Hi Tom, welcome to Android Forums!

Can you confirm that you're unable to connect to any data service such as web sites or email servers? In Settings/Wireless & networks/Wi-Fi settings, does Wi-Fi indicate "Connected to <your_SSID>"?

It says it is connected to my network and i can go surfing on the net and all the normal stuff but when i tryed to look at a video on facebook of a friend it says i should either connect to my mobile network or allow data download on my wi-fi connection and prompts me to go to the setting in wi-fi but i cant find what setting i need to change

That's me stumped then, as I don't use FB.

Well, that's new. It can browse the internet through a browser but can't open video files on FB? Have you tried the following:

1. Play videos from Youtube
2. Use the data connection through your provider

Have you tried using Friend Stream? It's the HTC app/widget that combines FB with Twitter.

Hi

Thanks for that
I can look at videos via wirless or via my phone network on my phone and over my wireless

I also can’t download apps when on my wireless.

Any ideas?

Tom
