I upgraded to the new ROM on my i-mate K-Jam and everything seems fine, except IE won't connect to a WEB server if I use the IP. If I use an URL it connects fine.
If I do a HTTP 'get' to the IP, using a tool such as VXUtils, I can retrieve the page, so it looks like IE is just not responding to IP's in the URL bar. It comes up with some silly error about the connection being lost, which is not true as I can ping the server all the time.
Anyone else seen this? Any idea on how I can get around this?

I have recently acquired a T-Mobile pocket pc phone. It works fine as a phone but I am having problems getting it to work with GPRS with Vodafone here in Australia. I get a "connected" message but I can't even do a simple thing like load the google home page.
I have installed pocketcmd and nettools and ipconfig shows me I have an IP address, ipmask, gateway address and dns servers. I even tried to ping a couple of places like www.google.com and it works.
What could I be missing?
I have ROM version 3.08.10 ENG date 7/11/02,
radio 6.03
protocol 324e4.
FYI I fixed this by modifying the existing "Internet Settings" profile to use the vodafone australia APN vfinternet.au. I don't know why this works while my own profile displays this bizarre behaviour.
I have same problem.
Using XDAII as wireless modem under Bluetooth & GPRS. Folloed guide: http://www.xda-2.co.uk/user_downloads/pdf/Xda_II_Modem_Setup_Guide.pdf. Worked perfectly. (D-Link USB Bluetooth using Widcomm 1.4.2).
BUT NO HTTP! Ping, Telnet, DNS resolution, perfect. Not http.
Looks like might be a DNS recolution on the in-line proxy O2 use, as calling web sites with IP numbers sometimes gets some data.
Obviously, IP with no HTTP is not much good these days, even if it would keep my O2 bill down.
Thanks to any person who can suggest a fix.

I am not able to stay connected to Windows 2003 pptp vpn server.
When i look at the logs on the server, it indicates the pda2k authenticated, ip address assigned, then it immediately disconnects, no errors on the server and no errors on the devie either......this is puzzling.
any ideas?
thanks.
I have exactly the same problem. I can see the connection is established on the PC but it drops after about 3 seconds. Really bugging me now.

found any solution to this problem yet??

believe it effectively relates to the differences in the pocket pc using "internet" and "work" when choosing and establishing a connection type. internet expects "." in its addresses, whereas work doesnt and anticipates the use of Named addresses such as the name of your server, however, I dont find the DNS effective for this.
to allow it to work when the VPN is on a work connection, I think you need to use the exceptions tab, and insert the IP addresses you are using to connect as an exception to the rules, thus allowing 10.0.0.1 as an address if this the address to your server.
There are posts on this forum that are more specific, but this is the gist of it, search WIFI VPN or similar. Same method if using a VPN over GPRS.
I can connect after a softreset...it maybe work 1-10 times in a row...and then it just stops and dont work again...not until I do a softreset again!
I can go up on gprs and such and surf the net just fine...but not onto vpn.
My searches on the web haven't yielded much help or information so I thought I would come to the experts...
I have a Treo 750 that I just "upgraded" to WM6 2 days ago. I noticed that DUN has gone away and was replaced by ICS. After configuring my laptop to use that instead of DUN I connected and was surfing the web. My problem now is VPN. I travel frequently (luckily I'm in the office until Jan.) and regularly used my phone to connect to the corporate network via VPN. I also work with a lot of other companies and have VPN access to their systems as well. Basically now I can open my Cisco VPN client, connect to a VPN gateway, authenticate, get assigned all the appropriate IP information, but cannot communicate on the network. What gives? Is there a solution to this? If not, what the heck was MS thinking when they did this!? My phone is basically useless for one of the major reasons I bought it...
Any help is appreciated!
thanks!
Ok, further searches found that DUN can be added back into WM6 via a cab that was posted here at the XDA forums. I installed it and the DUN service is now visible again. I unpaired by phone and laptop, re-paired, and included DUN. Now when I try to connect, I get the DUN connection box after the bluetooth connection is initiated but when I click DIAL I get the DIALING... prompt, followed by Error 678: The remote computer did not respond.
Anybody get this working on a Treo 750? Thoughts, ideas suggestions?
What is the ip address you are getting via the cisco vpn client
It maybe that it is in the same subnet as the ip address assigned to the pc from the wm6 ics. The ICS gives the address 192.168.0.1. and if your Cisco is also giving a 192.168 address then you will have two routes for the 192 address range thus giving you the problem when accessing hosts.
If this is the problem Im pretty sure you can change the address allocated via the ICS using a registry editor. If not you may be able to get work to use a different range for you on the cisco vpn.
Our corporate network is 172.x.x.x so it's nowhere near the 192.168.0.x assigned by the phone. When I look at the route in the VPN client I see 192.0.0.0, 10.0.0.0, and 172.0.0.0 so I am assuming 192 is my laptop, 10 is the phone, and 172 is the corporate network.
I'm guessing NATing is the problem. I've been reading that if I use a different APN (isp.cingular instead of wap.cingular) there is no NATing. I've tried both, and I've tried turning off and on the "force AT&T" proxy setting to no avail.
Tried the DUN cab hack that is floating around for WM6 also. The service is active again and I can also add Modem Link back in and my laptop sees my Treo as a modem but when I dial I get an error stating the remote computer did not respond. I'm guessing along with going from WM5 to WM6 AT&T also updated the radio so the old communications protocols don't work anymore?
Hello Sir,
I have exactly the same problem... I have successfully connected via VPN, however unable to communicate with any devices on that network... Then what is the use of VPN on the phone? I've tried searching online for answers, but no luck... People are having the same problem but no one knows how to solve it... I'll try and trouble shoot this problem more as soon as my exams are done...
Hi
Working successfully for me. I am using Imate jasjam wm6. Pc using cisco client connecting via ics on phone. I have telstra 3g connection tested ok on both telstra.internet (Nated ip) and telstra.extranet (real ip).
You are correct it may be an nat issue. Can you check that your transparent tunnelling is on as follows: right click on your connection entry in cisco client and select modify then transport tab. Check that enable transport tunneling is enabled ipsec over udp(Nat/pat).
The other thing to check is that the cisco vpn server aslo has transport over Nat on as well.
Also are you sure your corporate ip range is 172 or is that the range given by the cisco vpn to clients.
Transport tunneling is on (always was). I'll have to check with our network admin and check on the VPN server setting...I guess as long as I have connectivity back to the office, I don't need it that badly for all the customers I need to connect to at various times.
Yep, positive on the corporate IP. Right now it is 172.28.1.87 and I'm in the office.
Thanks for the help so far. Got any other suggestions on how I can troubleshoot further?
One other thought...should I modify the registry on the phone to assign a different IP address to my laptop? Would that help?
Same Problem
MX. I am having the exact same issue but with Securemote VPN. I've looked through the registry and found the assigned address, but I'm wary of changing anything until I can find some more information.
Anyone out there ever change the DHCP configuration for their phone?
Somewhat related question?
Im attempting to route my connection on my mobile through a laptop acting as a wan bridge, then uplinking it into the router. The issue Im having is that XP and WM6 both use the same IP Block. Ive read and read and cant find much to tell me how to change the WM6 IP BLock to something like 192.168.2.1 rather than the default 192.168.0.1
Does anyone have any pointers? Ive looked through the registry. There MUST be a simple way to change a default.
To clarify my setup, I am using ICS Via USB into a UMPC laptop running XP. The UMPC is set to share that same connection back out over Ethernet. The ethernet runs into my WAN Uplink on the router and then back out via wifi/rj-45
This setup works as I have done it using Wifi with other networks, and I can chose the "Lan3" to share under the advanced settings on the UMPC. The reason I dont just share out via Wifi from the start is that Wifi on my Kaiser and Raphael both make the device to hot to charge, thusly killing the battery within a couple hrs of sharing. If I share via USB , it stays pretty cool and still charges.
Anyone have any pointers?
I have already tried tricking XP into using the Lan on another block but as soon as you try to share the USB lan, it reverts back to the 192.168.0.1
The only way I can imagine is a registry modification or a program change in ICS.
Thanks Much!
Hello:
I have an XDA with WifI, whcih I can connect fine to my wireless network.
I can ping my server from the XDA, all works fine.
I cannot connect to any network shares on the server. I have tried the built in windows explorer and Total commander also, both have the same issue.
I type in the IP address fo the server and the share in question
e.g. \\192.168.0.1\MyShare - the connection keep timing out
I have also tried the server WINS name as well, (\\server\MyShare) I get the same problem.
I suspect it is an authentication thing - no permission, however, I never get asked for a username / password, so cannot type them in.
Anyone got any ideas about how to fix this?
Thanks
hi,
i have a hd2 and want to run different network services like ftp server oder a vnc server on it.
when i connect to my pda while it is connected to my home network with wlan, everything ist working as expected. eg. i start the ftp server on my pda, and connect to it from my desktop using the ip adress that it has obtained from the dhcp server, also vnc and other services are working fine.
the problems starts when i try to connect to my pda over the cellular data connection gprs/3g. the device establish the connection, i can browse the internet oder use email, everything works as expected. but when i try to access the ip address that the telecom provider has given to my pda, i cant make a connection. i get the ipaddress over tools like vxutil oder pocketdhcp and also try webservices like whatismyip.com, to asure that the ip is correct. but i simply cant connect to the device. its like all ports are closed.
are there any restrictions in the ip stack of the pda for incoming connections or is this a provider firewalling thing? i tried 2 different provider my self an both seems to have this problem.
regards mad
it comes down to which ports your phone company leaves open most don't leave too many open
hi,
thats what i expected too. as far as i can see german t-(in)mobile and eplus seems to block hardcore everything. the main application for me is vnc, i want our customers to be able to connect remotly with the ultra vnc sc tool. so the only way to do this when im at gprs/3g, is to use some kind of repeater software on that is always on and is connected to the internet all the time.
regards mad
where is i canfound related forum like this??
