I've had issues with WPA2 on such things.

Ask Netgear about that at http://www.dlink.com/products/?pid=570

But here's the deal. I go with what works versus what should work. I leave folk that demand "it should work" to call it in. That is I would take the router defaults, fall back to WPA and try one more time.

The neat part about that bridge is you can test other gear on it.

I tried setting the router back to default and then using WPA2 for security still won't let veira cast work.

Back to its maker for fix or refund. Sad.
