I have an Apple Airport Time Capsule with version 7.6.4 firmware. We also have a sony bravia KDL-32EX420 TV with a Sony UWA BR100 wireless LAN Adapter. Now the TV can see the network but will not connect. I have tried all variations of the security (WPA2 and WPA/WPA2 on the airport and WPA/WPA2-PSK (AES) and WPA/WPA2-PSK (TKIP)).
The TV did connect with our old Belkin router.
Can anyone give me any advice.

Wireless name.. short, no spaces pure alphanumeric?? eg TC24ghz
Give 5ghz a different name.. TC5ghz
Start with no security.
Use fixed wireless channels.. 11, 6, 1 for 2.4ghz.. the Sony adapter I don't think will use 5ghz. so just try each of those channels.. they are the only non-overlapping.
If it fails.. go back to 7.6.1 firmware.. there are issues on the later ones..
No luck.. plug the belkin back in and set it in WAP mode or wan bypass mode.. just for the sony.

Just retried with a couple of the suggestions from above. Realised that the TV says it can find the wireless device but not the local network. Am now wondering if the LAN adapter is stuffed.
Check the IP that the TV gets.. make sure it is the correct IP for the network.. correct router address and correct DNS. It has to be all of those things right to fully work.. although it should be fine for local lan without router and dns.
Ping the TV from another device.. that shows if it is avalable on the network..
