the issue could be that you are trying to use "wep" and the tablet will not work with "wep" see if you can try another security configuration like "wpa2" on your router

I have a MID 7" tablet with Android 2.3OS. It was a gift for my mother and she loved it. Now there is a problem. The Android keyboard will not come up. Not in email or the browser or anything. I went to the keyboard settings and it showed as being selected. I can't figure this one out. Any suggestions?

The only android cappable to reproduce Youtube videos is the version 2.2. problably you have version 2.1 or 1.6. you need a thinrd party software to reproduce youtube videos

We just got a MID 7" Android tablet last night as a welcome gift from a presentation. Brought it home, charged it overnight, and the brightness level is poor. We went to Settings through Menu and the brightness level is turned all the way up . My husband said last night when he turned it on, it was brighter (before we did the charging). Help! It's too difficult to read the screen.

When I try to go to the appInstaller, I get the following "/mnt/sdcard/". Another forum recommending downloading the Market apk, so I did and now I have the icon for it, but I get an "error, must close and try again" when I click on it. Also, when I click on the "AppInstaller", the same URL is there, with the Market listed beneath it, but when I click on it, it only asks if I want to uninstall it. I'm at a loss as to how to get the Market or appinstaller to work. Looking for last minute advice before I ship this back...

Hi, any help would be greatly appreciated- I have bought 3 of these for the kids. The android market search function mainly comes up with chinese results even though we are seraching in english- i cant find any well known apps like angry birds on there either- I have contacted the seller and they have been very unhelpfull- any ideas, like can i change the search functions somehow or updaye/ reinstall the opperating system or android market shortcut? also I cant work out how to connect it to the pc as it only seems to take an sd card- was thinking of accessing android market that way- is it possible to add it to the home network somehow for file sharing so we can put music ect on there? im not very tech savvy so thanks for any help you can give :)

what did you do to fix it? I just got a tablet and when i open up connections it says it is connected to my network and even gives my network name. If i go to the internet it allows me to go to different sitess. When I try to open Android Market it says I have no connection
