Using the XDA II as Modem with IrDa

Hi
I have been trying to use my XDA II as a modem and every time I try it give me a error. Error 692 Hardware Failure..
Can anyone pleasr help me with this?

I have a similar problem, please help!

I stopped trying via IRDA and set it up via the USB Sync cable, using GPRS. Works like a charm.
I was going cross-eyed trying to make it work and it wouldn't. Took about 15 minutes with the cable.

Is not working with the USB cable either
I had followed the instruction on PPC website (which seems identical to those on the XDA II official website):

but no luck... I'm still getting an error message... usually 732,
have you done anything different?
Please help Thx,
Chris

Did you successfully install the HTC USB Modem?
Was ActiveSync closed down, as it must be?
Did you use the USB Dialler program to make the connection?
Did it show the HTC USB Modem?
Was GPRS connected on the XDA?
Did you enter the correct User ID and Password?
A friend of mine tells me they're not necessary, as it works off your IMEI code, I've never tried it without them.

Dear ardarby,
Thank you for your help... here are my answers.
Did you successfully install the HTC USB Modem?
Yes
Was ActiveSync closed down, as it must be?
More than that: I disable USB a mean for active Sync to connect to the device, both on the PC and on the PPC
Did you use the USB Dialler program to make the connection?
Yes
Did it show the HTC USB Modem?
Yes
Was GPRS connected on the XDA?
I think so... how do I see it
Did you enter the correct User ID and Password?
Yes
A friend of mine tells me they're not necessary, as it works off your IMEI code, I've never tried it without them.
I am now getting an error which is something like error 734... any clue?
Thanks,
Chris

Question: Connecting to the internet via serial port?

I have a T-Mobile Pocket PC phone(more information in my profile). I have a USB and Serial port cable for it as well. Is there anyway I can use my serial or usb cable to connect to the internet on my main computer, but using the connection from my phone. Someone from another forum told me this forum had a solution, but I have no idea what to search for.
Thanks in advance!

The main key is using the Wireless Modem software.
Read this for a long history

Good news: You can also upgrade to the 2003 version of pocketPC
4.01.12 ENG O2euro from
http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/
which include a WModem too for 2003 version.

Thanks for your help! I almost have it working...I'm just having trouble installing the ROM version.

Use Universal under Linux as UMTS modem

I would like to use my MDA pro as Modem under Linux (Ubuntu 5.10).
I tried it with USB connection and with Bluetooth, both with no luck.
My Question is, wether someone got this working and if yes, I would like to ask then also for a kind of howto, please.

umts modem
HI, I connect my universal via bluetooth under linux to /dev/rfcomm0 by using rfcomm tools. Next I run pppconfig tool to create a new connection, dialed number is *99# username and password - none..
On universal
1] start wireless modem over bluetooth
On linux box
1] # pon connectionname
tail -f /var/log/messages -- look at this for debug
connection may works fine for me..
at first can you pair your device with linux of course
sorry for my bad english..

hi!
i'm a linux newbie and have some problems to get my mda connected via usb to an ubuntu 5.10 distribution.
could someone please explain me how to use rfcomm? when i connect the mda, how can i find out name, port and mac adress of the device?
is there a tool out there, which shows me some informations for attached usb devices?
it would be very nice if someone could give me a step-by-step instruction for connecting my mda correctly to my pc and connecting both via umts to the internet.
on windows i got the usb-modem dialer which allows me to enter an apn. how do i handle this under ubuntu?
sorry for the newbie questions and my bad english. anyhow i hope someone would help me.
many thanks and best regards
sebone

If your bluetooth is working correctly, you have to set a rfcomm device.
# hcitool scan
this show you mac address of your bt device
# rfcomm connect 0 MAC channel
this can make a node rfcomm0 in /dev
instead of channel you can type number from 1 to x
I don't remember exact number of channel..
right number can test for example with minicom.

thanks for your reply but i need to get it working via usb connection.
is anybody able to help me in this case?
thank you very much.

usb modem
However, I'am didn't find any usb modem linux drivers for universal ..
BT is best choice for now.
