Got my PDN last night - I am not a techie - but chose the PDN after reading this forum and knowing I want to use my pad for email etc and am willing to follow your info to improve the functionality of this pad.Right now i need help getting wifi connection - using a MAC router; excellent signal; PDN says "remembered, secured with WPA/WPA2 PSK" - it tries to obtain an IP address - then says "not connected". I briefly gained connection of a neighbors unsecured router...Complication...my router is functional with 2 PC laptops - but I don't know how I can change any of the router settings because the MAC that its set up with has crashed.HELP! I leave on a trip on Monday and bought my PDN so that I could email, read and process/send photos while in europe!!Thx - Sharon

If it is factory version could you just read the newbie thread on this forum (at the top) and hack it, so taht you get vol+- buttons changed to "Menu" and back. 2) What is the firmware on your PDN, is it 07_05 , 07_18 or 07_24. If it is not 07_24 could you please download that and install, as that is the latest firmware version which helps little bit in Wifi and CPU speed is more. (For 07_24 firmware I think "Lawman" has posted it somewhere from where u could download. I'll also try to find the post)
You can try the following. Check your DHCP table and clear it. Then try connecting. That has worked for me. The other thing to try is set your PDN with a static IP and see if it connects.
