- Usually, tablets aren't phones and don't have SIM cards.
- Entering "an IP-address" doesn't say much. I never have to enter an IP-address in a portable device to connect to a network. But I have to enter a WPA-key before it works, unless I'm at a public hotspot.
So more info please:
1. Link to the specifications of the product.
2. More info on what IP-address you entered into what program or app or setting.
