPOD
