Connect to internet with BlackBerry simulator
May 13th, 2011
When I used the BlackBerry simulator I was unable to connect to internet from the build-in browser. In order to enable internet access, follow the steps below.
BB menu -> Manage Connections -> Setup Wifi network
The wifi wizard starts.
Choose Next ->Manually Add Network
Enter “Default WLAN Network” as SSID and choose Add
Choose “No security” and pick Connect
Pick Save (do not choose for connect, since this fails).
Pick Next
Done!

It turns out that the method described above also works when a BlackBerry prompts for a PIN code in an open network. Just enter the name (SSID) of the open network as the network name and your BlackBerry can connect to an open network without entering a PIN code.
