My WD live tv media player can see my hub, but when the password/wifi key is entered it just won't connect

iPhone and laptop connects fine but not media player

I have tried at a friends house and connects fine,

Any ideas ? Is it some security on the hub ?

Try googling about problems on BT Hubs, there's LOT'S of people having problems with them, we find the same trying to connect new TV's to the hubs,

I did that already, I couldn't find anything regarding connecting to a wd media player

there are so many wpa-psk settings

I would switch off all security to the router and firewalls on it

try wep and move higher with the settings until you cannot connect

is there an option to put in the MAC address of the WD as a trusted device ?

You indicate that dongle can physically see the hub but are you certain that it is looking at yours? When connecting my Sony TV it saw my hub and a neighbours as well. As this listing was in numerical - alphabetical order mine was not the top of the list although signal strength was an obvious give away.

It's my hub, all my other kit is connected to it without issue

Just reset the homehub first then get the WD Live to detect the new IP address

[rottweiler]

It can already see the hub and ip address it just won't connect

have you done as I suggested

switch off security and firewall in router

add as a trusted device
