Reply #4: Got an answer to my Palm WiFi question...posting here to help

[ikojo]

others who may experience the same problem...

Now this probably applies only at Panera (St Louis Bread) Company stores but who knows, it may also apply at other WiFi spots and connecting with a Palm.

I called the toll free number and talked to a tech guy. He did a few clicks and watched as I tried to log on and voila! I was on and surfing DU. Sadly I did not type this response on my Palm but I'll get there.

I hope this helps others as they try to surf wirelessly.

"I think it's a problem with the way your PDA handles (or doesn't handle)
Javascript. Every time I want to use wifi on my PDA at a Bread Co. I have
to call their support people (800-410-0460) and let them know.  They pull
some levers on their end and then I'm able to get in.  (They have to
manually add your MAC address as being OK to access their network.)  They
say that they're hoping they can get this fixed, but it'll mean going to a
different kind of access point so they're not sure when it'll happen.

Meantime, just call and let them know you want on.  They will do something
that will enable you to go wireless from then on (at that one
location).  You have to call them each time you visit a new Bread Co."
