I'm not sure this is the right place to ask (admin can direct me to the rite thread mayb?) but apparently i can't access the wifi from my house wireless modem.

When I click App store, it only displays 'Loading...' for ages..

Anyone, any idea?

the security is WEP. So you mean WPA causes less trouble?

unrelated topic: wats the difference between WEP, WPA, WPA2 etc?

i'm too lazy to dig up old apple forum discussion threads, but it has been well accepted by the community that apple products prefer WPA to a certain extend (WPA is way more secure than WEP).

for a more detailed explanation on their differences, you have to do your own homework.

same thing, which happened to my previous macbook; it just refuse to accept my lousy d-link router (waste of money) on WEP.

haha ok thx, anyway i have changed to WPA, and it's still the same, i could see the wave sign on top, but when i open safari/app store, it still gives the same result. my app store is like loading forever...

well, my best guess, is to try out with another wireless router with another iPhone user.

if his/her unit works, then it is down to yours...
something is definitely wrong with yours (or way of usage) then.

even with occasional 3G usage and frequent music listening (but this is extremely negligible), i could last for 1.5 days.

My iPhone 3GS shows "Could not activate cellular data network. You are not subscribed to a cellular data service".

3G and Edge are both turned on using sbsettings.

My cellular data settings are:
APN: unet
Username: maxis
Password: wap

Should be correct right? I'm using 3.0.1 jailbroken using redsn0w.
Anyone knows how to fix this?

update: i'm using a hotlink prepaid sim btw. I tried changing APN to "net" and it works but i'm not sure whether i'll get charged for that. Supposedly free data 500mb per month.

I had identical problem like yours dude. Try this:

http://www.modmyi.com/forums/web-apps/1059...ind-server.html

I followed the advice from viral_dna in the forum and it worked!

Is your security WEP or WPA? I was told it's better to change it to WPA/WPA2.

It is widely rumoured that it'll be out sometime early Sept together with the new ipod touch, fingers crossed.
The beta version has been released to developers and some of the features might include:

General speed improvement in booting, app launching and performance.
Monitoring/debugging apps over Wi-Fi for developers.
Improved battery life for iPhone 3G & 3GS only.
Better accuracy in indicating battery percentage and battery percentage toggle for all devices.
When moving icons in the springboard, iPhone vibrates.
Voice Control for 3GS compatible with Bluetooth headsets.
Safari speed increases and Fraud Protection Toggle in Safari Settings.
Save video attachments to your photo album.
“Trim Original” and “Save as New Clip” for Video Recording in 3GS, save a copy of your video before trimming.
APIs to allow third party apps to access videos and edit them, meaning video editing apps in the Appstore.
Improvements to the Compass on the 3GS in terms of performance.
MMS now only allows a maximum of 5 photos sent at once.
Copy/Paste functions for numeric keypad in Phone app.
Toggle to password protect the “Find my iPhone”.
View Tethering usage data.
Use of Augmented Reality apps.
General minor bug fixes from OS 3.0.

So basically we r approximately less than a month to a new OS, hopefully the battery draining problem will be fixed. The rest are just minor problems to me.
