Wireless Help!

Hi everyone,

I just had a quick question about the wireless feature on the Zune. I recently picked one up once I read that I could stream/download songs with the Zune pass when I was near a wifi connection. That greatly appealed to me since I can listen to my mp3 player at work and we have a wifi connection here.

Unfortunately, I found out today my Zune can't find the network. It's a hidden network, where you have to tell the device the exact name and password to look for, and all the zune does is scan and say no networks found.

Is there any way to get the Zune to find this network?

Thanks,
Mike

I'm not 100% sure but I think that the only way to do that is with the Zune software on the PC. You can manually set the Zune network settings under the [Settings] [Device] [Wireless Sync] [Show Advanced Settings] and then type in the information there. That should update it to your Zune when you finish the wizard, and with any luck should be able to hop on that network when your in range.

Hope this helps
Brent
