Hi all,

Just got my new iPod Touch today and its fantastic. I'm having odd problems with the wi-fi though.

When I disable all security on the router, the iPod connects fine, however with a WEP password, it doesn't want to connect. It rejects the first key, but allows you to connect with not internet on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th keys. I did manage to get it working temporarily by changing the WEP password, but now it has stopped again. I have also tried putting the settings in manually but it'll have none of it. If I let it try and get the internet using the 2nd WEP key, it comes up with an odd IP address.

WPA is rly out of the option because its a pain in the arse to get working on ubuntu, and one of the computers in the house has a wireless adapter that doesn't support it.

Any ideas?

Cheers,
James
 
I have a feeling it is something to do with the router I'm using, as changing around with the channel seems to have some effect, albeit temporary. I might see if I can borrow someone's router and try it with that.
