Zune can't see Wi-Fi on Imagio
 
Has anyone tried to connect to their Imagio's wifi router program with their Zune?
When I turn on the wifi mode, my laptop can see the imagio as a network source but my Zune can't. Any ideas?

I have noticed the same thing. Unfortunately, the Zune HD doesn't support ad-hoc networks, which the Imagio is. I don't have a workaround for you, as this lies squarely with Microsoft, and they would have to enable this feature in a firmware update.

Thanks. I didn't realize the Wifi feature was technically an adhoc network. Good to know now though.

Yep android devices without root and extensive modification to wpa_supplicant.conf can't see them either :P

There is no solution. The only solution is a firmware update from Microsoft for the Zune HD. Sorry. :???:

What are the chances that Zune Pass compatibility will ever make it onto WM 6.5 Devices?
Or should I just bank on chucking this Imagio for a Win 7 phone in the fall? I kinda hate that I went for the Imagio now that I know how awesome the Win 7 device is supposed to be. But my primary attraction to it is the Zune integration as i'm a huge Zune & Zune Pass fan.

Ditto on being a fan of Zune Pass, best 15 a month I ever spent. Unfortunately no, but I plan on getting a WP7 device this fall to replace my Imagio, and if you want to do what you say you do, you'll probably want to do the same if the budget allows for it.:)

Funny thing is this.....i'm SERIOUSLY thinking i'll just save some bucks and buy one of the Kin phones instead...Ultimately, I think the main thing i'm excited about with Win7 phone is the Zune aspect. The whole "lockeddownness" of it kinda turns me off though.
