    It cant connect to the N-Band, the WiFi hardware is B/G only (presumably for power consumption reasons).

    You have to change your home network settings to be B/G/N Mixed.

    That Explains it.....

    My CISCO router is N band only...... Oh well, life in the "fast" lane.

    Thanks for the quick response.

    Really? That's weird -- is it brand new? N Band only became a standard a few months ago....

    What model is it?

    You must be running Mixed mode, because it's impossible for the Droid to support 802.11N

    You are correct sir, one of my son's Wii is b/g also... just letting the OP know that CISCO-N and Droid work in some situations (mine) so with further investigation he may get his to work.

    I didnt mean to come off as accusing, just trying to reinforce my own position on mixed mode-ness. We'll get this worked out for the OP.

    When i had my d-link in N-Mode only, i could still get my droid to connect to it. Take it for what it's worth, i work on routers all the time, so i know it wasn't in mixed mode for those who want to somehow debunk it.
    Resistance is futile.
