Explore will find web via wi-fi Firefox 3.6 thinks it is offline (no check mark!)
I purchased a Dell Inspiron Mini 10 from the local (Baltimore, MD) AT&T store. After bringing it home and connecting to the local wi-fi (in home not AT&T mobile) I used the built in Explore and downloaded Firefox 3.6. After installing with no difficulty Explore continued to work but Firefox could not connect to any server and gave msg like off line even though the working offline was not checked. I downloaded again and re-installed with the same result.
These results are the same with AT&T Mobile connection, local wi-fi and local network (LAN) wired connection.
The Dell Netbook is using Windows 7.
