WIFI DHCP problem

[smoothdog]

I've been having some issues with my wifi dropping out lately and was checking some setting on my router. I wanted to be sure that nothing was interfering with the frequency my router was on so I switched it from auto (using channel 6) to a static channel. The RA wifi dropped immediately so I tried a few other channels with no success (including channel 6 that it was on when I started) then set it back to auto. Now my wifi module won't get a DHCP address at all. I was on the 4 firmware and reverted back to the previous version just to see if that was the issue but still no joy. I did a factory reset and re-ran the wifi setup and now I get the results below. It associates and authenticates fine, but fails to get a DHCP address. Any ideas? All other devices on my network connect and get addresses assigned just fine.

If the blue LED is still blinking, it means that the Reef Angel Wifi Attachment could not connect to your wifi network.

Oh, and channel 3 is now the correct channel.

Thanks for the quick response Roberto! I just jumped on here to post that apparently it was my router causing the problem. Only my PCs recovered from the channel change. Any non-windows device would not re-connect. A hard reset of the router fixed the issue. That's good info on the ver. 4 firmware, might give that a shot again.
