My network consists of a linksys dsl router and a netgear wireless access point WG602 v2.

I have set up the wireless network using WPA, no MAC address filtering.

I do not have DHCP set up so I set the ip, subnet mask, DNS server and gateway up to be the same as my laptop which works fine (the RC9800 has a unique ip)

I can ping the RC9800 from within the network (from laptop on wireless and the dsl router)

The RC9800 network status shows my SSID and status as "Successful connection (WPA encryption)"

I have registerd with the EPG on Philips web site and have an activation key, I enter this and I receive "Unable to connect to activation service"

Anything anyone can recommend i try?

I had the same problem. When I updated the firmware, I never shut off the remote from the tiny off switch in the back. My friend suggested this, I did it, and it connected fine. I guess its similar to rebooting the remote. You shouldn't lose your settings. Even if you didnt upgrade the firmware, this can't hurt.

Ballen, did you successfully manage to download the epg to your RC9800? My SSID shows successful connection, but there is no signal strength.

Thanks,
