first of all, im a real newbie at this sort of stuff, so bear with me, i have purchased one of these wifi max's and am having problems. I have connected the wifi max to the pc and have installed the software that came with it, no luck to connect to it. I have also shared my internet connection, but still no luck. in my network connections i have a wireless network connection, it says"not connected". I have heard about ZDlan and everythin and do not know what they are, i have a broadband connection with a motorola modem, are there any suggestions you can help me with, please.

for the people that are still having problems try this out.
1) go to your zydas main page screen then make sure its set to access point. Then go to more settings. Then set the bridge adapter to the one you use to connect to the internet with.
2) go to your all network connections and locate the following, the wifi max adapter and the one you use to connect to the internet.
3) highlight both of them and only those 2 then right click one of them and choose bridge connect.
4) sign on and play

Hey, this might be a stupid question but is there a way of conecting your nintendo DS with the PSP Wifi Max because it has that option on the installation CD.

Sorry if this has all ready been answered, i apologize ahead of time if it has but i really need to figure this out, ive been messing with it for almost 6 days now.

I am having a problem with my WiFi Link(Mayflash made)

My playstation 3 picks up my WiFi Link thats in my USB of my PC but i cant get around this 80710102 DNS Error

Because if auto select everything it wont find my IP and time out and if i manually do it then it DOES find my IP but gives me that DNS error about couldnt communicate with the server.

I'm not sure how to get around this and havent found anyone that knows either :(

This post is wayyyyyyy over due. After about a year now by accident kinda i managed to make my wifi max work with my psp and ps3. its not the fastest but online play is pretty good.

The main problem i was having was the ip adress thing. I worked out that the zydas software was not bridging and i could not make it bridge the connections either.

Here's how to solve it.

plug in the dongle
go to network connections.
find the your internet connection within there on open properties.
Zydas should be running at this point, will not work otherwise.

now the important bit.
on your internet connection go to the advance tab and select allow all user and tick all the boxes.
then under home network connection select the wifimax connection that is set up on your pc, it should now work.

Note this method can also allow ps3 users to connect to the internet without wifimax via their pc by doing the same but selecting the etherenet port.

please reply if this worked. i don;t think i explained it very well.

I have Vista, and after several days of working with it, and threatening to take it back, I stumbled upon this site. Followed these directions, and it works perfectly.

We have the exact same issue down to the Motorolla modem. It's just not working...I read that you had to bridge the connections or something so that the wifi max would use your Internet connection, but that's not working. I'm using Vista and I keep getting an error. Everything is installed correctly too. In Network Connections the wifimax shows up as a wireless connection and it just says "Not Connected". The wifi max is "connected" according to it's software, though. Anyone know how to fix this?

hey, whoever got wifimax, its better if you return it and just buy a wireless router because i dont know if it woudld be easier for me to install it now but i heard its very difficult and you should just return it. i was on this thread somewhere with the name Wifipsp but i was so noob at the time i thought the the mods were normal people and were posting threads and real mods were closing them so i made a thread named that guy and said he is retarded or somthing.

anyways yeah you guys should return it.
