May I assume that the router is yours and not one that you have no control over?

Den ,I've tried connecting at a few other wi fi spots that I normally make Skype calls at and the same thing occurs,so its definitely something on the n810 thats stopping me connecting.

I enter" username"...
then" password"...
tick "sign in when skype starts"

Click "sign in"

and get the above result.?

From the screenshot you can clearly see I am connected to the net...Plus I just posted this from my device.

I am guessing that when you uninstalled Skype, there were some files still left in a folder on your internal flash. After you uninstall, use emelfm2 and see if you still have files located at /usr/share/skype. Delete any files associated with Skype before re-installing it. Also, from where did you install you new Skype?

I installed skype from app manager..Is there a better version from elsewhere?

I realize there was probably residual files floating around but didnt know how to get to them from Maemo.Thanks for letting me know about emelfm2.

I'll give that a try now..

It is good that you installed from the "installable applications" using the Application Manager. One more thing, use terminal and type "sudo gainroot" then type emelfm2 so that you have permission to delete those files.

I get
"enable RD mode to gain root privileges" when I type "sudo gainroot"
