Make sure the wifi dongle is inserted prior to powering up the mixer. It won't work if the mixer is on already, and then the dongle is inserted.

If you are connecting to your router via ethernet cable, the latest update will require you to boot your router first and then startup the presonus.  I don't like using the dongle it seems to have a huge delay in controls compared with connecting directly to the router.  But previous to the latest update I had my router and mixer on the same plug strip and turned them on both at the same time and once the router was booted it would provide a proper IP to the router.  Ever since the latest update however, there must be some timeout or something on the mixer now. Because by the time the router is booted, the mixer has already assigned itself some un-usable IP address - very annoying since it didn't use to do this.  But at least it's an easy fix, just boot the router first, wait for it to fully startup and then start the mixer.
