I guess i'm now blessed this site exists. I just bought a used Symbol and I cannot connect to the internet to save my life. The software is setup and everything seems to work except I keep getting a message telling me the card can't get a server assigned IP address. I see my router when I search for Wan's and everything seems to be setup properly. My X5 is running Mobile 2003. I have the DHCP set to auto. Any help would REALLY be appreciated. Thank you so very much

It's probably a setting on the router. If it is a 'G' router, make sure it is set to mixed mode; if you are using security, enter the hexadecimal key in the Axim (not the passphrase); if you have MAC filtering enabled, make sure you've entered the MAC address correctly.

Other possibilities are listed in the WiFi Guide linked from my signature.

It's a "B" router. I'll check all this stuff out.DHCP just won't get an IP for some reason. Thank you so much for the assistance. I'll keep looking or just give up.Strangly enough, I tried it at a public "point" yesterday and it still wouldn't connect.

Has anyone else had the same problem?
