Can someone tell me how to set an IP Adress on an XDA.
When I use the ping command I see that the XDA has IP Adress 192.168.55.101
But the network is 192.168.111.0/24
:?: :?
Those IP address are from active sync.
You may use passthough option in active sync to get access to that network.
When i connect my 8125 to my computer, i get the following error message
Pocket PC Networking
"unable to obtain a server assigned IP address. Try again later or enter an IP address in Network Settings"
Can somebody walk me through what I should do?

Getting the same here with my XDA Mini S, I have to unplug it and plug it back in for it to assign. Strange thing is that it still synchs???
I got those messages, too. I could sync fine, but the messags bugged me. You can Google the error message and find the answer at Microsoft.com, which is...
Settings -> Connections -> Network Cards -> Network Adapters (tab) -> Remote-NDIS Host
"Use specific IP address"
IP Address: 169.254.2.1
Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0
Default gateway: 169.254.2.2
My LAN uses 10.0.18.x addresses, but I think it's something between the device and ActiveSync.
thanks phoney, it works a treat.
I posted this question in the Networking Forum but got no replies. But here is my problem:
I messed around with the Network adapters settings, while trying to get WiFi to work properly.
Now everytime I connect to ActiveSync via USB, I get the error message, "Unable to obtain Server Assigned IP address". I am sure this is because I set one of the adapters to "Automatic IP", but I don't know which one. Moreso, my Wizard does not access the internet properly when connected via USB.
Could someone please tell me which adapter I wronged, and what setting its supposed to be?
i get this error message randomly. jus wen i wake it up the pop up will be there, i thaught it was jus a gprs error or something.
Same here :?
i´ve been getting the same message each time i plug my phone in to sync with my pc.
But now i put a IP adress in with my Wireless networkcard settings on the phone and the last time i synced the message didn´t show up anymore. Try that maybe it´ll help you too.
edit:
ok sorry, it didn´t work. Just got the same message when i synced the phone on my home pc.

Hi, make this:
Start > settings > connections > Network cards > Remote-NDIS Host > Click Use specific IP address
Enter 169.254.2.1 for IP address
Enter 255.255.0.0 for subnet
Enter 169.254.2.2
It functions on my Wizard...

My Wizard loves to give me this error message at random too. I'm curious as to exactly where it's trying to get a server assigned IP address from, and why.

Thanx Viking. Someone had replied my post in the Networking Forum with the same IPs as yours.
Thanx again
i would check you firewall aswell, cus that would block it out if it is not setup right. My does this everytime i get a update for the firewall!!!

Enjoy I had the same problem and found this solution in another discussion...
I found that this problem appears when you make ANY configuration changes in "Network Card"((
Hi, all,
I'm having the same problem with a Universal. Would this "fix" work also on my ppc?
Thanks

Yes, it should... It's a WM problem, not a problem of concrete machine.
tried this fix but it still does it.
Anyone got any other suggestions?
I did the same as you, messing around with settings.....
Anyway I think this is the procedure I did to screw it up.
Click Start, Settings, Connections, Network Cards, Network Adapters.
Then select Remote-NDIS host. The radio button to 'Use specific IP address' is selected but no IP address is entered. You can't exit this screen without either adding an IP address or selecting the 'Use server-assigned IP address' radio button'. If you select 'Use server-assigned IP address' the problem appears thereafter.
To fix it (or at least restore the defaults) you need to edit the registry:
HKLM\Comm\RNDISFN1\Parms\TcpIp\
Change the value of 'EnableDHCP' from 1 to 0.
That fixed it for me.

Firstly, I apologies if this has been asked/covered before, I have searched a bit hence the ?
When I connect my SPV M600 which is running a HTC rom to any computer through Active Sync (AS) either with a named profile or as a guest, I get this annoying pop up message!
"Pocket PC Networking
Unable to obtain a server-assigned IP address. Try again later or enter an IP address in network settings!
I don't know why this has just recently started happening, it may have something to do with me playing with the settings, when it first started!
So I go to Settings/Connections/Network Cards and see under Configure Network Adapters 'My network card connects to: The Internet'
Tap an adapter to modify settings:
I have tried to assign a 'specific' IP address to each 'Adapter' along the lines of 192.x.x.x 255.x.x.x etc
But still get the above message.
Also if the 'My Card connects' is set to 'Work' I still get it!
Hi,
Can any body help me in defining gateway address on my imate jasjam. I want to browse internet on my device and without defining gateway address, i am unable to do so.
I've used "wifi profiles" software and defined manual ip, gateway and dns but it is not retreiving gateway settings. At my workplace, there is a dhcp server which is automatically assigning an ip address to my device.
