Because when we say its a laptop(oh ya much more than that) ,then we should be able to do everything like a laptop,after all we are paying that much too.
Do you mean that your laptop can connect to your router when the laptop and the router have 1000kms between them? Tell how you do it, and then I will understand the concept and tell whether N900 can do it. N900 can do most things laptop can do, but I don't understand how laptop can connect when 1000kms away from its router.

If I configured my laptop internal router with my pc internet then I don't need router,I can surf internet anywhere in the country where my ISP has its network,I wanna know,is it possible with N900?
This is deciding factor for me thats why I am asking,I hope I am not troubling you.

Thank you.

Sorry for my ignorance. Do you mean that ISP has WiFi routers all over the country so that you could connect to them and get Internet anywhere as long as you have proper router settings? If so, I'm sure N900 should be able to do it. Maemo is a full-featured Linux. If you say what router settings it's necessary to change, I would look around how to change them in N900.

This post might be outdated but I have nowhere else to turn. I'm trying to flash a N810, but neither win7 nor XP SP3 will recognize it in update mode. It connects fine in normal mode. Has anyone had this problem? What can I do?

Anyone got any ideas why this is so?
Guys, are any one of you geniuses able to shine some light on the above predicament that I face?

I'd really love to go back to using 2G to gain that little bit extra battery. I'm still not comfortable using the Swappaloube b'coz I still don't understand how that works - although it's supposed to help with battery life.

Might it help?
3G/2G/Dual Mode Selection Applet
http://maemo.org/packages/view/3g2g-...ection-applet/

I don't use Swappaloube, too.

Your problem is that you are using 3. They have turned off access to 2G where they have good 3G coverage. That is because the are a 3G only network and they only provide 2G through a roaming deal with one of the other providers to fill the gaps in their own coverage, so if you are using 2G where they have 3G you are needlessly costing them money.

Cheers mate...you clarified it....it makes sense as well

but it's a shame coz I was getting very good battery life using just 2G for the calls n txts and wifi for my internet....aww shucks.....i may just have to switch network next Feb (2012) or just bear it.....

But thanks a bunch buddy.
