connecting 5230 to home broadband

I have brought my daughter (11 yr old) a 5230.

 

Is it possible to connect a 5230 to our home broadband?  We have sky and it is on WPA secuity.

 

It would be cheaper than allowing her to surf on networks!!  Any help would b appreciated.

 

I am not a technical wizz and would really appreciate the help.  Thanks.

Unfortunately that is not possible because you have bought a phone that does not have wi-fi so it cannot use your wireless router.

If you want to use wi-fi you will need to sell the phone and buy another that supports it, for example the popular 5800 that looks almost identical to the 5230.

Other recent mid-low price models that support wi-fi: C5-03, C3-01, C6-01, X3-02, X5-01, C3-00, C6-00, E5-00, X6-00.
