Is there a way to set-up more than one IP address for the Wi-Fi network card on a BA device. I need to connect to the wireless network at school :twisted: and to my local access point at work. However, everytime I need to do that, I have to change my IP address accordingly. So I was thinking if I could configure 2 IP addresses on the same network card, this would be eliminated (It is possible on NT systems thru the TCP/IP properties and on 95 Kernels thru the registry).
I have HitchHiker installed, which manages wireless access points, but it's just useless!

Hi guys,
I don’t know you guys can help me or not well My problem is
I’m trying to connect my I-Mate PDA2k to Senao Wireless Assess point my access point connected with my network switch .My access point showing WAN light and on my mobile also showing “W” its mean PDA getting signals but I can’t access internet from my PDA.
I don’t know how to configure access point I took access point without catalog and serial cord I don’t we use serial cord or not.
In simple words I want 2 access internet without GPRS.
Information:
SENAO
2-port switch wireless router printer server
SL-2511SR PLUS(F200)
MAC 005018578BO
I-Mate PDA2k Microsoft
OS windows 2003 CE
Local network
IP Class Local = 192.168.0.XX
Internet Sharing = ON
Look for help on configuring your the Senao web site for configuring your wireless router: www.senao.com.tw. I have an access point and it's working like a charm with my Blue Angel.
If you don't have a DHCP server or you have not configured your wireless router as a DHCP server, follow these procedures on your PDA:
Tap Start, Settings, Connections (tab), Network Cards (icon), Network Adapters (tab), tiacxwln Compatible Wireless Etherne....
Then check: Use specific IP address. You'll need to set values for IP Address, Subnet mask, and Default gateway. You IP address should be (quoting you) something like 192.168.0.xxx and subnet mask is probably 255.255.255.0
Also be sure to tap on Name Servers, and fill in the info there, you'll need a DNS address to access the Internet.
Finally, to configure your proxy server, go back to Connections, Advanced, Select Networks, and create a new connections and configure the proxy server accordingly, if it exists. If you're supposed to connect thru SecureNAT (ie Default gateway), you can simply ignore this step, or create a network profile that "connects you to the Internet" without specifying a proxy server.
hi guys, any help you can give is realy apreciated,
ive never used wifi before on my exec or in a home network so treat me as a beginer. ive got a pci wifi network card and i am trying to set it up so i can use my mda pro when i am at home. my computer is currently connected to my housemates wired network which is a simple set up
bb modem......

like i said nothing fancy, i installed the network card which went fine and bridged my network connections together as advised by my large local computer retailer. my computer asked me to provide a name and network key so i did. my pc is now connected to my mda pro.
and in the wifi it displays
main
status connected to network
ssid: cusnet *thats what i entered as my network name*
tx rate:auto
mode: ad hoc
channel:6
bssid:00-71-0e-71-29-00

half in power save
turn off not on
leap
nothing entered
...............................
every so often i get the following
*unable to obtain a server assigned ip address, try later or enter an ip address in network settings*
i cant get any internet based app to work and i am asumeing its due to the settings, any help is gonna be soooo apreciated
i dont want to subscribe to wifi in the city if i cant get it working in my own home lol
any one think this might be a network problem ?
ive posted a few questions on network forums but no reply yet
i am lost
:?
From the info that you have given, it looks like your universal is getting an incorrect ip address. What you need to do is check what your desktop ip address and gateway is. Then give your universal and ip in the same range as the desktop ip and also add the gateway to your device. It should wotk this way !
The best option would be to get a wireless access point instead of the wireless network card and set things up like this.
....bb modem......

The wireless access point plugges directly into the router rather than connecting through your PC.
If you don't fancy the above setup then you could use internet connection sharing. You'll need to remove the bridge between your network cards and ensure that the router,your PC and friends PC's isn't using 192.168.0.x IP addresses.
Then you can select ICS (tick the allow other computers to access internet...) on your network card's (one to the router) advanced properties and select your wireless NIC as your home network connection.
I hope this isn't too heavy I've resisted the temptation to start talking about subnets, NAT, DHCP and all the other networking terms.
i wants to know how can i access some unsecured network that are near my work place. Basically there are some unsecured network near my work, i have tried to connect to these networks so that i can use internet. However i have no luck in accessing it.
Do i need to enter any ip address in the network adapter or the ip address is automatically taken????
At the moment i have assigned the ip address to 192.168.1.201 so that i can connect to my orange live box.
Thanks in advance
it depend on the wifi router setup
as default it run dhcp and asign you an ip
but that can be turned off
some wifi's require a login to the internet isp's site or telnet to open for internet (i know my home one does)
also you cant really see if a wifi router use mac filtering
for security then it will just not route for you if your mac add is not on it's list
Hi, I recently got my first WM device with Wi-fi (T-Mobile Vario III). I've been trying to get Wi-fi working with my network, but it doesn't seem to want to play!
I'm using WPA with AES, and using 802.1X authentication (my access point connects to my FreeRADIUS server). The same Linux box that runs the RADIUS server also runs the DHCP server for the network.
I'm using EAP-TLS authentication for the network (I based the setup for the network on this http://wiki.freeradius.org/WPA_HOWTO).
I've installed my root CA cert and intermediate CA cert (not covered in the howto, but I prefer to use and intermediate 'working' CA "just in case" ) on the Vario III. I also generated a client certificate/key for the Vario and installed it successfully on the device.
I then went on to Settings->Connections->Wi-fi and chose to add a new connection and did the following:
1) Entered the network name (SSID) and selected the "This is a hidden network" checkbox (also set it to be connecting to "The Internet" - I had to go to the network adapters tab as well and set the wi-fi adapter to be "The Internet" from "Work")
2) Selected authentication to be WPA and Data Encryption to be AES.
3) Selected the EAP type to be "Smart Card or Certificate" and went to properties. In the properties box I was shown the only personal certificate I have (i.e. the client certificate that I just installed for network authentication)
I then connect to the network, and get a User Name/Domain dialog (I don't really understand why). This is pre-populated with my name, but I've tried the following in this box (the only way to get it back after having entered something appears to be a hard reset - but there must be another way?):
1) The default provided (i.e. my name)
2) The CN for the personal certificate
3) Nothing
In each case I leave the 'Domain' field empty. With all three of the above the FreeRADIUS server reports successful authentication and the Vario III appears to be connected to the network. If I go to Settings->Connections->Wireless LAN, on the Advanced tab it says that it is 'Associated to network'
The problem is that even though I'm connected to the network and have been allocated an IP address (I have my DHCP server assign a specific IP address to specific MAC addresses), I cannot connect to any websites - I don't have anything over than Pocket IE installed on the device yet. I can't even connect to the management page for the AP that the Vario III is connected to.
This setup works perfectly from a WinXP box.
Has anyone got any ideas on what could be going wrong, or advise on how I can troubleshoot? Anyone know if there are logs stored on the device for wireless connectivity (either a log file or something like the event viewer in XP)?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
Hi,
I have WiFi setup and running on my device, XDA Orbit, using WPA and AES.
First of all, whilst inside the Network Adapters tab, make sure that:
'My network card connects to': WORK
Secondly, in 'tap adapter to modify settings' you'll need to click on a particular network adapter card inorder to configure it.
In my case, I chose the SDIO WLAN Wireless Adapter. I then clicked the radio button 'Use specific IP address' and configured the IP address of my device, exactly as it is assigned in my Netgear wireless router.
If you haven't assigned a specific IP address to your device, just click the radio button next to 'Use server-assigned IP address'.
On the 'Advanced' tab of Wireless LAN, mine also reads 'Associated to network' as the status. It also has the MAC address of my device, followed by its IP address. The three fields were all filled up automatically, by the router. I never filled this up. However, I configured the router with the necessary details.
Troubleshooting:
1. Ping your device from your PC or notebook.
The idea is to be able to see if there is communication between your router and the device.
Example: at c:\>ping ......... (.....being the name or IP address of your device as entered in the router)
2. If you have a firewall, disable it now and ping again. This step is necessary because the firewall could be stopping your device from connecting to the router if it is not configured in the firewall's access list.
3. Go to your PC/notebook and type: ipconfig /all at the command prompt.
Hopefully, you should see the device's name come up as well as other parameters, including its MAC address.
4. Ensure that the device is allowed access to your internal network and configured as such, inside the router, using MAC address filtering. This means that you MUST ensure that the correct MAC address of the device has been entered.
Summary:
1. Configure your device inside the router - name/mac address or name/IP address
2. Configure your firewall to accept connections from the device
3. Ping the device as well as the router
4. If you have another computer, try and see if you can connect to the router from there.
5. Ensure that the router, PC or PPC are all on the same subnet. This is crucially important for communication amongst the devices.
By typing ipconfig /all, you will be able to determine as to whether all the computers as well as the PPC on your network are on the same subnet.
Many a network have failed through this problem.
Hope this helps.

I can`t go into the Web via T-Mobile after I went into the web via WLAN
My wlan configuration is as follows:
network: Broadcom 802 DHD etc...
IP: I must put it in
Subnet 255.255.0.0
Standardgateway 172.16.1.1
DNS 172.16.1.1
Only when I erase the configuration I can go into the Web via T-Mobile but then
I can`t go into the Web visa WLAN
Crazy
What I get is that there is a "DNS error" when I try to go into the web via T-Mobile....
Is the challenge to guess your Windows version, ROM and installed applictions, browsers etc?
There's a thread for Q&A's, this is ROM Development.
Windows version: WM 6.1
ROM: The original rom from HTC
browsers: opera and IE
Pls help me because all WLAN and T-Mobile codes seem to be right
Although you dind't specify anything about the ROM and OS version you have, I can tell you a little about the way IP addresses work and why you're not having internet.
Every computer on the internet has an IP address and that is used to identify it. However there are on a home network more than one computer, so you have a router that re-routes your internet through it's own range of IP addresses. Meaning you get an IP from your provider, which your router stores, and your router gives all computers in a network an IP address. This way every computer in your network can connect to the internet without the ISP having to give you more than one IP address.
Normally routers work with a technique called DHCP, dynamic host configuration protocol, which allows all computers in the network to communicate and share addresses. So without having to enter information manually a computer knows that the DNS is 172.16.1.1 (for example) and that it's IP is 172.16.1.*. If you disable this technique you must enter the information manually.
This isn't a problem until you need to connect to more than one network. Since every network has it's own set of IP ranges, it's own DNS, etc. So when you connected to your WiFi and manually entered information for your home network you disabled the ability to connect to T-Mobile yourself. Since the IP you get from T-Mobile isn't the same as you use in your WiFi network.
The other way around is the same, when you connect to T-Mobile your getting an IP address assigned automatically, howevery our WiFi network doesn't give you one automatically and thus resulting in no internet connection.
I hope that made sense to you, kept it as simple as possible. Also I hope you can fix the problem... normally you can do that by enabling DHCP in your router by logging in into the device. (You usually do this by entering the IP address of the default gateway into your webbbrowser.)

KilZone - thank you so much for your kind answer !!!
I do only have an access point no router ?
Is this possible too ?
I think the access point functions as a router too, not sure about that, but you can try by entering the default gateway into your browser and see where you end up.
