New to PDA's, but have copied the WPA/PSK key from the router to a wordpad
file and into the PDA (still new to pda's this is a HTC TyTn II), but it's
not connecting.

Would appreciate any suggestions?

The Livebox is notoriously tricky. Did you press "button-1", then send
the key immediately afterwards?

Glad to hear it. Most wireless routers just need the WEP/WPA-key, but
the Livebox (and a similar,now defunct, router from BT) have the
"Button-1" as added protection. In practice, it just adds to the
annoyance factor. I think Orange have given up on the Livebox, and are
now shipping are a ore normal router (Siems, I believe).

Make sure you get the very latest version - previous versions don't
work with WM6.1 (and specifically on the TYTN-II).

No I didn't know I needed to. I'm wary of touching routers as from
experience it leads to hours and days of work!
