i can't get wifi to work at home. It shows our network and ask for password but still will not connect. our laptops will connect fine. wifi will work elsewhere
any idea?

may seem like a dumb question but, was the password typed correctly? I know I had to re-type mine before it actually connected (I was still getting used to the keyboard then too)

Check and see what IP address your getting
it will be in settings\wi-fi..
If it is a 169.xxx address its likely that the wireless is not quite set up correctly.
For me I'm using WEP security. When I had a connection issue it ended up being that the WEP key index I had set in my router was different than what the iPhone (or at least iPod Touch) expected and it doesn't have a method of setting the key index. I changed my router to use key index 1 and that resolved my problem.
