Hello all. I bought an iPod Touch to use at my university, but I am having trouble accessing the school wireless network. It uses a proxy with a PAC file, and I was assured before I bought the iPod that it is possible to use the Touch on a network like this.

Here's the address of my school's wireless setup page just so you can see what we have:

http://wireless.massey.ac.nz/

The iPod can see the network (MUStudents). When I try to set up, I use DHCP with the proxy set up as "Automatic." I have tried using the manual set up as well. The iPod says it has connected, but when I go to use Safari nothing ever works. It just says that the server cannot be found.

Any advice?

Bye Mulaaffesia, thanks for playing.....

cutman, I have no experience with PAC files, but I found this when googling...

I wonder if you can use those values (in your colleges PAC file) to set your connection up manually?

This is quite handy too..
