The Wii U doesn't support my router wireless Security of WPA2-PSK (AES)...

Please help guys
What are my options ?? is there any options ??
 
Change your routers wireless security type. Google the model of router and how to change it. Or use Ethernet cable. Wireless sucks compared to ethernet! :p
 
all i have to say is lol.

even my phone, tv, ancient dongle, tablet and sky + hd box all support this, are you sure the console doesn't? if not then huge fail on their part.

also routers usually have a legacy function which means it will support other types of encryption automatically.
 
Not sure if its the same as my old xbox arcade, but if i search for my wireless name and connect with the right authentication then it won't work.

I have to input the name of it, (search for a non listed one). Then selected WPA2, then enter the password.

Strange, but it works.

Your screenshot says that your router is using WPA2-PSK (TKIP) not WPA2-PSK (AES)... if you change it to AES it'll then work.

But that would be a pain in the ass to do...:(


As I have loads of stuff already setup to use my wireless router with this Security..

3 Desktop PC's
2 laptops
2 skyboxes
4 mobiles phones
Ipod Touch
PS3
PS Vita
Xbox360 (I think I set this up)

Everything supports this apart from this stupid Wii U...:mad: :mad: :mad:

what happens when you click continue?

why cant you hardwire it, do a software update and then try and connect?

If I click continue it connects but only some stuff works..
It really strange how it can connect and let some stuff work but not other stuff..

I can't hardwire it as my wireless router is upstairs..

TKIP is pretty insecure, you should just change it to AES and then check if you don't need to (re)configure your devices, and if so, keep it set to AES.
 
We have a limited locked down guest wireless network for some older handheld consoles that don't support WPA2-PSK (AES) but not all routers have the functionality to do that - you could also setup a second wireless AP.
