New Internet Service Not Connecting To My Nokia N800...
 
I just moved and signed-up for Verizon FiOS.

I have Wi-Fi throughout my home and my wife's Nokia 770 is being recognized by the Wi-Fi in the home and she is able to connect just fine.

My Nokia N800, on the other hand, will not connect to the Wi-Fi. Is there something that I can do to get it to connect to the Wi-Fi in the home?

Thank you.

More info -
Does it see the network when you scan for connections under wifi setup?
What version of the OS?
Does it connect to your router?
Does it try to connect to the net?
Is the network protected? (wep etc)
Have you asked your wife hook you up? uh, with wifi :)

I am running Diablo.
It tries to connect, but it doesn't ever find my Wi-Fi.
My network is not locked.

Can you get to a free hotspot? Like a library or starbucks?
Try from there, with both the 770 and 800.
/edit - Did it ever work?
What brand wifi router?
What protocaol? b? g? N?
I'm not that familiar with Verizon's FIOS intalls. My Cox just basically provides me a cable, I bought everything else.

gemniii42's last question is important. You will need to rule out hardware fault first.

Is the network visable?

Maybe I'll head to Panera and see if I can connect to their WiFi.

It does not show up in my list of available options at home.
