Vox WiFi turns on and then off

TonyToews · 02-21-2013, 07:27 PM

Vox working fine yesterday. Today the Wi-Fi doesn't work. I turned the WiFi on, waited and then about 30 or 60 seconds later it turns itself off. It didn't allow me an opportunity to scan for networks or anything. No message.

My Palm TX and my laptop work just fine on my WiFi connection. I have power restarted my Wireless Access Point but no difference. Turning airplane mode on and off made no difference.

Any suggestions?

To my astonishment a reset fixed up things. Deleted all my installed apps but that's fine. I wasn't using most of them and the updates which caused much sluggishness was highly annoying.

Of course I had to create another throwaway Google account to download the free apps such as Firefox. JohnSmith and a bunch of random digits. Oh well.
