I have updated the OS to the newest version last weekend but I'm still having some wifi issues.

I can connect at home to my WEP secure wifi without any problems. And I was able to connect to an open wifi at one resturant, but that's it.

I was in an area with 3 open wifi connections (all fairly low signal though) - and each one gave me a generic "Unable to connect" message.
I have seen this, as well. Although I don't have a definitive answer, my guess would be some sort of authentication based on MAC address, or possibly using a RADIUS server, rather than Pre-Shared Key. Again just guessing.

The other issue is my work wifi. My workplace has an unsecured wifi for clients. I am able to connect to it with my PSP. However, my n810 trys to connect to it and has problems. It says "connected to (name)" but my quick contact list (gmail) repeatedly flashes "unable to connect to one or more accounts" - and although it states I'm connected I have no internet and cannot access the web (acts like there's no connection and goes to the server not found page for any address I try to go to).

I'm not a network wizard so I don't know why my PSP can connect and my n810 can't...

Also, I've only installed a few things on the system (weather, and battlegewled) so I can't imagine it's anything like that causing it.

If you have any suggestions, they are GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks!
