Hi -
I'm clutching at straws a bit here as I'm not expecting to get any sense out
of T-Mobile or HTC.
Android 1.5 (as used on my new T-Mobile G2 Touch) uses
kernel 2.6.27 which introduced a bug in the ordering of TCP options. As a
result, some routers (e.g. my ZyXEL ADSL router, for one) refuse to route
packets originating from an Android 1.5 device.
Are there any easy Android-side fixes for this problem?
Cheers,
Alex
