416107 2005-12-27 22:59:00 Has anyone connected to a Telecom Wi-Fi hotspot using a Palm device?
I got as far as connecting - but don't know what to do next... ie how do you log in with your prepaid card?
I couldn't seem to connect to any webpages using Palm Web Pro - clicking Home tried to take me to my usual home page and timed out as did every other page I tried... as did email (presumably because I was not logged in) - so how do I get to a login page?
I assume this will work the same with other hotspots and as I will be in Melbourne over New Year would be keen to get this sorted :-)
I know is must be possibe as the Wi-Fi card came with a $10 prepaid Telecom hotspot card - but with no related instructions...

BTW - I use a Palm Tungsten T3 with PalmOne Wifi Card (yes, I can connect with no problems to my home network).

Cheers
Neil

416108 2005-12-28 08:54:00 yes, actually i have...

all you have to do is, when your Palm is connected online, enter some sort of address that you might want to go, then afterward, it will automatically link to its telecom website site, there is 3 option for you to go on... choose the relevant one and you will be on your way..

i am on xtra broadband, so i just select that one and enter my xtra username and my password

Could it perhaps have something to do with the proxy setting in Web Pro?
What browser were you using?
