Youre most likely trying to connect to either too weak of a wifi signal, or it's a secured network that you can't actually use. I've found that sometimes there will be a random wifi signal when im out at a cafe or something, and i'll try it, but it won't connect because the signal is too weak. You pretty much need at least 3 bars, usually 4 to fully access the internet.

Do you have it both hooked to internet and regular phone line? That was the only way I could get it to work. It does work excellent. Let me know specifics on your hook up and I can give you a better answer.Thanks Scott

I noticed that the most recent firmware update wasn't working - it couldn't find my network. I went back to an older version of the firmware and it worked fine. Maybe that will help you.

I loved this phone, but I never had data on it. I believe that you can connect to the internet, although I am not sure what the cost of doing so would be. I finally got a smart phone, but it is costly to have internet. Hope this helped.

I had the same problem. I had to change my modem to another modem (although nothing was wrong with my original modem) to get it to work but before i did i carried the android to a place with open wifi and tried it and it connected without a problem. I also carried it by a friend and it connected there without a problem. I did that to ensure the android was not the problem. For some reason it doesnt connect to certain modems (or if there is a way to get it to connect to those modems then i dont know how). Sorry i couldnt be of more help.

...it doesn't work with a data plan....not even even as a phone. My phone overheated and is trapped in a boot-up loop. I would recommend another phone. After searching online for a solution, I discovered that this failure is not uncommon.

Dc urbanite said he was able to use this phone on consumer cellular service, I have not been able to get internet working on the service even with consumer cellular help when not on my wifi network. The phone works, but not mobile internet. If anyone has been able to get the the Internet working I would love to know how!

Good day, upon receiving the phone, the first thing done was connect it to my PC, and open the Nokia Software Updater for Retail 4.1 program, they scan the phone, and upgrade the operating system to the most recent phone without any problem. My advice is that if you buy a Nokia phone with Windows Phone on your PC download such software, and update your phone before you give use. I hope to help you. Thank you.

I am still trying to get mine to work. I cannot find a sim card that will connect to a network. I wanted to send it back but I was two days past the deadline to send it back. I guess I can use it for target practice.

The Anna update did not work for me either. I bought the phone directly from Amazon who said it was directly from Nokia. I tried wifi update using Nokia Software Updater on the phone itself, then directly connected to my Mac via a USB cable, then connected to a Windows 7 computer with Nokia Suite. None identified any updates. This phone was supposed to be a Christmas present and I wanted it to have at least Anna if not Belle. Guess I'll have to spend Saturday morning on the phone with Nokia customer service.Help!

With nokia phones you can keep the setting as prompt (asking for which connection to use) when trying to connect to internet. So any applications when trying to connect to internet you will know and you can just cancel it if you don't want it to.

Hi Heba, If the phone freezes sometimes and can start working again once you restart the N8 I would say that it may be a good idea to either perform a hard reset or re-install the firmware. 1. To hard reset your N8 you should turn it off. Hold down the Volume Down + Camera + Menu buttons and press the power button until the phone vibrates. This will wipe the phone's memory and all settings, turning it back to factory settings. Please keep in mind that this will result in the total loss of any content you have stored on the phone so please backup your phone's files using Nokia Suite before you do this. 2. You should be able to re-install the firmware from the Nokia Suite desktop software. Connect your phone to your computer and start up Nokia Suite. Look under Software Updates and it should show you the current firmware version of your phone. There should be a link that will allow you to re-install your current firmware. Re-installing the firmware should not cause you to lose your data or settings, but I would still recommend backing up your files. Personally, I would probably go with the firmware option and see if that helps. But if it doesn't then you may want to speak with Nokia Care and see if they can do something. FYI - their only repair facility in the US is in Texas.
