New user of N810. I bought it to replace my 624 MHz Dell Axim X30 and want to be able to surf the internet and check e-mail etc. at least as fast at the X30. While the N810 is optimized for full internet access, I am finding it grindingly slow when accessing through my home wifi network. I have been reviewing/searching the posts on this forum and have not found anyone with the exact same problem. I have re-formatted my internal memory card as suggested. I have tried restricting the number of connections, etc. as suggested (didn't make a difference so I set it back). I have also extended virtual memory and browser cache to the max values.

The symptoms are that accessing websites such as maemo.org or other websites; downloading software or updates, etc. is SO SLOW that either I eventually give up or the device times out.

Here is the rub: I went to my daughter's house and used their wireless and it seems to be okay. Therefore, it must be something in either (a) my home setup or (b) something about the way the N810 interacts with my home setup (c) or my ISP.

My home setup in order of connection from the video cable at the wall: (1) cable modem (for Comcast broadband); (2) telephone adapter (for VOIP phone); (3) wireless router.

One thing I have noticed: many connections on my wireless router (between 4 and 10, depending on how many computers are powered on in the house) with sometimes as many as 3 identified as "null". I know that the N810 is one of these (and could be the others as well?) although I am not sure why it doesn't identify it as "Nokia N810" as that is what I assigned it when setting it up. (we have 4-5 windows PCs; a couple of Macs; couple of laptops; WII, Playstation3 but not all on at the same time - the Wii likes to connect itself to the internet when in standby so I have powered it off; Playstation is off; even when we get down to only 2 pcs plus the N810 and I reset the wireless I still have a very sluggish connection)

I could reconfigure the network as an experiment to get the router closer to the broadband but I don't think that is the problem. Each of the three boxes coming in from the wall have a hardware firewall enabled but I don't think that is the problem either; at least this isn't a problem for any of the other devices.

I am wondering if I am missing something in the way that the N810 interacts with the wireless router that would cause the router to lock up periodically (seems to work for 10 seconds then stop for 60 seconds or more; work for 5 seconds and then stop for a couple of minutes, etc.) Or, the router could be bad - there have been problems since I got the N810 with losing connection on some of the other boxes.

Any suggestions? Should I go back to the configuration in which I limited the number of connections on the N810?

Sorry for such a long newb first post (but at least I have searched and re-searched the forums over and over).
