    Hi folks,

    Bought an iphone 3gs. Using a meteor SIM. Can text and call fine. Got home and tried to set up my home wireless on the phone. WIFI is selected and it's picking up my broadband. However, when I put in the (correct) password I get a message saying 'Unable to join the network' which is highly irritating.

    Anyone know how I can sort this out?

    hi guys,
    came across this piece and i have a similar problem.
    I have an I phone 4s on meteor. In my new area I have no signal for the phone but have quite good 3 stick signal for laptop. I am in the process of installing digiweb mostly for the landline but also for their broadband package which is excellent in this area.

    I was wondering will i be able to use viber via the iphone for calls and texts using the broadband? they wouldnt answer this in digiweb.

    Digiweb comes with 2 hours of free mobile calls but this wouldnt be near enough.

    All suggestions welcome

    Thanks in advance

    Viber ONLY works via mobiles that have the Viber app installed. Once you install the Viber app it will scan your contacts list and populate it's own contact list with your friends who have the Viber app installed on there phone. Those who appear in your Viber Contacts list you can call and text for free over an internet connection. (Note : If you use Viber on a 2/3g network it will use data)So if the person you are ringing doesn't have Viber, Viber will direct you to place a normal call instead.

    Hope that helps.
