Activesync is in place.
I want XDA2 to connect to the Internet via my LAN.
Is that at all possible?
Please help.
Have you enabled pass-thru in Active-Sync on your desktop client?

hi there ,ive just had a search on this forum on how to set this up but i cant really find anything?
anyway here goes what i would like to do is use my laptops dial-up internet connection from my xdaii via bluetooth? ive managed to get the devices talking but i dont really know how to set-up the xda from there to access my internet account?
do i need to have my laptop connected to the internet first then connect via bluetooth or does my laptop just need to be powered up?
:roll:
Do you mean that you want to browse the net on your XDA II through your lappie?
Due to the current Bluetooth stack on the XDA II, the only way to do this via Bluetooth is to set up ActiveSync via Bluetooth, then use the passthrough functionality of ActiveSync (which is sort of like using a proxy server - just make sure you enable the 'this network connects to the internet' option under your 'work' network on the XDA, and enable passthrough in ActiveSync.
There's a few good posts on setting up the connection, so do a search on this forum for 'bluetooth' and 'activesync'.
Finally I got it all done using my xdaII as modem and bluetooth for bridges...accessing from my laptop to surf the net.
Procedures are on the offical xda site, but then u do need a Bluetooth tool kit and set it as modem during bonding.
Hi guys!
Is it possible to surf the web with my Jam using the internet connection of my desktop pc (in office with lan connection and in house with dial-up!)?
Yes it is, you need to setup activesync over bluetooth however or activesync over Wifi with an add-in card.
There are a lot of guides around on how to do it with bluetooth!
Well!
With only the USB cable is not possible?
Yes it's possible with AS via USB. I've been doing it a long time ago. I don't really surf but I use it to update currency and weather in WorldMate Pro.
zerimar, can you explain me how can I do it please?
There's nothing special. As long as there's a working USB connection between the PPC and AS, open your browser and type in the url.
... not quite yet!
You have to go to connection settings within AS and set "this computer is connected with" to "internet"
then you can surf with your mdac via usb

I don't see what you mean coz I didn't need to do anything in AS Connection Settings.
Hello,
I dont think you need any extra settings to be done. Just have your PC connected to the net and Synchronize your device with active sync and open Pocket ie...Thats it i do!

I know what he means cause i got the same problem, one of my 2 pc connections (one work one home) the work one has a corp lan proxy. ive got only one application that can connect thru the firewall which is Egress RSS reader.
is there anyway to give the proxy link plus username and password like you can in egress to the connection details on the phone or within activesync somewhere?
ive seen on other forums people asking the same thing.
hey all.
thx 4 all the help,advice n guides here.
i have a htc prophet n a windows xp laptop. heard that u can use gprs via bluetooth to connect to internet on pc.howd u do that.plz outline.
You're probably confused... You have to establish an activesync connection by bluetooth and then you'll have access to the web... Just like using the cable but slower...
and how do u setup the active bluetooth connection?
You just have to activate the 'modem link' on the PPC. In Vista at least, all I do is create a new modem connection using the bluetooth modem on the PPC and dial *99#. Pretty simple....
In some ROMs there is an Internet Sharing Option....just activate it, select Bluetooth PAN & connect to the device from PC
could some1 plz outline the steps for setting up the connection, coz all i hear is 'murmuring' ..plz,am still new to all this ppc stuff
Look at the Wiki - start at here's a hint: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_USBModem
Hello friends!
I spent about 2 days on my phone wondering and trying to get internet connection on my Prophet...So I did it!It's like this:
When you connect your Prophet via USB it will show you new connection....
Go to Start/Control Panel/Network Connections and than click on left side "Set up a home or a small office Network"...So when you finish the wizard,restart your computer (do not disconnect Prophet) and it will work...It was the only way for me to get Internet Connection...I hope I helped someone just like others helped me...Greetings!
can i use GPRS surf the internet with laptop(not with the phone), is there any setting in order to surf the web? thanks!
I think It's not worth it...In Slovenia,where I live,GPRS is at least 10times more expencive than tipycal cable NET...Some of my friends tryed to connect laptop to NET by smartphone,but the speed in really low and also phone bill was shocking...So get standard internet...Greetings!
Hello
I hope this is the right place.
I own a wizard i was wondering if it is possible to browse the net with my phone, using my desktop's internet connection.
i dont have wifi so i am talking about using the data sync cable for that.
i am running Xp pro.
Thanks in advance
J
I belive when the wizard is connected to your pc via the usb sync cable
it uses pass through to allow u to use your pcs internet connection.
thus alowing u to surf the web from the wizard .
hope this helps
it is also possible to configure activesync bluetooth connection. it gives you a possibility to use a desktop internet connection, bt may be complicated to configure. if you want (if you have bt on your desktop) i can give more details.
doh
thanks for the fast response.

Actually, it is possible to use Bluetooth PAN for Internet sharing (Both PC->Wizard or Wizard->PC), no need to establish ActiveSync connection.
Hi,
is it possible to create a network with a laptop and a usb-cable-connected PDA?
I would like to use the remote desktop on the Omnia without using bluetooth OR WiFi.
Thanks,
Jens
