Please post your detailed wifi configuration. Which settings are applied at the router and the phone? Especially concerning wifi. If you use encryption you might have to enable an option called "secure permissions" or similar in location and security settings.

Make sure you put the security key in EXACTLY as it is on the router. My girlfriend put the password in lower case on her phone and WiFi wouldn't work. I changed them to all upper case and, et viola, it worked! Lol

Press 'Thanks' if I helped!
