Guest Xiaobaitu Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 1) Do you get a valid IP address (ie 192.168.x.x)?

Where i can find this settings, can you please lead me to this point ? cos i cannot find anything similar, except in SETTINGS>CONNECTIONS>CONNECTIONS>ADVANCED>SELECT NETWORK> here there's 2 spaces where i can choi Internet, but even if is settled on INTERNET, I've try the EDIT (under the frames) and found no settings in GENERAL and in MODEM, i found, under PROXY SETTINGS it is thicked only the "This network connects to the Internet" If this is what has to be settled correctly don't know anymore what should i do, and i drive mad cos seems i clearly have the WIFI connected ! as the 2 arrows on the top bar are fixed, not continuosely searching...
