Hiya :-)

I have a TP-LINK WR1043ND router, which is awesome for all devices, but recently got nokia lumia 800 and can't get it to wirelessly sync with Zune or with Tube Pro windows app. Have googled and done what can ...

The router had assigned an ip address to nokia, but labelled as 'unknown' ... Zune recognises nokia as 'NOKIA Lumia 800' ... saw wireless MAC filtering section and entered in nokia's mac, assigned ip and actual name Zune uses ... enabled/allowed, saved, rebooted pc ... same result [new manual nokia setup hadn't showed up in dhcp clients list, as I'd wondered if it might].

The 4 clients listed in dhcp list are ipad, 2 pc's with different assigned ip's [I have one, which is new, from a few months ago], and the nokia which is labelled as 'unknown'.

Saw advice during googling re to use static ip for nokia's mac address, give it name recognised by Zune software, and that that would work. But hasn't.

Bit boggled by settings re router, and, as everything else between nokia and pc is working great, am a bit confused re this Zune issue, plus I can't sync the Tube Pro app back to pc either.

In current connected wireless stations numbers, nokia shows up. There are 2 user accounts, admin/read and write, guest read only ... might that have something to do with why I can't sync? Bemused!

Would much appreciate any help.
Best regards, Cat
