x50v sees Wi-fi net but not internet

I read Ikehiker's guide and briefly got my x50v connected to the internet but now it still sees the local wireless network but won't connect to the internet. I have the setting pointing to the work network and using internet doesn't work either. Power saving is disabled. Not sure what else to do.

Thanks

Got connected. Somehow.

Not sure what I did but it worked. For now, anyhow.

Me too

I have the same problem. I've had my axim for 2 years and have never connected to the internet. I've taken it to th Geek squad, comp usa, and the dell kiosk at the mall, but nobody can help. Other than that I love it. Sure wish I could figure out how to connect to the internet,though. Barb

Try going into the network settings - Start, Settings, Connections (tab), Connections, Set up my Proxy server. On the Proxy server tab, check the top box (This network connects to the Internet) but leave everything else on this page blank. On the General tab, the name should be "My Work Network." OK and then select the Advanced (tab), Select Networks and select "My Work Network" from both of the pull down lists.
