youll have to ask your IT guys(or whoever installed the WIFI) as the wep Key would have been set up at the time of installation.
its to stop any old person logging into it and using it for free.
although its surprising how many hotspots ive found without WEP keys!

Cheers DS, might have to go searching for hotspots when l'm out and about today. Yes the WLAN at work was ok when I first got my 9500, maybe it was put in place because they noticed someone using it?! There are 2 laptops at work that use the WLAN, would l be able to find the WEP key on 1 of them, if so where? They both use XP professional. Cheers.

@AYA- any luck with faxing on your 9500 yet mate?

@JohnM: Yes! The network whose SIM I use on my 9500 has launched fax. I subscribed yesterday and was told it will be active on my line in 2 business days. I know someone else on the same network who uses the fax service on his 9500. He says its a smooth ride and no complications.
So, I am waiting for it to get active and have a go! Once fax is active on my line, my 9500 indeed becomes my one-stop mobile office solution 
@DS: Just curious; why the name change?

@aff: Sorry, but I don't have much info on the 9000i, but I don't think Symbian as we know it today was in existence then. I also doubt if any 3rd party apps can be installed on a device that old
@JohnM: Amen to that! Honestly, I think that most people react negavitely to the 9500 more on perception than reality.
For example, almost everyone I know who had dissed the 9500 "because its just too big" are pleasantly surprised when they see mine in real life. Their first reactio often is "This thing is really not that big!"
It fits comfortably in my trouser pockets (though anyone would have to be crazy to walk around with one that way).
Others just want an entertainment device, and that is what the 9500 is not.
Anyone who has serious work to do on the move and is not interested in lugging a notebook will definitely give the 9500 serious thought.

Another question: I'd love to see the URL of some links before I click to visit (sort of like checking link properties). Anyone figured out how to do that yet?

@aff - as far as l know, l cant download/install 3rd party applications to my 9000i, like AYA said, probably with the age of the device, it doesnt utilise symbian OS (or at least the symbian OS we are more familiar with these days). I'll boot up the 9000i later to see if it is at all possible and what OS it runs. Do you use a 9000i at present?
@AYA - my sentiments exactly, l find the 9500 perfect for me, still think my P900 is a great device, just the 9500 is in a different league. I've also always been more than impressed at the capabilities of the communicator range. |

@aff: I googled a bit and came up with Nokia's support page for the 9000i. Its here.
I also read an article that says the OS is called GEOS 3.0 (whatever that is!). But its certainly not Symbian as we know it.
Nokia's site confirms that even the 9000i's successors, the 9110 and 9110i both run an embedded AMD 486 processor and GEOS operating system.
