    alright so I got a new Tablet, its an Elocity A7. I cant get it to connect to my Wifi even though my Cel Phone can connect to it just fine. ive entered the WEP key properly but it just gets stuck at obtaining IP address and wont go any further.

    router: Netgear
    Tablet: Elocity A7+

    Make sure the firmware on your router is up to date. I had trouble getting my friend's Nook working and found that the route was older and could not handle the Book's protocols. After updating the router's firmware and rebooting, the Nook connected just fine.
