This is strange...and the first time it's happened to me.

I turned on my Vox this morning from 'off' (shut it off last night). Everything turned on great, WiFi connected - saw a strong signal. Then I tried to get to a website and got a message 'not connected'. Then I tried to go to the Kobo store, and got an error message that I need an internet connection (as I sat scratching my head, looking at my strong internet connection).

So...I went into settings and disconnected my network, turned WiFi off, then turned it back on again, and re-connected to my network, and then I was back up and running again.

Any ideas why the Vox did not find my internet connection, even though I was obviously connected???
