Hi DH,

Sorry it was of no help. I got my Streak direct from Dell and before I bought a sim I had it running on two different Wi Fi networks. It shouldn’t need a sim for the Wi Fi.

Is yours locked to a network? I can’t see how this would cause issue but I am out of ideas.

When you get to 4. Wi Fi networks what do you see?

Hi

Sales rep. was right it shouldn’t be an issue. You don’t need a sim to use the WiFi, its a totally separate function. Turn on WiFi and select your router from list, security info and off you go. Sorry if this is patronising I don’t know what you have tried.

1 MENU

2 Wireless & Networks

3 Wi Fi Settings

4 Wi Fi networks

5 Pick yours enter security

Ta Da, (I hope)

Hi Rich

No need for apologies I really appreciate the help.

At 4 I can see my WIFI connection , so I click on it,  select connect  ........ then nothing appears to happen ! Press the home key to open a browser but can't connect to any web page

Hi Rich,

Thanks for your assistance.

Unfortunately this is still not working for me . To be clear I am not putting a SIM into the Streak at all, not simply disabling the Mobile Networks facility.

I must be doing something wrong but I have followed the exact steps as you have detailed

Hi

I am stumped, is the signal strength is ok? Do you have any security on the router?
