possible, it seems so, but we didn't test it

so I can't guarantee for compatibility

Thanks

Definately worth a try, and will let you know if it works

shardyl why not opt to get one that others have tried and know it works? Myself and a few others are running this one and it was pretty simple to configure

Thanks Al!

I will certainly use this if the belkin doesn't work, Its just that I aready have the belkin working for the seneye and it has 4 usb ports so fingers crossed it works!

It was only £36 from Amazon so would save me a bit of money too (not that It would count for much in the grand scheme of this build anyway lol) small fortune! could have bought a pretty decent new car!

Oh I totally missed that you have it working already. "DUH" yeah I wouldn't buy another one either. If you've already got it working on your LAN you've got half the work done (really much more than half) in regards to WLAN. Once you have your ProfiLux up and running hardwire it to your LAN to make sure it's accessible that way. This is merely incase you have trouble with your WLAN you've already confirmed P3 connectivity and wont have to back up to troubleshoot this later. Once that's done simply plug into your Belkin and there's probably not any more "Settings" to change. Restart your PLC software and connect to P3 wirelessly. It's really pretty darn simple.

Just one more thing to try. Disconnect the USB. Use the power lead of the profilux to power the VAP11G (make sure that you do not connect the USB or you will fry the computer) and try again. I had some problems with the USB but it worked fine doing this.

Thanks. Can i configure the device whilst it is plugged into the profilux? I thought i have to configure it on the PC first to find the router?

That can´t work for initial setup, it´s for normal work after setup only. Put in the LAN pcable in your router or PC and the USB/power courd into an workung USB socket. Alternatively you can use the power supply from the Profilux - it fits exactly in the socket on the back. of the VAP11G. Then run setup.
