I have just upgraded to Android 2.1 on Orange(UK). When I connect to wifi (home WEP and open), it says I am connected - shows IP address etc, but nothing actually works through the wifi - can't synch Exchange email, can't download from market, won't even update location on Google Maps. If I switch wifi off everything works fine over mobile network, but that is insustainable due to data charges.
Anybody got any ideas?
