Ha! I've literally just done it but I'm not sure how! Turned off the
Bluetooth, though, and turned on 11b as well as the 11g on my 3com
router (on which I get a complete MAC address) - previously the phone
(11b) was showing connected but the router was set for 11g only.

I have exactly the same issue (UK user). While trying to access one of
the hotspots such as BT Openzone or Tmobile, I am able to connect,
however there is no downloading of the gateway page. Has anyone had
more success and could he/she please send me the settings for WIFI
access.
Many thanks
Yves

I can access the BT openzone hotspot in for example McDonalds in Cardiff
and purchase access, but not the T-mobile hotspot in Starbucks.
T-mobile who are now selling the phone locally have no current answer
to this problem and are obviously somewhat embarassed!!.

Hi.
I'm having the same problem described here.
I have input the mac address in the access list.
I tried turning off bluetooth, but as soon as I do that, the device
doesn't detect the wireless network any more.
Any ideas or suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Thank you!
Pablo
