You guys are gonna think I am a real nut.
I went back and found one more Infocast 3.5 at that place.
So now I have 4 chumbys. Gee whiz.
So anyway, the first three are working except the Infocast 8 which has a blank music channel. I posted another thread about that.
The latest one is an Infocast 3.5.
Let me just say I was using an Airlink access point, but that thing was crashing several times a day. So i got rid of in and I now have an engenius ECB3220, an excellent device. It's up and working with the same SSID and WEP key.
I powered the last chumby up and it saw it's network. I gave it the wep key and it says the connection succeeded. But then, it goes back to the network selection menu again.
I gave it a static IP like I did the other one. It succeeded again, then went back to the same network selection screen. I am going around in circles.
I just typed the SSID for it and gave it a static IP. Connecting to network. Chugging.
No dice. Neither of the 3.5" units at this location are connecting. For some reason the 8" unit in the other room didn't miss a beat, I changed the ap and it connected to the new one just like it was always there. Hmm.
So both units say chumby.com is unreachable.
Just to be interesting here are logs from the access point.

I went back and put the new on on automatic IP, and I can see it getting an IP from DHCP in the AP. But it fails to connect. It says "Connecting to network" for a while, and I can see it in the DHCP client table by MAC address. But is it never successful. It associates, then 14 or 20 seconds later it is deauthenticated for some reason.
I have checked the WEP key.
I used the same exact ap with my laptop just now and no problems.
So the AP and the internet are verified as working on wireless.
I just dunno.
