does blackberry app world work on wifi ?

i turned off data services , my web browser works fine on wifi , but app world won't , can anyone confirm ?

also is it possible to connect to 5gz range wireles n router or only 2.4 ?

only my 2.4 shows up so i assume only 2.4 gz range

1. AppWorld does not work over wifi
2. Wireless n is supported

Appworld requires a link via RIM

As far as I know BlackBerrys only have 2.4 GHz radios for Wi-fi, their was one BlackBerry that worked at wireless A (5 GHz) but it an 8x20 model.

Says so here, per RIM: RIM: BlackBerry - Torch 9800 Slider Phone.

If your router has both modes, maybe it is defaulting to g?

App World does work on a wifi connection if there is a blackberry data plan on the device and the device is connecting to the RIM servers. I do it all the time.

I always thought so too, but when I tried it yesterday it was a no go. BB symbol and wifi only, said no network connection when the radio was off or no signal. Maybe a configuration issue? Don't see any way to change that though.

My guess is app world being flakey.
