MacConnect on smart phone?
Heyyy
Does anyone know if it's possible to connect and use internet through Mac's wifi? I have N86 and am trying to connect it with the network however it's giving an error report. Any suggestion on how to make it work?

I have no problems with MacConnect on my BB. Redirects me right to the MacID login page.

Weird. Once I login, I'm free to navigate to my heart's desire. Have you tried browsing to another page once you've gotten to the info page?

On my LG Renoir, I can get past the "Enter your MacID and password" screen maybe 10% of the time.

...And then I'm told to download Clean Access Agent. =\
