New owner of A500 tablet

[jmcauliffe800]

Hello! I just got my tablet over the weekend and loving it. The only issue I have with it is not being able to connect to the proxy server at work. Any help with this would be great!

Something about android doesn't let either of us do that. I can't get on wifi that has to have a log in. I think it is built into the firmware. Maybe they will fix it in 3.1

Did you root yours yet? Super one click?

uplade3, I can connect to wifi that needs a log in. My home wireless network and work wifi are both id/password protected. You have to enter the id and password on the settings screen. Go to settings -> wifi and networks -> click on the found network that you need and it should give up a pop up to enter in id and password. Then it is saved. I hope this helps.

Thanks! For some reason that doesn't work for me.
