Same problem as most and only had phone since Saturday. I can get connected to my router. Well my HTC hero(T-Mobile G2 Touch) says it is connected and got IP. Have got my mobile network turned off. So i know all connections are through the WIFI.

So i click a web page and the first few are fine and load up correctly. Then you click one and the loading bar takes forever and then finally the andriod web page comes up stating it can not connect to web page. Or if i click on andriod market i would get a message that it is not working or on youtube the cannot display message.

I would like to know if anyone has resolved this issue without having to fiddle with there router. Just by configuration of their handset.

Because like me, most people will be mobile and would want to try and connect to different wireless routers. And if you are around a friends house and there iphone connects to their router with no problem, but the only way you will have a chance to connect and use it would be to change settings/upgrading on their router.

I do not know if this is the best solution HTC can come up with to resolve the issue. I would like to connect to every wifi device as the iphone can. How bad does it look if i go over to someones house and say i can not connect to your wifi till they upgrade their firmware.

Does this not have a negative effect on the influencing people to buy the phone!!!! "Maybe i want an iphone or a HTC hero, but wait my friend could not connect to my routing using a HTC Hero. I will get a iphone!"

I will ring T-Mobile tonight and see what they suggest!
