I've downloaded the WiShield 1.3.0 library and the dataflash library and have placed them both under the "C:\Program Files\Arduino\arduino-0017\hardware\libraries" folder (named WiShield and dataflash as noted in the directions). This gives me 8 example sketches, most of which do not build for me. Here are my results:

Flash builds.
SimpleClient throws an error stating that GETrequest does not name a type.
SimpleServer throws several errors, most of which state that there is an undefined reference to 'WiServer'.
SimpleTweeter throws an error stating TWEETrequest does not have a type.
SocketApp, UDPApp, and WebClient all throw the same errors: There are conflicting types for uip_tcp_appstate_t and that it has been previously declared.
WebServer builds.

So of the 8 examples that come with the library, only two build for me regardless of whether I change anything (network information, etc) or not. Can anyone tell me what is wrong with my setup?

Also, of the two that do build, when I put my network information into the local_ip, gateway_ip, subnet_mask, security_type, ssid, and security_passphrase, it still won't connect to my AP. I don't see a connection light appear on the shield either. What kind of debugging steps can I do to figure out why it isn't connecting?

Please read through the example sketches portion of the wiki; it will explain what changes you need to make each of the sample apps compile/run. Specifically changing apps-conf.h (for all app types) and uip-conf.h (for UDP apps).

Regarding non connection - have you checked the compatible access point list to see if your AP is known good or bad? Have you tried with a different encryption type?

Thanks for pointing out the wiki pages. I'll try those modifications in a bit.
As for the connection... While testing, I was connected to the AP with my IPhone. I know that it connected with either WPA or WPA2. I tried both of those with the shield using the same settings as my phone. No dice.
