- G and B enabled...not the Auto 108kb setting
- Wep 128 not PSK
- adding a static IP for the MAC address of the device
- Hardware Version V3H1 - Firmware Version V1.0.128_1.0.1 (latest) - plus disabling the proxy - I also called to tell Cingular to disable their services for the internet as i had no need to be charged. Now I'm on to my next quest...I'm frugle (cheap) so now I need is a great set of links that are mobile freindly (news, fun sites) and a set of apps that are not loaded with spyware! Better yet, any customization freebee sites for ringtones, themes.... Heck, send me a package, I'd really appreciate it! pinkys_angels@yahoo.com
Thanks again! |
Thanks, Trademan. I spent a couple of hours banging my head until I took your suggestion, and Viola! I hadn't updated my firmware in years.
As a sidenote, I was having difficulty connecting to a friend's 802.11g two rooms down the hall, until I discovered the problem went away when I got closer to the wifi unit. Either poor reception or poor broadcast could be blamed, not sure which yet, but a good idea to get close until u know.
