Laptop->wifi->WN3000RP fails but Laptop->wifi->router->wifi->WN3000RP works
I'm one of the people having trouble setting up a WN3000RP. My problem seems subtly different to the others. I have a router (Huawei HG556a, supplied by my network provider) and that seems to be work...
I should add one more thing.
If I power down the router the WN3000RP will respond to a wifi connect request. My theory is that it knows it can't get to its configured DHCP server (the router) so it uses its own (ie the one it uses during initial config).
But there might be something more interesting going on.
