Nokia N80- wireless connection
Hi,
Received my N80 today and all looks to working Ok. Will take some getting used to as there are loads of functions compared to my old phone
.
I can connect to the web via the orange server then switch to an available wireless connection (e.g. my home network). How do I connect to the web without going through the orange server - can this be done?
Cheers

Not used the N70 but it turns on as quick as my 6230 (I believe this to a complaint with the 70 series) - the internet connection via my broadband wireless is lightening fast

All sorted. can be done by....
1) find WLAN and add to access point list via Connection > available WLAN (select what you find) > options > define access point.
2) Tools > Settings > Connection > Access Points
3) Set the default access point under Services > Options > Settings > Access Point. NB you don't need to be connecte do the server to do this

Phones a decent size for what it can do and still feels like a phone (which is pretty important for me).
Can't really fault it - as good as it gets at the moment.

It's very brick like, mines been crashing and freezing reguarly and the battery life is terrible.
I'll give it the weekend and see if it grows on me, otherwise it's gonna get the 14 day return treatment.
