Hi people,

I'm facing a problem with a connection to a wifi network with a encription method TKIP,, the thing is, apparently he connects to the Wlan, because it gives me a valid IP, but when I open the browser and try to load a page, it does not work :S I don't know what to do, i've tried so many times to solve the problem but with no success.

Can someone help me?

Thx

Have you verified if you have DNS working? Does it make a difference if you try to visit a site using just the IP number?

If the network is your own then you could try pinging the device to check if it's really on the network.

Do your IM accounts work. On some connections my browser doesn't work but IM does.

I don't understand why I can't connect to this Wlan with my N900, if I'm connected to it with my laptop and talking to you with it...And yes I've tried in other Wlan's and it's not a problem of my N900 hardware :S

Please open a terminal and show us the output of the following commands when trying to connect to the wifi / connected to:

(you need to be root to do this / please reboot before you issue these):

ifconfig

route

dmesg | grep wlan

Ok people, I've taken the screenshots, in these screenshots the device was connected to the Wlan but when I try to load a page it doesn't work.

This looks perfectly okay.
Try to reach the router's webinterface ( http://192.168.1.1 )
I think your DNS resolution is failing and because of that you can't visit websites.
