Many thanks.

The password for the Wifi is printed on a label affixed to the bottom of the router, and is case sensitive, so ensure that you are using uppercase where relevant. You should be able to tick 'view password' to double-check the letters/digits as they are entered on the tablet.

Assuming the PC is still able to connect with the same password I'd give the tablet a reboot. Failing that setting the router back to factory default (by holding a pen/pencil etc in the recessed button for 10 seconds) should set the password on the router back to defaults and should then precisely match the one on the sticker.

The router also has to 'give permission' for the device to connect.

The router default is probably lower though.
Try installing WiFi Analyzer on your tablet and see what it finds.

Quote from: brokengreen Hi Nedludd, how do I do that?
From the router go :-
Home Network
Wireless
Pick a task
Search for wireless devices
Whilst that is running make sure your tablet is trying to access the internet!
