I am having the same problem - can't find internet connection. I've removed
other "networking" connections (such as vmware), hard-coded the ip values
(including the dns numbers) and still no success. The "activation" is
definitely broken at this point, as far as I'm concerned. I've even gone so
far as to go into IE and tell it explicitly that my internet is via an
always-on connection etc.

I'm getting a message that they're doing maintenance on the system, so maybe
things will straighten up shortly. It would help, however, if they'd include
the phone option on the registration application.

I am just glad to see that I'm not alone here. I will stop trying to
diagnose the problem on my end until I here that you folks have been able to
register/activate your beta.

I have tried numerous times with no results. Disable your firewall and you
will get the message that the activiation server is down (something to that
effect). I have only 48 more tries left. I hope they get it activated soon.
