I have auto DHCP set on the router. I have the mac address of the Patriot USB lan adapter in my mac filter. I have the personal key entered. My network recognizes it but in the browser for setting up wireless setup I still get DHCP not ready and the empty bars on the right. What else do I need to do to get it to connect to the network wirelessly?

I turned broadcast on and it picked it right up. Accessed all content and is playing fine. I'll have to see if there is a way around that as I don't like transmitting the ssid.

How do you know what the USB adapter's MAC address is?

RBaggs, at this point, from what we've gathered so far, there is no way to pick it up without broadcasting.

Go into your router config, it should show up there.
