If you've lost your routers documentation you'll likely be able to find it on-line. There should be directions for allowing such device to use the router (my router has an little button to push). But even if no directions exist.... you can likely call the routers customer support/tech support. Could it be as simple as a password error?

My does same action (if I understand what you are saying. "yellow flashing when i send a signal from device to x10 until, " you are sending command from phone or tablet to the WM100, correct?)  I think it is normal because everything is working normal. Did you try plugging WM100 and a target Appliance Module in same outlet strip and test, because it sounds like the WM100 PLC commands are not going anywhere.

the module your using in the video looks to be a tm751 if that is correct it will not see PLC it only sees RF

ok then why does the module not turn on with app but with remote and why does the wifi unit register that it has been turned on/off but can not send ....very frustrating..
