Greetings :-)

Problem in a nutshell:
I'm trying to use my Nexus 7 to connect to my TP-Link Wireless adapter, through the TP-Link adapter's SoftAP mode [on]. On connecting, my Nexus 7 manages to move past authentication, but gets stuck on the "obtaining IP address" part. The Nexus tries several times to authenticate & obtain IP address, but fails.

A bit more info:
The TP-Link Adapter is connected to my upstairs PC and provides a good signal to the PC, from the downstairs router, which supplies the Internet. The downstairs router is a brand new TL-WDR8980 N600. This router is working well, the wireless adapter is working well and the Nexus 7 is working well. I can't figure out though, why the Nexus can't obtain an IP address from the Adapter?

Note: My Nexus 7 is able to connect to the router without this issue, but not the SoftAP adapter. My Nexus 7 also connects quite happily to my TV through its SoftAP or Wi-fi Direct connection. So I'm hoping it's a trivial fix? :-)

Regards
Digi
