WiFi Configuration & Manually assigned IP address
I have an unlocked i-mate K-Jam device and I'm trying to get it to work with Wifi and having a lot of trouble.
After a lot of searching, I finally found the area in the Settings/Network Cards app that allows me to input the manual IP settings and DNS server IP address.
However, after I input that information, I get a dialog telling me that the settings will be used the next time I insert the card. Since the card in within the phone, it never seems to take the manual settings. If I look at the Advanced tab of the WiFi settings, it shows the proper network, shows a strong signal, but shows IP address 0.0.0.0.

What sort of encryption are you using on the router/wireless DHCP server? What's the make and model of your wireless transmitter?
I have a Netgear WGT624v2. My father has a WGT624v3. We're both using the same firmware version. I can connect to his router using 128-bit WEP. I can only connect to mine using WPA-PSK. If I try and use WEP on mine, it gives me a 0.0.0.0 IP address. The router sees the phone just fine, but refuses to give it an IP address if I'm using WEP. Doesn't matter if I'm broadcasting my SSID or not.
