Hi, can you maybe give a little more information in what way it doesn't work, or it simply just will not connect?

Try to reset your router, if no luck remove any security that is enabled until you are able to connect.
It seems the problem is most likely router related, it is always possible that it is a faulty Novo 7 but that would be my last suggestion.

You may also try changing the channels from 11, 12, 13 by going to:
wireless & wifi settings / advanced / regulatory domain

First, what firmware are you running on?
Second, its always good to test on other router if connection fails, some routers may have settings that do not work well when connecting from an Android device.

thanks all for your responses.
i have tried all available firmware : 1.6 ,1.7beta ,1.7.2 and 1.8
i have always the same problem.
so my tablet connect to my wifi and the internet connection work approximately 1 minute and after that . the internet not replies but the tablet connect to the wifi.
i think probably it's a time out.
but i have 2 tablet and the other (window N50 zero) work fine, and all my laptops as well.
my wifi used the wep protocol and the router is from my ISP who is 'FREE' in france.
thanks for your help

oh now i understand,
goto settings/wireless & networks/wifi settings
press menu & then advanced
wifi sleep policy, change this to never

should fix that problem if i understood your problem correctly

I installed 1.8 from a Vista. Works OK. Market place works good. Had to hold down Vol -(minus) key.

Made an error in that I did not accept the total format (last screen choice). What did I lose?

Questions

1. Audio volume is very low. Any suggestions to cure?

2. Can I root the device over 1.8 so that I can install the Titanium backup program

which version 1.8 did you use, there seems to be 2-3 versions...
have you tried to re-flash and see if the audio problem is resolved?

the wifi sleep policy is set to never . but the problem is always the same.
I will try to install the new firmware 1.8 beta 2. i hope it will fix the problem

I have a similar problem. My wifi turns off when the screen has been off for a little while. No firmware has fixed this for me yet, not even 1.8beta2. And yes, sleep policy = never.
