Well, I love mine and my two daughters have ordered one each so we can all communicate on holiday (sad I know!). However, I still can't get on our wanadoo wireless broadband at home, we keep getting network connection error. The tablet appears to be connected, but won't display pages or do anything. When daughter takes it to boyfriend's house, she can get on internet so it must be something to do with our settings, but no way can we find out what is the problem - anyone have any suggestions??0

I'm still waiting for my tablet to arrive (ordered from Play.com), but do have the same problem recently with any wireless device I've tried to connect to my Orange Livebox (the same as your Wanadoo one).
Have you pressed the small number 1 button on the back of the livebox to put it into paring mode. I tried this but just get the same as you do.0 -

Make sure you press the pairing mode button and type the wep/security key exactly the same as on the bottom of the livebox making sure its in the same case as it shows, which if I remember rightly from setting one up last is capitals.

Right....Found out reason my WIFI connection was pants...The internal aerial was missing from the N770!!! GASP!! I'm very techy and dismantled the unit following the instructions on
http://www.uselessinfo.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/dismantlen770.htm
Having looked on this - I noticed my aerial wasn't there!!! So, I soldered a piece of fm antenna wire on where I figured the aerial would connect to the main circuit board..re-assembled - powered on and -hay presto - LOADS of signal from my WIFI, pics up next doors and the house at the back!
NOW - I'm not saying that this is the same for everyone who has issues with WIFI range...but it's fixed mine! I suggest anyone else with this issue returns the unit or contacts NOKIA for a better solution! I guess they maybe aware some units have gone out without the aerial in as it seems that the internet community is aware of lack of range on some N770's.
IF YOU TRY THIS - YOU COULD REALLY SPAM UP YOUR N770 AND AS SUCH - IF YOU DO - I AINT RESPONSIBLE FOR IT..OK?0 -
Some people also reported improvements when lowering the channel selection on their routers (apparently 770 not happy with higher channels). Also interference seems to affect other devices (read about some more prominent interference with Netgear routers).Do I want it? ......Do I need it? ......What would happen if I don't buy it??????0

Just to let you guys know, i got mine from expansys last week and my wi-fi range is SHOCKING! I literally have to be in the same room as my router for it to work as soon as I start to walk away it disconnects.... i've requested an RMA from expansys and re-ordered from play as it seems to have dissapeared from expansys site now...
Hope the play one works ok!0 -

My router is through 2 brick walls and my 770 is as fast as my laptop when side by side.
Anyone found any useful 3rd party apps yet?0
