Did you start PIE after your WiFi card was assigned an IP?
I've found on mine that if PIE was started before my WiFi card got an IP, it would give me a 'Page Not Found' error. Just close PIE with switcher bar and start it up again. Also, make sure your card isn't in 'power save' mode, it turns out that that option actually turns the card off. | |||

If you truly have a valid IP number, the 'page not found' problem with the X5 is typically due to not having the proper DNS assigned by the router. Try connecting with an IP number such as Google at http://216.239.39.99/
Check the WiFi How-to linked from my signature for more troubleshooting help. | ||||

The school also might have WEP, because I know some places I get a good signal, but I always get the Page Cannot Be Found, even after I tried my own little "welcome.exe" trick.
Ask the principal for the WEP Password. | |||||
