Ipod touch wi-fi connection
I have purchased an ipod touch but am unable to connect to the internet via my wi-fi router (wireless works fine on my laptop). What am I doing wrong? Or more to the point what do I have to do to get connected?

2. press settings 3. press wi-fi (name of network included) 4. ask me to choose network. I choose mine. (wi-fi is on) 5. Press on my network (it has a tick next to it) And nothing happens

the tick means that you're already connected. do you see the wifi bars to the right of where it says ipod (top left of screen)?

I know it sounds obvious and a typical helpline type answer but have you switched your pod off then on again. I mean proper switch off not just locking it. Press & hold top button until slide to switch off comes up?
I occasionally have this problem and it does seem to cure it |

this document (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398) suggests resetting the network settings on your ipod and as a last resort resting your router.

if your router is a password protected one and it is not asking for password, whilst in the wifi screen with wifi on click the blue arrow next to your routers name then click on forget network button then click the back button in top left and then choose the router again see if that works
