Hello,

How do I connect to a home wireless network with an 8700g?

Thanks.

You don't. BlackBerrys are not networkable, they do not have wifi.

That sucks.

Is it possible to do it through an adapter or something?

Nope. There is rumor that a wifi enabled BlackBerry will be coming, but it isn't here yet, and I doubt if we will see it for some time. That's not what BBs do...yet.

I would be happy if they would even do their OTA stuff via a tethered connection to a PC. Like it will do for BES already with the BB device manager running on your PC, but in a BIS environment instead/as well.

When connected via BB device manager running on your PC in a BES environment, the data can flow via your PC to the BES instead of over GPRS...
