Thanks for further comments, although I am becoming a little lost in the side debate over the bridge issue and how it relates to the problem I have. With regards to the setup manual linked to by Ferretuk, it does not give any greater help than the abridged version I was provided.

I have done some further investigation into whether the USB wireless dongle/adaptor is faulty. Being a specific one built for the Toshiba TV, it has no installation CD. If I try to install it to my PC (Windows), setup fails as there is no set of drivers that can be found to run it.

Before I realised the TV needed a specific Toshiba I had previously bought the high gain Edimax USB wireless adaptor. If I fit this to the TV, the TV setup does not recognise it and thus will not give access to the TV wireless setup (greyed out). This Edimax adaptor works very well when installed to my PC.

With the Toshiba wireless adaptor in the TV, the wireless setup becomes accessible, confirming that the TV does recognise it to the extent it knows the Toshiba adaptor in fitted. So, it must be at least basically working. The blue 'working' light on the adaptor does not light up, probably not until it is fully setup.

When I try to install the Toshiba wireless adaptor to the TV and enter the SSID and passphrase, the reponse is always that "the encryption (EAS or TKIP) and security (WEP or WPA/WPA2) do not match"

I have tried every combination without success and the TP-Link router is set to "Automatic" for AES/TKIP and is set to WPA/WPA2.

The router does have an alternative "Enterprise WPA" which is Radius Server based. I have not tried that as I am not sure what that is and do not want to disrupt connection for all the wireless and cable connected devices using the router.

So, as a next step I will run a temporary Ethernet cable to the TV to see if that side of the TV does work, and which may give the wireless side a kick.

I will revert back when that is done. Thanks again for the various inputs.
