wifi problem drviing me nuts!

[Guest teeki]

hi all... i am new to this forum and straight off i have a problem i need addressing. i have just purchased a mda vario 2. all is fine with the phone but i cannot seem to connect to the internet or msn messenger via wifi. the wifi connection has picked up my router fine, and is showing that i am 'connected'. but for some reason when i try to open up a page on the internet explorer i get the message 'page not found' ;) . also if i try to log in to my msn messenger i get a message saying 'service failed because the service is not responding'. what is goin on! any advice will be much appreciated guys, this is really driving me up the wall!

cheers

Make sure you are getting a valid IP address from your wifi access point (eg something like 192.168.x.x and not 169.254.x.x). If you're not, then check your wep and mac filtering.

If you are, then make sure on the device in connections, network cards, that the wireless card is set to connect to the internet.

i just tried that, it aint working. i really dont know what it could be. should i delete the wifi connection and set it up again? maybe i done something wrong somewhere.
