Greetings!

I am attempting to my home wireless network with my new LG Vortex with not avail. My network is configured to use static IP addresses and I have entered an appropriate IP address into the phone and have selected to "use static IP address". I have also entered the gateway address and subnet mask.

My router is seeing the Vortex trying to connect, however, the Vortex reads "Obtaining IP address from Router" when it attempts to connect...then it times out. This makes no sense unless I have possibly gone through the set up procedure in the wrong order.

Any assistance is appreciated!
