FIXED - Mods please remove - SPV M3100 IE Mobile wifi connection problem

[Guest]

Don't know what happened in the end - but I can now connect with my local wifi network.

I recently had to replace my Hermes (an Orange branded M3100) because of a problem with the screen. Upon recieving the replacement I configured it to connect to my home wifi network through a Netgear WPN824 router. I recently tried to access the internet via IE Mobile only to get an odd messaging telling me that IE could not connect using the connection and I should go to settings to make a change. :)

I know I had switched wifi on.

I know I was connected - I also have Skype installed and that connect perfectly well.

I know that I have provided full access on my router and via my firewalls to the device.

IE Mobile tries to connect via 3G even though I thought I had disabled 3G.

Can anyone suggestion anything to force IE mobile to use the wifi connection or else a setting that I should look at?

This is my 3rd M3100 the previous 2 connected and worked fine with the internet I'd hate to have to send yet another one back... :D

Any advice would be welcome.
