Hey guys I'm looking to buy this phone. Currently using galaxy ace. I use my phone for surfing the net mostly and the occasional game. I love Androids widgets but the ace can't support too many cause of its GHz and ram. So is it worth the upgrade?

Factory reset?  Restart wifi driver?  Send to service center?

I don't know if I should send to service counter..I mean, if the wifi works with their router: what can I say?
Everything in my house works with this router except mine (even my previous sgs ACE)

OKAY I'VE DONE IT. f***ING FINALLY.

This is what I did.

I configured my modem to have a special DNS (OpenDns) to bypass TM's porn blocker.
Turns out you have to configure the same DNS addresses in to Wifi-> Advanced.

Anyone who has OpenDns (or the same type of thing) take note! Took me a whole day to find out!
