Classic Nook and Wifi use

ckole · 12-09-2009, 11:13 AM

I am happy to report that I was able to log into my secure access point with my Nook. The device allows you to type in the SSID type of security (if any) and the required password. So saying that it can only connect to open no login screen access points is not entirely correct. I imagine there might be a problem at places like Paradise Bakery that do have you click a link on a browser screen.

Not sure how much I will use this but at least it works better than expected.

While browsing the store there were speed improvement over using the 3G connection.

That's good to know!

I think they were meaning you can only log into access points were the security is on the point and not browser based.

Does it support all security types?

I saw WEP and WPA. Auto and None are the other 2 options.
