I just need to get the proxy setup correctly, I have used the proxy that they say works (it works for my computer) but not my PDA. Do you have to enter anything other than the proxy address and the port number? (that is all I was given).
For your proxy settings, do you have the checkbox for "This network connects to the internet" checked?

Also, internet connectivity is largely based on DNS. I assume that your desktop is pulling a DHCP address that also has the DNS server that should be used. Check your PDA to see if your pulling a DHCP address and not using a static address. Go into your wifi interface settings and make sure that you are using a server assigned IP address.
