network connections: now I see them, now I don't

Please help:
When I go into start-settings-connections-commections all my list of network connections are there, including my ISP connection
when I go to my inbox and ask it to get my mail it dumps the current connection (if there is one), then tells me there are no connections available in a message bubble. if I select the 'settings' link from the bubble it takes me to the connections page which is now empty!!
the connections are still there when I go to the connections page via the start menu!
Any ideas what is going on??? :shock:
also: how do I stop inbox from dumping the current connection and using it instead??

Set up proxy & port settings for WLAN! H E L P

Hello! I have a problem with WLAN. I couldn't find where to set up my proxy and port settings for WLAN. If I go to the start > settings > conections I can't set up a wireless network, just 3g, bluetooth etc. (but there are settings for proxy), but if I go to start > settings > network cards and then tap Add new there are just options that i need exept those two. Help me please!
P.S. I have WM5 and Qtek 9000 (HTC Unversal)

OK, after about 10 minute trying, I finally get it done.
When you select one AP name in Wi-Fi setting,it will ask which profile will the connection connects to.( I use Chinese version, I guess it will be "Default Internet" and "Default Company" ).The two connection is the two you select in setting->connection->connection->advance tab, the upper is "Internet" the lower is "Company", and you can make a new profile here using the "New" button,here you will find proxy setting and enter some proxy , because you are just using this profile in wi-fi ,so the "moderm" can be left blank.
When you have done the setting, you can turn on Wi-Fi, browse some web site, in taskMgr(additional application I installed) you will find the ppc has establish a tcp connection to the proxy server you set up.

Blocking Data On HD

I recently got the HD, but since I live in Canada I figured it wasn't worth it to get a data plan (Can only use EDGE and prices are outrageous). As such, I'm wondering if there are any apps or methods to block data.
I would still want to be able to use wifi for internet and such, but stop EDGE from working. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!

Goto the Comm Manager and turn Data Connection off? Don't know what that does to wifi which has a seperate on/off? That failing, could you not disable data from your operator?

what works for me is to set networks for automatic internet access to "company network":
Start - settings - connections tab - connections icon - extended tab - select networks - automatic internet access => set to company network
I have a german device so had to guess english names ... be warned.
if you make the change and try to update weather data you should get an error.
Set it back to your phone provider should make it connect (and charge you) again.

I called my carrier and asked for data transfer to be blocked.

Start - Settings - Connections
Tap the Connections icon
There you might see an entry for your mobile provider - in my case I see
"Vodafone Live"
- Add a new modem
- Edit my proxy server
- Manage existing connections
Tap 'Manage existing connections'
You will see a list of modems (in my case I see 'Vodafone Live')
Tab and hold the modem
Choose delete

Anyone tried MoDaCo's NoData utility?

dwnload tweaks 3.3. There is an option to disable one or al of your data connections.
You need to install compact framework 3.5 first (google it if unsure).

Hidden GPRS connection

Hi,
I have a hidden connection (Name : MMS) in my connection manager(Made automatically) which I see it is for MMS. Is it possible to make it visible?
The problem is that when I am trying to make connection from laptop it is using automatically this connection (by *99#).
Thx

to view the settings of the hidden one (its not really hidden, you can only see one modem connection at once)
Mine are 'mobile web' and 'o2 active', with o2 active being the hidden mms one, replace mine with whatever yours are called.
settings menu all settings connections connections advanced select networks
change the dropdown from 'mobile web' to 'o2 active', and you will find when you jump back to the tasks tab it is now showing the hidden one, and you can access its settings by tapping 'manage existing connections'.
Of course, now the original one is hidden and your programs will try to use the mms one, and probably fail.
