Hi-
Did the HC update last night and all appeared to go fine. However, I am not able to access the Internet or any app that uses it, such as the Market. I get my e-mail, so I am obviously connecting to the Wi-Fi signal at home and work, but when trying to go to the 'Net I get the above message. Anyone know where I change these proxy settings?

TIA!
:)

I posted this question on Flyerforums.net and got the resolution, so I am passing along for anyone else who sees the same issue...

A user on the forum asked if I had ever used the PDANet app to tether my Flyer to a phone. Why, yes I have. *Light bulb moment*

I went into PDAnet on my Flyer and cleared the proxy setting. Voila! Instant Internet access! I haven't used this program in months and totally forgot it had proxy settings. Before the HC update it hadn't affected my 'Net access at all.

Hope this helps!
