PRC-100 not connecting - I have tried all the prescriptions from prior postings...

2014-01-02 by Jason Glover

New friends,

I have a DKV Mark IV, and I am moderately tech savvy, but I just can't reconnect the PRC to the DKV. I recently installed an ethernet port next to the piano (Dec 31) and the piano worked as of Dec 31, but after rebooting (the manual said to reboot before installing the ethernet cable), it refuses to connect to the PRC-100.

I have carefully perused and applied most of the fixes to this topic, and I am checking to see if there is something more I can do:


My PRC-100 comes on, and works, but can't find the dkv wireless lan. Even when it is inches away.

However, i can see the DKV network broadcasting from my ipad (as athomik and kevin g have suggested, to be sure the I/O wireless is broadcasting).

I have applied Carol's patient rebooting process as well, including a "30 min off time" for the DKV, as I once read in the manual.

I have turned off a nearby WAP (wireless access point).

One tidbit, I am using very very old software...i havent' upgraded in at least 6yrs. It sounds like the only path to an upgrade is via a cd-rom...which Yamaha support is sending me(open to other suggestions). I'm not convinced the upgrade will work, since the PRC-100 has to be assigned to the DKV in the first place.

Can anyone lend any help? One post suggested using "dkvbrowser" on a pc to force the pc to be the controller - how can i find this?

Any previous folks with problems get theirs solved (GregB post was very similar to my issue)...?

Thanks in advance,

Jason
