I just got the Verizon VX6700 Pocket PC and I am trying to hook-up to my wireless router at home and it is not working. The VX6700 sees the wireless network but it will not connect. I have tried to force connect and the vx6700 states "connecting" and then it stops and states "Available"
Is there some setting I am missing? It there a good website that covers this? The Verizon site does not seem to cover this at all.
I purchased an xv6700 recently as well, and while it had other issues (refurbished) I was able to get it working on our WiFi.
At first though, I had the same issue as you. The first thing you have to check is to be sure that you have the security settings for the connection set correctly for the router you're trying to use. If it's your home router, you'll need to log into it from your computer and verify the kind of encryption and authrization sceme you're using.
After you get these right, if it still refuses to connect (as mine did) hopefully you'll be as lucky as me and find that reseting the wireless router will allow it to finially admit your xv6700 onto the network.
I started by turning off the security (WPA-SPK) and it worked. I then tried a very simple key, "1234", and it worked again. After some tried, I found the key can only be so long and my old key was too long.
