    Hi Folks
    I took advice from some members here and bought a Humax WiFi-LAN compatible dongle "WHYFi USB Wireless Network Adaptor WHY0002" to connect my HDR-1800T receiver (purchased November 2021) to the internet.
    Once inserted there are two options: Configure WiFi and Configure LAN. You are instructed to select "Configure WiFi", but this is not highlighted and will not engage when attempts are made to select it.
    I configured LAN but this will not provide WiFi access. Any ideas please on fixing this problem before I return the dongle to Amazon?
    Thanks!

    Can I check, did you have a network cable plugged into the Humax whilst you were trying to configure the dongle? If so unplug the cable and try again.

    Hi Martin,

    Many thanks for your amazingly quick response to my query.

    You hit the nail on the head and as they say, "I'm in".

    I'll drop a donation into the box to show my appreciation.

    Thanks again!
