I just received my EZ-Robot
When powered - I can see the EZ-Robot in my Wi-Fi list
But when selected - it will not connect
Airplane mode is "off" and Wi-Fi button is shown on

Try restarting your router and pc and try again...

whits robot did you order if i may ask.congrats
I'll refer you to the tutorial however I wont leave it at that.
From the sounds of it you are doing everything right. There are no passwords, no filters, no special tricks to connecting to the WiFi network broadcast by the EZ-B V4. It should be just a case of select, connect, go.
Are you sure you aren't connected? Does it report an error in Windows when you try to connect? Does it just time out? Or does it connect but put a small ! or * in the symbol?
One thing to note is it will give a warning about limited network as there is no internet connection (at least that is what I read from others - personally I never connected my EZ-B V4 to my PC via WiFi, I changed the settings with my tablet).
After you try to connect can you access the web page at 192.168.1.1?
What is really weird is that I can connect with the EZ-Robot with my Iphone as well as my work computer which is running Windows 7
My new laptop which is running Windows 8.1 - see the EZ-Robot in the WI-FI list - but will not connect - it states "Can't connect to this Network"
I am able to connect my new laptop to my router
Is there a security issue that could cause this - with my Norton?
P.S. I purchased "SIX"
if can connect with your new laptop to home network.
then you need to click on network settings then turn off auto connect for home network.
then you, can connect to ezb with limited networking.

Norton may be the problem (it usually is a huge problem for many other things - my advice, remove it and replace it for avast or avg - both are free and better).
Try disabling Norton and trying to connect.
My Acer tablet runs full blown Windows 8.1 and connects without issue so it shouldn't be anything to do with it being Windows 8.1
There is no security on the WiFi broadcast from the EZ-B V4 so there should be no reason why it cannot connect if it can see the network.
Avast is good.
You could try to connect with a phone or other device to the ezb v4 wifi network, and then connect to the 192.168.1.1 webserver. It would then allow you to configure the v4 to connect to your network from your phone. I have configured a couple of the v4's that way.
Hey guys,
We saw the same issue with Avast on a laptop here in the shop today, we disabled the anti-virus software and could connect no problem after that.
