Panasonic TV wifi

Recently set up wifi on panasonic txl 37 V20B - brilliant simple set up. However, when tried to connect wirelessly to lap top and mobile phone the SSID of router (Linksys) has changed back to manufacturers name, and will not connect. With phone and laptop stating authentification failed. Connected laptop via ethernet to router, and tried to repair/set up wireless again - and yet still will not connect (have re-entered password)...any ideas why the TV connection seems to have made other wifi connections impossible??

try switching router off for 30 seconds

you didnt switch on MAC addresses only for wi-fi ? so the MAC address must match in a secure list ?

every router will call it something different

if you switch on windows sharing the TV will see all media files on your laptop

I was lucky as my TV beside the router and phone line and just used an ethernet cable

the only thing else is if you changed the encryption style

like WEP to WPA-PSK 2 for example for the TV to work ? you have to tell the laptop to change encryption type
