Identifying and no internet

How did you connect to the connection. Have you prompted to enter password?

Show me the corresponding screenshot please.

I'm afraid for some reason the DHCP request wasn't broadcast (firewall) or the DHCP server didn't response.

Click the 'Change adapter settings', right click the WiFi interface, choose the IPv4, click property, and enter the following information manually:

IP: 192.168.1.99
Netmask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.1
DNS: 192.168.1.1

And then test the connection again.

This did the trick, with no need to turn off the firewall....
I managed to change it manually but used the alternate configuration tab in the IPv4 properties in case I want to change to any house connection the automatic IP will act and when changing to the N900 connection it will also connect but waiting not more than 2 minutes (due to the IPv4 will run the automatic first and after finding a no successful connection it will check the alternate configuration)

Thanks 9000 for all your help and time spent due to my problem

Is 6790 running s60v3? IIRC Joikuspot supports this platform, you'd like to check their official website, or OVI.

I see. However, you can't use my script in 6790 as it is not Linux based.
