How to wirelessly connect a WD TV Live media player to an Airport WPA2 network?
Via WPS? I tried that with a PIN but my Airport Extreme did not find my WD TV... or vice versa. Any hints as to how to connect Non-Apple 3rd party WiFi ready gear to an Airport WPA2 network would be greatly appreciated. Fanks!

Also the WDTV isn't compatible with WPA2 Professional.
I think you're both on to something regarding the length of my password. Currently it's set up as WPA/WPA2 Personal but the password contains 63 characters, including &%$ etc.
I think I'll have to come up with a a shorter password.
Thanks for your time d00ds
That might ease your mind regarding the lengte of your password. It did for me anyway.
I choose to connect via WiFi on my WDTV Live but after I've entered the 14 character password it asks me to enter an IP addy, because "choosing automatically" won't work.
I'll reduce the length of my password to 10 characters and see how that goes.
Try this:
Wireless Security: WPA2 Personal
Radio Mode: 802.11n only (5GHz) - unless you need to use b/g.
Channel: 36 (Automatic)
Generate a 12 char password.
Multicast Rate: 6 Mbps
Should just work
