You should log into the router and temporarily turn off the security. If the phone then connects it's either a problem with wep (try wpa if that's so) or you are using the wrong password......

Hi, I tried connecting at my daughters, same issue, I tried connecting at my sons, same issue, different networks, different routers. I tried connecting at an open zone, same issue.

O2 are now sending me a replacement handset, hopefully this one will be ok.Thanks all.

 

Edit: Also turned off all security and still getting the same network disabled, poor connection despite showing full signal strength
