connected, but not connected ?? 12 Months ago Karma: 0
Greetings -

New to the nook, & new here.
Picked up a nook this past Thursday, just before a weekend getaway,
to (believe it or not) serve as a handy, lightweight, searchable camera manual.

Charged it up at work, & registered at a local 'bucks.
Downloaded my D7000 book.
So far, so good.

And I downloaded a novel at the airport just prior to my flight home.
Again, no problem.

But, thus far, the device won't work with my home connection --
the same wireless connection through which I'm typing this message
on my better half's Macbook, and the same connection that successfully
serves my PC desktop.

The nook 'sees' my local wifi connection, and seems to connect to the router
(and thence to the internet), but it always fails when I try to shop --
after the clockwise circling dots, I encounter the "Sorry, a problem
has occurred ... " error. And I've tried 'forgetting' and reconnecting.

Has anyone else encountered a similar situation and, if so,
what did you do to resolve it?

Thanks kindly,

- Richard

wifi problems are too common. I'd make sure you get the latest firmware update just in case the device has an older one.

Then if you have a wifi with a "guest" network feature turn it off and see if helps.
