Actually, connecting is not the problem. When I turn the wifi on it recognizes and connects (my network name is correctly displayed on my homescreen and the wifi icon in the top bar gets the 'connected' symbol) and everything "looks" fine until I try to load an internet page or collect my email. Then I get an error message.
If I'm trying to load an internet page it says "locating..." for quite awhile then it says "Alert The page cannot be found. Check the name and try again." This happens no matter which of my favorite bookmarks I try.
If I try to get my email it says "connecting..." for awhile then it says "The following errors occurred while sending and receiving mail: Unable to connect to the incoming mail server. Verify that the server name is correct and then try again."
This has been going on for about a week now. I've soft reset my phone several times since it began doing this AND I've unplugged my router, pressed the reset button on the back for 15 seconds, left it unplugged overnight, plugged it back in in the a.m., pressed the 'on' button and it still won't let my phone access the web and email. It does however let both our laptops wirelessly connect and function just fine. It's only the phone that won't work right. AND, to make this more perplexing...my phone connects to wireless networks elsewhere just fine. It works at work, at the cafe, off somebody else's network down the street...JUST NOT MINE!
What up????? I've never been able to set up a router on my own so I haven't messed around with it. And this all just happened one day. Nothing changed anywhere that I know of. Just 'boom'...no more access at home.
