Hey people Im having a problem connecting to my college wifi network on my Moto Droid. I can connect to it fine but Im not able to put in my school username and password to access the web. when I used my ipod touch it allows me to log into my school account to access the web same with my laptop. 3g works fine, but I was wondering was there a way to use wifi on a college networks, that requires you to put in your school username and password?

on my college network u can add devices such as 360's, PS3's, ipods, and iphones, call ur IT department and u will have to send them ur droids mac address then they will add it to the network so u don't have to log in from ur droid each time u wanna get on the school wifi

I'm having the same issue connecting to Optimum Wifi. It works like this college network. I entered my droids MAC address with my PC but my droid still won't open web pages. I hope the MAC address fix works for you it didn't for me.
