Hi all

i want to access internet on my N900 using my broadband connection.when click on my wifi signal from my mobile then it shows unable to get IP from network.

My router has DHCP enabled.

please note

When i use BB on My desktop i have to dial PPoe connection.

so explain me how can i connect to internet using my N900;also can i use internet simultaneously on MY DESKTOP and N900.

hehe see what you mean (from previous thread)
allthough i don't understand the question.....

There could be lots of issues here .... but i assume your problem is simply, you can't get your n900 to connect to your wireless router?

(Possibly connection type? - i had to lower the security settings on mine to get the n900 working)

If you have not "officially" added it to your phone's list of connections, it might be a similar issue to those attempting get access to public WiFi hotspots...?

I think you have to add it via "settings/internet connections/connections/new" before you can use it...

I could be wrong.

does it give errors on connection, or just not able to see it?

try a few tests with your router like:
Removing all passwords quickly - test it as an open wifi router - see if that works?
if it does... add the security until it doesn't - might find it is a specific speed or security type that fails?
