I have a few questions I will present here down below. (from sweden and uses telia)
Is there any way to keep track of how many kb I am sending and taking while im conected via GPRS. Or is there any way to make it free?
Cant get IRC to work, because irc can be used on my xda.. right.
I have Wlan at my place, is there no way to connect the xda to my wireless network?
// kahn, tanks in advance.

Use "spb GPRS monitor". Not free, but very good.

Wifi Guide

Does anyone have a wifi guide for a complete dummie? I'm having so much trouble connecting to wifi, and I don't have an unlimited data plan, so I don't want to accidentally use the internet without wifi! Thank you so much.

An explanation of what you would like to do would be helpful.
We would then know which way to advise you.
It's not hard once you know, it's just gathering that knowlege that can be hard at first.

You're right! Thanks for the reply but I've found out how to configure it. My Linksys restricted my Wizard's mac address so it couldn't connect.
Thank you.

WIFI Router messed up internet on pc

I dont know if Im gonna get flamed for this but Im having problems since I installed the wifi router on my tilt. I cant use internet share on my home computer anymore at all. Any help is appreciated.

This is not an issue with your device.
Can you roll back (system restore) on your PC? Is it XP?

thanks but I already tried that, it seems that it set up a different connection that isnt working. The frickin wifi router didnt even work. Absolute biggest mistake I have ever made installing it. Does anyone know how to re set up the connection?

You're in the wrong forum, this has nothing to do w/ upgrading the actual Kaiser. Your problem should be posted in the general forums.

I have moved it...
And not sure how it messed up your pc.. The app is very simple and it only uses an adhoc connection, no need to set up connection sharing on your computer, only a wirless adhoc connection to your phone, the phone uses the sharing.

share internet from pc with htc wizard via wlan

Hi,
i've read several articles about this around here, but nothing seemed to work.
I have a notbook with an external umts-modem (huawei e220) and want to share this internetconnection with my t-mobile mda vario aka htc wizard (original t-mobile rom installed) via wlan. I am using win vista home premium. The connectionsharing via usb/mobile device center/activesync works fine.
So does anybody know, how to share this connection via wlan?
Thanks in advance!

Ok . If you are connected to the phone and the phone's wifi is on you will be able to shar. As when I connect it to any machine and wifi is enabled the machines show the ip of the phone. Now tell me what you see when you connect I have a vista machine here and ill play with this with you mate ...

Hi,
I just want to tell you that I bought an access point (linksys wap54g) and this works great!
Thanks for your efforts anyway.

Internet through USB from PC

Hi All,
I have searched the forums but can't find anything on my specific issue. I used to have an XDA Orbit and if I connected it via USB I could use my PC's internet connection. Is there anyway I can do this with my shiny new G1. The reason I’m asking is I have bugger all reception at work and the Wi-Fi is located in another building, which is too far away.
Please help!

Hi,
My above post has been moved here but im not trying to connect my pc to the internet using my phone, im trying to conect my phone to the internet through my PC.
As far as I can see this post does not apply to my question, can somebody please help? I can't be the only one this applies to!

If the computer has wifi and is connected to the internet through wired network it can be done...
Is this your case?

My work PC doesn't have Wi-Fi. My home PC does though.
All I want is for my G1 to be able to use my computers internet conection via USB. My old XDA Orbit used to be able to do it via active sync.
i.e I can surf the web on my phone using USB connection as the access point
Any ideas?

As far as I know this probably will not work, but you can try reversing the port forward technique with ADB

Why would you want to surf the web through the phone when you have a PC on the other end of that wire which does the same thing, but better?

Several reasons that i can think of
1? Bad reception indoors, so i can waste time at work by downloading useless apps on my G1, and everyone thinks im working.
2? My cell provider charges me for internet bandwith usage (per kb/mb), im cheap and don't wanna pay them.
3? I'm a massochist, and enjoy using the G1's browser more than firefox(bleh!)
4? I'm running out of reasons now
All this hypothetically could be hypothetical.
Yup, im bored at work

Exactly, item 1 sums it up. I have no reception at work so if I have a data connection I can get email notifications and test out my apps. I can't believe no one else is missing this feature. On my xda I had it set up to sync with my various email accounts etc. It wouldn,t be a problem if tmobile's reception wasn't so poor!

I would assume it is possible but would have to forward ports from your computer to the phone, similar to how the thetherbot app forwards ports from the phone to the computer. But I may be wrong that could be a one way street for data.

Wow...you are a masochist As much as I like the browser on the g1 compared to other phones..I just don't see why you'd always want to use it instead of a PC

I don't want to surf the web on the G1 when right infront of me I have a PC. I simply want it to have a reliable data connection when I'm at work. As I have no signal from t bloody mobile and no wifi!
Nobody made a sync application similar to MS ActiveSync?

Why would we make something that is already built in?

ohh forget it. Your obviously not reading what i've written.

No you obviously haven't paid attention.
Why would we create something to sync our phone to our computer when it does it all OTA. On top of this how did you expect it to sync our calendar and such when it is all proprietary?
What exactly do you want "sync'd"?
And once again... I am sure you could figure it out if you read up on adb forward commands.

As my first post says I have no reception at work at all, this means I go all day without being able to sync my various email accounts etc. I would also like to be able to demo what our device can do to my collegues. unfortunately i don't understand adb or indeed know what it stands for and as I have no programming knowledge i thought I would speak with people that do.
I will try to figure it out for myself and post my findings here. I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks it would be useful.

I'm also looking for some solution to use my Laptop's internet connection on my G1 via USB. The reason for this is I have a very weak neighbors wifi and only my Laptop can connect to it. I am writing android apps that need to connect to the internet.

you could set up an adhoc connection on the computer and connect to it on the g1 then bridge the networks

unfortunately my work PC does not have a Wi-Fi card so this wouldn't work. damn it whys it so complicated!?! :-(

You could just buy a router.
