Setting up a wdtv live without a network

I have my wdtv live at a farmhouse that had no internet connectivity or router. But when setting up it keeps asking to dtect a wireless network and I can’t seem to bypass this step.

Any ideas?

if you mean the “Connecting Network” status … i don’t of a way of “bypassing it”  … but to cancel or interupt it (ie stop it looking)

press the “Setup” button on the WD Remote … then press the blue “Home” button and you’re good to go.
