There are so many wifi signals where I live that the smart phone occasionally locks on to another one which isn't "open" as it appears to be, but requires a password on a website to get in. Hence, appears to be locked on, isn't. Check your system and if you are on the wrong wifi hit "disconnect and forget."
Secondly the good old standby: RESET ROUTER and try again. I've had to do this twice this week.
HTC Wildfire and an excellent product it is too !
