Hello, As mentioned I just purchased the Arduino wifi shield and it will not work…

I am sure this is an easy fix and others have had this problem before.

Received the new wifi shield and plugged it into my Arduino uno R3 pcb. Powered it all up and using the IDE 1.0.5 I loaded the WiFiWebClient sketch, this is what I got back from the serial screen.

Attempting to connect to SSID: mruby

Connected to wifi

SSID: mruby

IP Address: 192.168.1.3

signal strength (RSSI) : -55 dBm

Starting connection to server…

disconnecting from server.

Seems I get connected then get disconnected, Am I missing something?

Thanks, mruby

assuming the router has no MAC access control list, then I’d guess there’s a mismatch in encryption key or type.
