Please please help, I own a XDA II with a Spectec WLAN 11b/g SDIO Card. When I go into Settings, and Configure Wireless Networks, it shows my network as Available and Connected. However I'm unable to connect to the internet with my PDA via my network. Its trying to connect via o2. I would like to use Skype on my PDA using my home network. Have i got the settings right???
in settings connections--....
you choose if programs use gprs as in my isp or homenetwork
OK I don't know if this is possible but with my Hermes(WM6) connected to my PC via USB using activesync 4.5. Can I get it to connect to the internet via the PC's internet connection (cable LAN to router).
I don't have wireless LAN ((
Thanks
Mike
if the pda is connected and my network is choosen as connection in
system settings network.....
in the pda
then it have access to thee same network as the pc it sync with
same thing with bluetooth sync
If I go into manage networks it only shows T-mobile and if I try set a new network they are all dial up types. when I try to connect to the internet I just get an error message saying connection was lost
i go into settings->connections-connections->advanced->sellect network
i get 2 dropdownbox's with my isp and my work network
if i pick my work network i only have network access over activesync
ok I tried that and all i still get is the connection lost error????????
I have also tried it on a wireless network, it connects fine and then the the same error
I don't know if this is a bug or if it is supposed to be this way, but if I tell the wifi connection to connect to internet I can't access my network shares I have on my computers on the network, but if I choose connect to work then it will work, but the problem is that if I choose work some applications that uses the internet will not work, Marketplace for example. How do I configure Wifi so it can access my home network and at the same time all internet applications will work?
I don't know for sure if this will help but you could try the following:
Start -> Settings -> Menu: All Settings -> Connections -> Connections - Advanced -> Select Networks.
Set your data connection from your provider in both options ("Programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using" and "... to a private network should connect using"). Tap OK.
The network you selected should have "This network connects to the internet" checked in it's proxy settings. That way you're telling the phone that you don't have a dedicated work connection . Make sure your WFi connects to the internet as well.
This is how my phone is setup, and everything seems to be working (shares and internet access on LAN via WiFi) just fine. I specified also that "my computer connects to - the internet" in Mobile Device Center -> connection settings...
Maybe this will work? I'm really not sure, just a guess. There is some logic in it, but the Data connection settings shouldn't affect WiFi...

Hi,
I've searched the forum but always found the wrong direction - how to use the mobile internet connection with a laptop. Answer of choice: "Use the WLAN-Router software on the HD2". That might work for others, but I need the opposite way.
I've got a Lenovo T500 with most recent WLAN drivers and the HD2 (OS 5.2.21869, Manila 2.5.19211619.0, ROM 1.66.407.1 (76641) GER) and I want to use the internet connection of my notebook (at work ;-)) with the phone.
So I thought I'd set up an adhoc wifi connection between those two.
But it doesn't work. Both devices see each other but none of them can connect. For the notebook I can set a static IP 192.168.1.xxx for the WLAN card, but how do I set this on the HD2. I've tried setting static IPs for all the network adapters listed under Settings -> Menu -> More -> Connections -> WLAN -> Advanced -> General -> network adapters -> network adapters ... (on my german OS: Einstellungen -> Menü -> Mehr -> Verbindungen -> WAN -> Erweitert -> Netzwerkkarten -> Netzwerkkarten ...). But on the "Advanced" tab next to "General" I get "Status: Connected to network, MAX: ........, IP 0.0.0.0". When I tap the WiFi symbol in the top status bar, it says: "Wi-Fi: not connected ...".
I'm lost! Can anybody help please?
Hmmmm I would assume that the HD2 Wi Fi App emits an Ad-Hoc Wi Fi connection type....which is like a PC TO PC network connection right? Same happened to me, however in this case my PS3 didn't see my HD2 wifi network...so yes, it may not ever work..unless there's a hack someone develops
Thanks for the reply, but that's odd.
I have no problem connectiong to my WLAN router at home (infrastructure mode). DHCP works perfect on that.
But at work my only way would to ad-hoc connect to my notebook and use its LAN connection from there on.
It seems a bit dumb to offer an ad-hoc mode and then not support it properly - so I still hope for some more feedback.
So is the Connection to your laptop a wired connection?
If so you can either connect your phone to your laptop via a cable and WMDC, or if you want wireless you can right click on your wired connection and go to the properties, you should be able to share the connection with your wireless card. the PC will handle the DHCP and IP Allocation. but you need to create a Ad-hoc network for your wireless card.
all you need to do is turn the router on on the hd and connect to it e with windows, you need to set windows to be able to see adhoc networks though, should be in the advanced wifi settings.

No he's wanting to use the Laptops LAN connection if I'm reading it right instead of the phones data connection, ie Internet>Laptop>Phone if you turn on the wifi Router the internet connection will be coming from the phone not to the phone
On the PC right-click on your LAN connection, choose share, select the WLAN connection as the interface you want to share on. Create an ad-hoc network on the PC, then connect to it with the HD2.
Or use ActiveSync/WMDC via cable or bluetooth.

Aaaah Gotya, if that's the case, try Connectify on the laptop to create a WiFi hotspot, and let it deal with the DHCP'd client for you. Works fine for me.
Thanks for all the suggestions so far!
I'll try them out and report back if any of it worked for me.
Sorry for digging out this thread but I have the same problem (I can connect to ad-hoc with my notebook but I don't have internet on HD2) and any solutions in web didn't help me. Sorry for bad english Please - any suggestions?
I was having problems with ad-hoc connection as well. The only thing that fixed it was to delete the settings for my other networks and then the ad-hoc started working. I don't know if this will help everyone, but it worked for me.

I can't delete settings of my other networks because I set static IP in connection with internet. Maybe I must try share internet via bluetooth. Where I can fin guide about it? (I've already tried to search on forum)
I can acces to internet via router connection, but not by ad-hoc. Someone had this kind of problem and solved it with some program or smth else?
check it out !
chech it out it might help u, but select "work" instead of "internet" and don't open network adapters...
exc.
oops... I can't paste link(because i'm new user), but search with google in the forum "how to access internet with laptop (vista) through wireless" and open the first link. I explained every thing there to set up adhoc connection with hd2...

First check the password of wifi teth..
Any also check that your laptops firewall or antivitus settings.....
.
?
.
check wifi config
go to settings>wireless and network settings > tethering and portable hotspot> then enable wifi hotspot
and in portable wifi hotspot settings press configure portable wifi hotspot then change password to what ever you want the put the same pass in your laptop and it should work
if it doesn't just go to settings>wireless and network settings > tethering and portable hotspot>then enable USB tethering and connect your phone to laptop via usb and it should work
if it doesn't just ask someone else
