Used another cable to no avail.
If only there was some manual in english.
The manual that came with the router was totally inadequate iirc (a picturebook operation guide).

I set the switch to client that's right yes?Used as a wifi receiver on my peg2.
'Client' is the correct choice (out of AP/Router/Client).
Quote:
Maybe setting up the client is not possible in quick setup?
I avoided the wizard and went straight for manual setup.
The menu systems are dreadful, but once set up is does work ok. Have you tried Wireless Settings>Site Survey? Select your desired network, then click 'add profile'.
Another alternative is to export your settings, edit them manually, and re-import them (Administration>Settings Management)
Mine is set up as in client mode, connecting to a wireless network called <Foobar> with password <password>:
I'd just copy and paste the relevant bits, since there's also DHCP, routing and MAC address information in the file.
(NB - the SSID and password appear twice in the settings)
