Wifi on Siglent SDS1104X-E; SSID still an issue?

(1/2) > >>

ADJohnson:
I couldn't find an answer to this particular question and it might be a bit too specific to get one but here goes....

I know I need to use a TL-WN725N dongle for wi-fi - I'm not aware of any others that work, certainly the existing dongle I have doesn't - but on Siglent NA there is this article:

https://www.siglenteu.com/operating-tip/wifi-performance-is-slow-or-does-not-connect-well-to-my-network/

It is for the SDS2000X-E rather than my scope but the implication is that it is the wi-fi dongle that doesn't work well with high performance routers like Orbi RBR50.  Guess what router I have?!  The option it suggests is an IOGear GWU637 but the specs on that say it isn't suitable for a mesh network.  In any case, it's a bit expensive really.

Has anyone tried the TL-WN725N dongle on a mesh network on this model scope/SDS1000X-E series and can confirm it works?

Thanks

Andrew

mesh is not equal mesh, can't tell you about others, but it does works on Ubiquiti Unifi mesh.

ADJohnson:
Thanks - well at least that's some potential.  It's only a fiver, so if it doesn't work it's not a big loss.  When I get hold of one I'll update this message but in the meantime if anyone else has any experience I'd be interested to know.

ADJohnson:
With the adapter plugged in, a scan for networks lists those available but I can't connect to the one I need.  The SSID has a space in it which I believe is a known issue?  I can't change the SSID just for the scope as everything else in the house would stop working.  So the answer to my original question is I suspect it will work, just that it can't work with my configuration at the moment.  Well, it was only £5 and maybe they will fix the problem in the future.

I've gotten my scope to connect to my LAN using a VONETS WiFi bridge - but when I go to set the password it appears there was already one set. My SSID has many spaces in it, so I don't believe that's an issue with the WiFi bridge configuration.
Does anyone have the default password for the scope?
