Hello everyone! My SX66 is acting funny. I just hard-reset it yesterday to get a clean build due to some other bugs that popped up after hard resetting and interrupting the automatic ExtROM CABs installation. Now everything seems to work fine except that I can't connect to the Internet. The WiFi shows strong signal strength and that it's connected to the AP, but in the network settings it says that it's trying to connect to "Work." Well, I don't want to connect to "Work" cause I don't have a special VPN or anything, just a plain old AP. So I change the setting and click OK, but as soon as I do that, it changes right back. I've tried turning the interface off and on again after making the change, but it always reverts to Work. Does anyone know the Registry key for this value? I have had other instances where a value seemed to be stuck and I successfully changed it in the registry, but this one is stumping me.

Ok, now it appears that it's no longer the "Work/Internet" selector that's broken, it's the Network Chooser in the Settings menu.
Normally, you have My ISP, My Work Connection, and whatever your GPRS/EDGE provider is... In my case, it's MEdia Net. Well, there's a fourth network in there that appears to be sort of symlinking to the My ISP connection profile. I know it's not supposed to be there. I can rename it, but I can't delete it, and whenever I select My ISP as the default, the system selects the other "clone" of that profile. Other than doing another hard reset and hoping for the best, I'm out of ideas.

Uh... He he he... I fixed it... well sorta.
The AP wasn't connected to the internet.
It's not actually mine, it's my school's, but still...
