[Chelle13]

Hi there, I googled this subject and it brought me here but i cant see a response I have bought 2 Zepads for my children for christmas and they look amazing BUT i cant get them connected to my wifi. Like alot of people who have posted the same problem, it says it is obtaining an IP adress then it just disconnects its very frustrating and I dont want to wrap them up for christmas if i cant get them connected..... any suggestions that may help would be greatly appreciated, thanks

Don't know if this applies to you but I wanted to post this here for the many others who are having connection problems also. I had a Craig tablet and Craig Netbook and each were running Android 2.2 I called Craig and was told that they have a conflict with Verizon internet service because it's Mi-fi rather than Wi-Fi. Crazy. I spent days on both these units doing hours of googling the matter trying to troubleshoot it. I also tried all sorts of things to "wake up" my Wi-fi. (shut the wifi down and then turn the unit off and reboot, or I'd "forget" my manually added network and then add it again. I did this over and over again. Oddly, sometimes it worked and I'd get connected. But not always which was frustrating. The Craig rep was surprised that I connected at all using Verison DSL. So why don't they put that important detail like IN ALL CAPS or something to warn Verizon users of this conflict?
