problems connecting android tablet to virgin media wireless - HELP ME

asandwhen

I am having problems connecting my new Teclast p76ti tablet to my virgin media wireless - I have the Virgin Home Hub router.

I can see the router on my new tablet but when I try to connect to it it just drops out.
I can also see BT Openzone which connects fine.

When I disable the security settings on my router my tablet connects to it but I still cant access the internet.

Can anyone help me?

try entering the TCP/IP details manually, works for me when I have connection issues

Sorry im not very technical - how do I do this on Android?

I have now managed to get it connected to the internet but only when the security settings on my wireless are disabled.

I'd start again

Go into the wifi settings on the tablet and select your router and select 'forget connection' [or similar]
Switch off the tablet
Switch the router off for 5 mins and then back on again
Then power the tablet back up
