With the trick i told before now the Dm7080Hd seems to be stable during Wi-Fi huge files transfer. Now it don't crash anymore.
But is still a lot slower than old Dm7020Hd with black Wi-Fi dongle. I started transfer of a 16gb Mkv from my Nas to Dreambox internal hard drive. Started the transfer this morning at 7:30am. It finished this afternoon at 15:30pm.
After many experiments i reduced the Wi-Fi shutter lag to the minimum.
First i selected in the FritzBox in the radio section Wifi N+G instead of N+G+B. Then i DISABLED both Wi-Fi coexistence with other Networks and "optimize for wireless Tv" options. With these sectings on the FritzBox and Dm7080Hd i can see many MKV in streaming even with high bitrate.
But i repeat that with the Dm7020Hd connection worked well even with these options enabled.
You should check all Wi-Fi configuration between Dreambox and FritzBox. However i hope you will enhance Wi-Fi stability in future experimental images.

Perhaps i found the problem: old black Wi-Fi dongle connected to the 2.4Ghz (Wi-Fi N) Band with 20Mhz channel space while new white Dm7080hd Wi-Fi dongle connects to 40Mhz channel space. With 20mhz channels connection was very stable. Is there a way to force connection to 20Mhz space?
Dm7080hd Wi-Fi options are very poor compared to old Dm7020hd enigma 2 ones.
Also an important detail. If i disable on the FritzBox the option i found in the radio channel section "Wi-Fi networks co-existence " mbit/s with the router rise up but connection is still slow.
My Wi-Fi space is very busy; i receive more that 20 Networks in the space where the Dreambox is located but connection with dm7020hd was very stable.
Is it something i can send you (log file? But it does not crash with green screen; it simply hangs in loop when i try to reboot the decoder) for reproducing wifi problems?
Alles anzeigenHi,
when you now don't can test with the dm7020hd at the exact same place where your dm7080 is located now.. and exactly with the same antenna setup at your router... you can't prove if this is realy a problem of the dm7080 or the new wifi stick.
Wifi is always a gambling. One of your neighours get a new router or changed the antenna settings and now all can be different to the old situation.

Ok i understand it can be a problem of near wifi networks (i receive more than 15Wifi network but i have a repeater also marked Fritz).
But that don't explain why DM7080HD crashes (it crash only on the wireless connection side; decoder still works after crash but it hangs when i try to reboot it). I can't complete transfer of big MKV files. And as i've told before that was an issue of 7020HD with early experimental images.
It should be great if you can improve 7080HD stability in Wifi, then i can at least transfer mkv on the internal hard drive and watch them!
At the present almost all mkv i have on my nas shutter in streaming!
The DM7080HD is placed in the exact place of my old 7020HD with the same router! Difference is only wifi dongle (i'm using the white small one bundled with DM7080HD).
Alles anzeigenOk i will give you more details:
First i have a NAS (Synology DS214Play) connected with CABLE (1Gbit/s) to the FritzBox! NAS is configured for sharing NFS folders (/volume1/video folder). Fritz Box is obviously connected to the DM 7080HD through wifi N!
As usually with DM7020HD and DM7080HD i can watch MKV inside /video folder in STREAMING!
But now with 7080HD i can watch only 720p MKV because 1080p MKV and 720p MKV with higher bitrate shutter!
And another detail: i download MKV with the Synology DS214play! Then i've configured the hard drive inside 7020HD/7080HD as a "NETWORK DRIVE UNIT" in Windows 8.1 so i can transfer directly very big MKV (more than 12Gb) to the Hard Drive inside the Dreambox (Hard drive is a WD Caviar Green 3TB).
Problem is that if i start the transfer Dreambox connection crashes after a while; 7080HD after a while losts the connection! And if i try to reboot the DM7080HD it gives me the BLACK SCREEN with "rolling gears"! I have to disconnect che power with the back switch.
This defect (Dreambox that hangs after a while during wifi huge file transfer) is the same defect that "had" DM7020HD with "OLDER OE 2.0 Experimental images". With last experimental images OE 2.0 for 7020HD this bug was fixed and the transfer procedure was fine....even with multiple very big MKV!
In December, when i still had 7020HD i transferred 3 MKV for a total of 46GB directly on the Dreambox internal hard drive without problems or connection lost.
If i try to transfer even a 6/7GB mkv now inside the internal hard drive of my brand new 7080HD it doesn't complete! Moreover transfer rate speed is very very slow!
And NO, i have not tried using old DM7020HD black wifi dongle because i have sold my DM7020HD!

I hope you fix this soon on incoming Dreambox OS2.2 experimental images! At present i can't watch many of my MKV with DM7080HD cause i can't transfer or streaming them!
Ever tried the dongle of the 7020hd?
Insisting and Repeating doesn't solve the problem, I'm sorry.
I could tell you:
My throughput is fine, i'm having a fritz!box, too.
The Kernel is different. It's newer/other drivers but we don't write the WiFi drivers...
But it still doesn't help tracking down the issue, does it?

Hi Reichi..
The soft of DM7080HD doesn't support at all wifi encryption .. The trouble isn't hard.. the stick wlan works fine.. I tried it without encryption it works very good in DM7080HD.. it also works very well on my computer using encryption.. the problem lies in the software that must be upgraded to support encrypted wifi..
Try shortening wifi password and choose no special symbols!
Dreambox OS 2.2 DO SUPPORT, WEP, WPA and WPA2 encryption; the bug is with long password with special symbols! If the password is too long it will not connect!
Please try placing the stick on the outside. The Strength indication may be inaccurate or even wrong.
Tried! Placed the dongle outside the Dreambox 7080HD! Same behaviour!
I insist it's not a problem of signal! My dreambox is placed at less of 40 centimeters to the Fritzbox router but there's a thin cement wall (4cm) in the middle!
I repeat that with 7020HD and the "black dongle" (bundled with V1) i had 40Mbit of througput! With 7080HD and its dongle i don't reach 5Mbit/s and the signal is maximum. I think there's something different in the source code between Enigma 2 and Dreambox OS 2.2 regarding Wifi part. You are the one you know that!
Hi Reichi
The adapter i'm using is the white one branded "Dreambox" i found in 7080HD's box! The adapter is linked to the internal Dreambox USB port but signal is 100% (detected from Dreambox menu).
And i confirm that trasfer rate is slow: 4/5 mbit/s while with 7020HD (and its black V1 big adapter) wifi i reached 40Mbit/s minimum.
My modem router is a Fritzbox 7490 and Dreambox is linked with N protocol!
MKV 1080p Wifi streaming is not usable with actual release of Dreambox OS 2.2. It's too slow! I hope you fix this soon!
It's a troughtput bug because with 7020HD it worked flawlessly!
One more detail: signal rate is 100% with my 7080HD and it's wifi dongle, so it's not a problem of low signal! Simply mbit/s are too low.
I would also to report that with DM7080HD and the wifi dongle trasnfer speed is much slower than my old DM7020HD.
I unserstand OE2.2 is still in beta stage but i hope it will be improved soon.
I confirm this is a bug!
Tried the WPS thing.....no way!
I succesfully connected to my home wifi network shortening the password! The Dreambox OS OE 2.2 doesn't accept network password longer than 25/30 symbols!
Also i would like to report a GSOD (Green Screen of Death) crash: DM7080HD has a GSOD after i have installed "Network Broswer" extension and i have launched it!
I will try tonight with the WPS button on Fritz Box!
Reichi
The PSK password window appears! The problem is that, after i've inserted the password (right password) nothing happens.
While if i insert a short password that it's wrong and i press ok the PSK password window closes and it tells me the password is wrong!
But with a long password nothing happens after i've pressed ok!
Hello
I just bought a brand new DM7080HD!
I mounted the latest experimental image OE2.2 dated 20 01 2015.
When i setup a network connection with wifi dongle i noticed that if the password of my router (FritzBox 7490) is composed by a lot alfanumerical letter or symbols and i press ok, the Dreambox OS does nothing. It tells nothing! And it does not connect. Even if the password is correct or if it is wrong it tells nothing and it doesn't connect.
While if i insert a short passoword (wrong) it gives me a feedback (CODE FAILED).
Is it a bug?
I must connect through wifi; i can't connect with a network cable, so for me wifi is essential.
One more note: if i disable wifi encryption the DM7080HD connects correctly (free open wifi network).
I owned a DM7020HD and it worked perfectly with a long alphanumerical password.
Thank you!
