Getting Palm T|X online

TheTraffic — Sat, 18 Aug 2007 15:21:32 +0800

Hi everyone... I have just bought a new Palm T|X. As I know it has a WiFi. I'm using it mostly at home. I have a PC with Internet connection (Streamyx ADSL modem). How can I surf the Internet by using the Palm? Can i connect the modem using network cable to the Palm?

Or do I need to get a wireless router (not a router modem)? G+ or higher end router? Which brand and price?

Pls advise.....

Before this (without the wireless router) i was able to sign in to Messenger. But after setting up the wireless router, i'm unable to sign in. I can surf the internet but only not able to get in Messenger. How can this happened?

I've got this error :
ERROR 81000306 "We were unable to sign you in to MSN Messenger, possibly because of a problem with the service or with your Internet connection. Please make sure that you are connected to the Internet"

I've tried (1) Off all the firewalls (windows & router), (2) Connected all the hardware properly, (3) uninstalled and re-installed the WLM(the latest one).

I'm really desperate to get a solution here. Been doing all sorts of settings but to no avail. I'm also a beginner in networking. Pls help me........
