cant connect to wifi networks

[TKlondon]

i am connected via a lan cable and that works fine, but when i try and connect to any wifi network that has been found , the box tries for  a few seconds and then says "coulnt find...." even  when i chose "view available networks" they all show up, i just cant connect to anything.

is there something i am missing or is there a WPS option i can try ?

thanks

the first time I went thru the initial setup, the P6 up did have a WSP/WAPP security menu that appeared on-screen. I have not seen it since thou.,

If you have no issues with starting over with a Factory reset to the device, try that for that initial menu option.

are you trying with ethernet unplugged?

oh boy.

i just unplugged the ethernet and it connected. i did not even need to go to connect it , it just did it with details i had saved from past attempts 

i have now checked  other networks and they work too, so it seems that if th ethernet cable is in then the wifi fails to connect. that cant be correct, but at least i know it works (ethernet overides wifi, but no error is shown)

 

BTW i tried the  quick connect option that generates a QR code and that did not work , the instructions for android were wrong and the QR code does not go anywhere.

thanks for the fast advice.
