I finally got it working.
I almost figured it out on the first page of this topic but I did not test every wireless mode.
So with my Linksys EA8500 the only wireless modes that work for my Aura are the 2.4GHz "802.11b Only" and "802.11g Only".
The modes that do not work with my Aura are "Mixed", "802.11b/g" and "802.11n Only" and the 5ghz band is not seen at all.
I wish I had tested every mode to begin with but unfortunately I only tried ones that did not work.
What really threw me off is that my Aura HD has no problem with the 2.4GHz "Mixed" mode that I have been using.
Weird. My router on the 2.4Ghz is set to compatible mode 802.11b,802.11g, and 802.11N.
Checking in my router, it says my Aura is connect using N. Maybe a Compatibility issue between the Aura and your Routers chipsets? I don't know, any who glad you got it working!
