Arduino Network causing severe battery drain on WiFi connected devices.

My bad. I downloaded the wrong manual. I have the correct one now. I would go into the router settings and check your LAN settings. What ip/subnet does it show? It should be 192.168.1.1.

I would also check the dhcp server settings for your LAN. Avoid using any (add: static) ips in that range.

edit: Try dhcp on the ethernet shield. Does it pick up an ip?
