VoIP Client for XDA2?

Hi. Does anyone know of a good VoIP tapplications that runs on XDA2? Thanks

You could try this one:

Jos,
Thanks for the link. This application looks great! Have you had much luck with it? What I'm trying to do is to uise my XDA to make long distance calls to my family while I travel overseas. Assumption here is that I am on a WiFi connection to broadband or using flat-rate GPRS. Not sure if GRPS bandwidth will suffice but I'm willing to give it a go. Few questions if you don't mind.
Which application on the PC have you had best success with?
How do you cope with NAT? When I connect to GPRS for example the pda application thinks I'm on 10.250.xxx.yyy but the actual IP my XDA is pingable from outside is 203.126.xxx.yyy... Similar applies to my PC where I hookup a brouadband router which lets me share my link amongst few PCs at home. I can open up certain ports on the router and forward these to the right IP/PC in the home network but I need to figure out the ports used... Any chance to get this without resolving to trusty old vxSniffer?
Apologies if I bombarded you with these questions and also to the rest of the fellow forum members. I think this may be taken as a slightly off-topic post but on the other hand it is related to networking on the XDA so I hope it does not offend anyone.

Sandisk SD WIFI card & IE not working?

Hi all,
Could someone please tell me why I can connet to my wireless network at home, but I can't view any web pages or download any emails on my XDA II!!
Any help would be greatly recieved!!
Cheers Guys

Works fine for me mate..
Things to check.
1) XDAII Has an ip address assigned to it within the correct subnet for your home wifi.
2) XDAII Has the correct default gateway configured which will either be your wireless access router, or another type of router you have that provides internet access.
3) That your XDAII can see the network available to it through the start, setting, connections, connections, advanced, network card bit. Make sure that you actually tell it to connect to your network too. If you can't see it and you are sure the wifi card is installed ok, make sure that you have enabled SSID broadcast on your WAP.
Let us know how you get on.
Rgds,
Rob.

rob,
what do you mean, "make sure you have sidd enabled on you wap" ??
i have beeb trying to get this to work for days..
lmk m8
Zetex

He means..
He means that your Wireless accesspoint should have broadcast SSID enabled. If you have not intentionaly disabled it, it is most likely that it is enabled and thus not the issue. Is your wireless WEP encrypted? If it is, did the Pocketpc ask you specifically for the WEP encryption key when it found your network?

----------------------------------
I am using a XDA II. Having received a faulty 'backpack', now replaced, I am still trying to get it to connect through a Sandisk CF Wi-Fi card to a D-Link 900+ AP hanging off an Intel router and my Linux server. In desperation I connected the CF card through a PCMICA adaptor into my notebook. After tweaking the 900+ AP (using v. 2.61 firmware), I found that it liked 64kb WEP, SSID on, Channel 11, Infrastructure (not Ad Hoc), and left on fully automatic so D-Link 650 Wi-Fi card in my notebook runs at 22 Mbps, and the Sandisk card at 11 Mbps.
But does it run in the XDA II you ask? Nope! I think that Sandisk's software leaves a lot to be desired. I am using vxIPConfig and vxUtil tools to see what is what ... but to no effect. I would gladly flick the Sandisk card now I know their software is lacking.
Any clues from other users?

Driving me nuts
Sorry not to actually come up with answers, but I thought you might gather some comfort from the fact that my XDA II/Sandisk combo is driving me nuts too. You are not alone....!
First thing I did was remove the pre-installed Socket wifi s/w and install the Sandisk stuff, but although my XDA can happily see my network, it will not log on no matter what I seem to do.
Am going to review some of the other helpful posts here and try the tips and will report back......!

The CD-ROM that came with mine seems to have been designed for WinCE, and not Mobile Windows 2003 for the PPC. As a result I cannot get rid of the Sandisk 128M+WiFi CompactFlash Card settings from the 'Configure Network Adaptors' area. I have to go in via my PC and ActiveSync (3.7) and rename the two offending .dll files before the CD-ROM software removes the drivers. I manually delete the renamed .dll.old files from the XDA II.
Sandisk seem pretty useless. I let them know of these problems and the link they gave me was to the straight wireless LAN card ... That didn't work, so go figure!
I am told the Sockets drivers out of the UK are better (for basically the same card), however, their FTP site does not work .. some say it hasn't worked since April 2004. More useless information, except that their docs. leave Sandisk for dead!
I keep wondering what the so-called 'Zero Configuration' tools that are supposed to be part of Mobile Windows 2003 actually do? I just can't see why the Sandisk card works with my D-Link DWL-900AP+ (802.11b/g) and with my ancient Airport access points on my notebook, but not on the XDA II on the rare occasions that I get the blinking green light (very rare and I don't know why???). <sigh!>

Internet Sharing problem

Here's my problem. I'm trying to run uTorrent and everything is slooooow. I've noticed my IP address on my laptop as 192.168.0.102 and my external is very different. I think that is my problem, NAT or something. Is there any way to forward ports on the 8525 or to put myself into a DMZ like my home router?
I've searched and searched and maybe I'm just retarded, I suppose that could be the whole issue at hand. I also made sure that I'm logged into isp.cingular so that shouldn't be the issue at hand.
Hopefully someone can help me, thanks for the time.
Taylor.

1) Why would you want to run a torrent program over a mobile network. It would be really slow, especially compared to cable. Plus you're going to bog down the wireless network and probably end up getting your account suspended or end up with insane data charges for using so much data. I'm pretty sure it is against which ever provider's TOS you have that you can not use their network for that type of activity.
2) You have no control over port forwarding or anything of that nature. Your phone's data connection is behind your provider's "main" access point. They control the ports and how the internal addressing works.

It is..it specifically states the use of file sharing or P2P apps is not allowed... they dont even allow you to tether without a laptop connect plan..you think theyre gonna let you get away with running a torrent app for long before your account gets flagged?

Well just for the sake of information then I'll post what I tried and found out. I downloaded the 9/21/06 rom from the wiki and reflashed it so I could try Wireless Modem again instead of Internet Sharing and guess what...
Internet Sharing gives an internal IP of 192.168.0.102
Wireless Modem gives an internal IP that matches my external IP but still does not allow incoming connections.
So Internet Sharing does give the internal IP NOT my provider.
To respond about the tethering, I'm not getting the laptop connect plan because then I wouldn't be able to browse on my phone, hence negating the whole damn reason that I bought my 8525, so I can browse the internet while sitting in parking lots waiting on calls. My home cable connection costs what I pay a month for internet access on my phone you better believe I'll use it the same way.

PS A moderator is more than welcome to close this now as my original question has been answered by me. Thanks.

I have the same issue with the 192.168.0.102 and it sets default gateway to 192.168.0.1. This never happend with the other rom and it kills my local network because it's 192.168.0.0:255.255.255.0.
Also on the tether speed being slow! I am getting about 800-900 k, I don't call that slow and my plan is unlimited and is no longer available so I can't change anything or I loose it. I have downloaded many many gig and never flagged or cut off.
I would like to find out how to stay with the newer rom and internet sharing and just change what IP's it uses rather than change my whole network config.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Torrenting on the 8525
I just got my 8525 and I just started to try and torrent on the network. Is your unlimited data plan with AT&T\Cingular? Just curious as I was also concerned about the ramifications.

WiFi client detection software?

Hi, thanks in advance for help.
I have someone leeching off my Wifi net, who seems to be able to 'break-in' no matter how i secure the WiFi net.
Anyone know of any free Windows Mobile software that will show signal strength of Wifi CLIENTS nearby. Not Access Points, but CLIENTs.
I want to go find this guy.
thanks

Hi there!
If you got an "leecher" on your network I would recommend you to start your search on your router.
You didn't provide any specs, how did you find out that someone is on your network?
Next question, have you changed both, router pass and wlan key?
Are u using weak encryption (wep)?
Whats about your mac-filter?active?
I would guess you've got an dhcp server on your network/router... go there and check the dhcp releases. Any suspicious entrys? You should know all the devices listed there. If you have found a IP you don't know, ping it and check if its alive (those packages can be ignored by the host), try to access it via smb, you could also try a demo of languard and try to read out details like os, user, owner...
I'm almost shure you can't use your wm device to locate a client of a network, unless you can switch your wlancard to ap-mode and he connects to you ^^

Nope, need signal strenght reader if poss.
Thanks for the comment, but I'm pretty security savvy, and have done most of what you recommend.
I actually can't believe he's still getting in when I've locked down so tight.
Anyway, it's a CLIENT signal strengh program that I'm trying to find.

Rogue clients are malicious wireless client devices that either try to gain illegitimate access to your WLAN or try to disrupt normal wireless service by launching attacks. There are numerous ready-to-launch wireless attack tools freely available on the net. Many of them are open sourced and work pretty well with most Wireless client cards. This turns any curious mind to professional hacker in minutes. Many do it simply for the pleasure of being able to disturb someone remotely. All these developments force WLAN administrators to give a second look at any wireless client that is misbehaving.

What means most of that what i recommended?
Did you actually change the router password AND the wlan key?
Sorry, I don't think that you can trace him with your mobile. as long as hes not connected to your mobilephones wireless network (wich requires your mobile wlan device to switch to ap-mode).
Forget about that.
Please tell us, why do you think somebody is on your network, how did you find out... whats the "evidence" for you that there is somebody.
I'd like to help u, but i need some further details to lock him out.
I hope you know that its just a matter of minutes to break a wep key. GPUs are used to decode it, which is damn fast!
So please provide more specs about your network.
Greetings

1: Use WPA instead of WEP.
WEP is crackable in a matter of seconds.
2: Assign access control/MAC filtering
3: Use your network in ad-hoc mode
Well, WPA is crackable too.
The person in question might change his MAC to yours and create collisions anyways

Can you be sure that he has really associated with your router. I have noticed some client/router combinations "apparently" associate but all traffic is blocked because they did not provide the right key.
As others say - use WPA WPA2 and use a strong (non dictionary) passphrase
get a computer that can run airodump or something similar.
run airodump with it set to the channel of you router - not in hopping mode as you will miss lots of packets.
Airodump will tell you the strength of the signal from his computer so if you have this on a laptop you can move around and possibly can an idea roughly where he is

Thank you, i will try Airodump
Thanks in particular Scote.
I didn't list the router config simply becuase I am confident it's pretty secure:
Router is a new Belkin N1
- 63 random char password from grc.com/passwords
- SSID is "netgear" even though its a Belkin : intention to mislead for access URL.
- WPA2-PSK AES encryption
- SSID not broadcasting
I didn't bother with MAC filtering, as I understand a good 'hacker' can spoof it : If this guy can get through WPA2 I would say he can probably MAC spoof.
My 'evidence', is that up to 3 unkown computers turn up on the 'Clients List', around 4 hours after I change the SSID/password : Each time.
I have 2 laptops, so I will try Airodump or maybe Backtrack (suggested elswhere) on these as a 'direction finder' based on signal strength.
Hmmm...I did read somewhere you can set a Kaiser to be an access point...
Thanks all

Yes you can.
Someone found his stolen Wii/mobile phone (don't remember which one) that way.
There was even an article on the net.

Faceniff anyone?

Has anyone tried faceniff on the atrix yet?

yeah it works. lol.

Such a vague post. Whats it all about? Details maaan!

theres always google

I meant on the Atrix which is the forum I am posting in

It works well on the Atrix. I have it and it does seem to work.
Scott

Does anyone know it works on WPA and WPA2? Are they forcing the client re-associate to the AP to sniff the initial key negotiation?

Works on WPA2 here. Does not work on EAP though I don't think.

Hmmm does anyone here has an unlocked version? 0.o

Works great for me *edit: on the Atrix*. I asked the dev about putting the unlocked on Market or Amazon (dont like paypal). He said it was removed from the Market and he will look into Amazon.

If he releases some code(maybe he already has, haven't looked), this could open likes of similar apps. I especially like the idea of an Atrix as a wireless monitoring device since it has 5ghz, unlike almost all other phones.

I bought it and got it unlocked. This is more for curiosity's sake than actually hacking. I live out in the country. Not much for open wifi out here.
Scott

I went to a Starbucks today after getting the app, and I couldn't get it to work there.
Not sure if it has to do with the AT&T Wifi at starbucks, but I'm going to do more testing with it.

Did you try stealth mode, I guess some routers are built to monitor that kind of intrusion and stealth mode is the work around

Faceniff has nothing to do with open vs WEP vs WPA vs WPA2 encryption on the network afaik(I haven't used it, but I read about it). It wont break encryption. My guess is that its doing a simple ARP poisoning attack, routing all network traffic through your phone before it goes out the router, then just filtering for unencrypted facebook/tsitter/etc. packets.
This has been around for years. What's new is that its been ported to a mobile phone and been made accessible to the masses.
Be careful using this guys, your network traffic leaves a trace, and I'm not sure if facesniff spoofs your mac address. You could get in big trouble if you get caught.

I understand that you already have to be connected to the AP to do this but... as I understand it with WPA and WPA2 they negotiate session keys so that each connection uses a different key. Hence you cant decrypt another persons traffic. The key is negotiated in the beginning and if you can capture that negotiation, then you can decrypt the traffic.
Does faceniff only monitor new connections and then see if they log into one of those sites? or does it actively try and disassociate people from the AP so they have to reconnect.

Was using it on my home wifi. Was able to hack into mine and my gfs facebook accounts. Then i monitored my neighbors open wifi (tard) and was able to get into his. Told him to put a password on his wifi because of security. I think this is a real eye opener into the world of internet security. Really interesting app. Pretty scary. But yea, using this at school is a bad idea. I was just doing some packet sniffing at college and i got a nasty email saying that if i was doing anything nefarious i could be expelled. So remember: USE STEALTH =)

Hey there,
could someone send me a PM where to get this app.
THX!

No poisoning needed. Wifi works the same as a hub. If you're associated to the network, you'll see all the traffic. Now there are ways to try to stop this, ap isolation, and whatnot, but it's radio, so there's really no way around it.
