      May sound obvious, but, have you got your proxy settings set up?

      proxy settings weren't the problem.

      problem was just my unfamiliarity with the device itself.

      figured it out in the end though.

      there is a WLAN utility that will display the list of available networks. you simple select the network , click ok and then select "the internet" in the "this devices connects to " dropdown list.
