    i have the eircom wireless broadband, and this keeps coming up, and i cant open any web pages?
    i bought this itouch in New York, anyone got ideas for me?

    usually the (?) goes away when it approves the wep code, but thats not happening either...

    Do any of the other network-enabled apps work? e.g. weather, mail

    Two things - can you get another device (e.g laptop) working with the wireless router? Also, have you double-checked your wep key?

    Are you sure you entered the password correctly? A typo will sometimes cause this. Try resetting the network settings. So to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Then try connecting again.

    If that doesn't work, check if it's connecting using DHCP or manually. If it's using DHCP, switch to manual or if it's connecting manually, switch to DHCP. You access these settings by going into the Wifi settings and tapping the blue circle with the > in it.

    Try these Manual settings:
    IP Address: 192.168.1.50
    Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
    Router: 192.168.1.254
    DNS: 192.168.1.254

    Also, I'm presuming you don't have MAC address filtering turned on?
