I am having a problem of being able to connect via Wi-Fi but not being able to connect to the Internet.
I DO have Wi-Fi working on my Home Router, but I can't get it to work anywhere else, like Wi-Fi cafes or friend's homes.
In Wi-Fi settings I have Wi-Fi, Open network and Secure network checked.
When I go to the Advanced Settings, I have Peer to peer (Ad-hoc) channel set to Channel 1 (what does this mean?)
Wi-Fi sleep policy is set to Never
My MAC address is c8:aa:21:1a:ff:6c (don't know how that got there)
Enable Auto IP is checked

When I first noticed this problem I was in Mazatlan, Mexico on vacation. I called Tech Support and after going over the settings, I was basically told the problem was with the router I was trying to connect with. I did have the exact same problem with every Wi-Fi spot I tried to connect to over the entire trip, so it can't be every single router I tried connecting to.
What do I need to change to get this working?
Is this a problem with the Bionic?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Vicki, You need to change the peer to peer (ad-hoc) channel to 6. See if that helps at all

I'll give that a try next time I'm in a Wi-Fi spot.
Thanks for the suggestion!
