When i turn on Apple TV it says "setting network time and date" but never moves off of that screen. To move off it i press menu and although it then connects to my wireless it tells me my i-tune log in is incorrect !?
I've tried re starting it etc etc but nothing works.
The Apple TV was brought in Sydney at Duty Free - is that why it doesn't work in Indonesia ??
Apple TV
After trying everything else listed in this thread I came across Ken's suggestion and it worked!
Ditto, thanks Ken.
After several days of hard work with my Dlink DIR-655 router, opening ports I was on my way to give up. Eventually I opened DMZ (demilitarized zone) for the Apple TV, letting the Apple TV have no firewall at all. Still nothing worked.After 4-5 frustrating days, I found this thread.
Solution: I set my iPhone as a hotspot, connected the Apple TV to it and now it worked! My wife and I saw our first Netflix movie yesterday. She thinks I'm a genious... 🙂
I still don´t understand why my router settings don´t work. Is it something with my ISP? I don't know, but now it works. The steps I followed are from ike_e's list:
1. Disconnected the Apple TV from wireless network
2. Connected Apple TV to my iPhone hotspot
2. I set country/region on my Apple TV, this forces the Apple TV to download date/time and retrieve location info automatically
3. Once Apple TV running properly, I disconnected Apple TV from iPhone hotspot
4. Re-connected Apple TV to my wireless network
5. Works!
Thanks Ken and ike_e!
