Hi guys,
I just received my mda pro qtek9000
And try to get connected by activesync, tried version 3.8 and 4.0/1/beta2
Read the tips on the Microsoft site and changed the virusscan and firewall settings, even also try without firewall or virusscan, NO LUCK
Please advice
What IP address is the MDA getting?
If it is 0.0.0.0 then enable the Windows DHCP client. Activesync will not work without it enabled.

Hi All
It seems since I applied SP2 for Win XP pro, when my i-Mate is in the cradle IE on the XP PC will not connect to any http sites. It will connect to https and ftp. As soon as you remove the i-mate from the cradle you can get to the http sites.
Anyone with any ideas?
Kind regards
Alan
SP2 has a more enhanced firewall application turned on by default. Not sure why having your i-mate connected would cause http traffic to be interrupted, but who knows.
Try going to Control Panel...Windows Security Center and turn off the firewall protection temporarily. If http browsing now works with your i-mate connected you're going to need to look at the firewall settings to see why it is blocking traffic.
If it doesn't work... Don't know I'm afraid. After installing SP2 the new firewall function should have asked you about ActiveSync and whether it should block or unblock network access for this application. Did you get this? The answer should have been UNBLOCK to ensure ActiveSync wasn't prevented from doing it's thing by the new firewall software.
I haven't encountered any problems so far after installing SP2 over the weekend on my laptop - Windows XP Home.
I disabled the firewall before doing anything and don't use it as I have a hardware firewall. It didn't ask about unblocking Activesync but my device wasn't connected.
Did anybody ever try to conect to a MS 2003 VPN-Server via L2TP, authenticated by a certificate? I can't understand why they don't fix that issue? Nobody seemed to have a try except NamCE and me (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=28706).
For me it never worked. I tried the two German T-Mobile Roms and now the i-mate 1.30.76. It's everytime the same: VPN connection bubble pops up for a second and then issues an error "VPN Server Problems". But the damn device never even tries to send a real Packet to the VPN server!!! Of course i checked GPRS or WiFi connection was set up successfully before.
There is only one Exception: If i deactivate the Dialer Skin it works - but only once after soft reset.
L2TP VPN would be great for professional use of the device in enterprise enviromnemt....
Any idea?

Can anyone connect to VPN (PPTP) using WM5 via wireless or GPRS?? When i use my old XDAIIi or II, i can connect by now using WM5 i cannot.
Hope those can connect please share. tks.
I can connect to a Windows 2000 PPTP VPN via wireless -- make sure that in Settings/Network Cards/Network Adapters, your network card is set to connect to the Work network.
Also, in Settings/Connections/Advanced/Select Networks, make sure that the lower droplist (private network) is configured to use the Work network.
Aside from those two items, I can't think of any other gotchas.
Ya still doesn't work......
do you know what the vpn device is that you are trying to connect to?
windows servers tend to be quite reliable. there are known issues with some checkpoint and cisco devices.
Hello,
I am having the same problem! I cant connect via VPN (PPTP) to my Windows Server 2003 RAS setup. It works perfectly fine on my laptop over the internet but when I try to connect using my Cinguar 8125 I get a generic "Invalid username/password' kind of error message. I have tried several differnt things, but I was wondering if there are security settings that are turned off or something like that? I actually have my RAS policy to let any device establish a VPN connection (obviously as long as it is authenticated) so I dont know what to do next... any suggestions??

For me works fine. I have only 2 connections:
a) my isp, with gprs configuration for vodafone
b) my work network, with the vpn connection definition (ip address, user, passw and domain)
I have it set up the same way and I still get the password issue... what kind of policies do you have in RAS?

did you uncheck the security in the connection with the server?
take care with the name user, times exchange get crazy: server/user or only user name for the user field...
Public IP

Hi! I am not an Network expert at all, but here in Norway with one teleoperator we have to use a special access point name on My Work Network connection to get a public IP-address so Network accepts the connection. Perhaps nothing to do with your problem, but also we experience a lot of PDA users having no problem with pre-WM5 devices and much problems with WM5 devices and VPN
Hi,
I am trying unsuccessfully to connect to a PPTP VPN using the VPN client built into my new HTC TyTN II.
Wifi - I can connect using a WinXP SP2 laptop using wifi through my home linksys wireless router (which has PPTP passthrough enabled) using the standard Win XP vpn client. When I try with my TyTN II, I can browse ok but if I set up a VPN connection I get "VPN server problems. Verify your username and password, etc"
GPRS - If I try to connect over GPRS, I connect to Orange GPRS but when it tries to connect to the IP address of my VPN server, I get the same VPN server problem error message. (As a side issue, I asked Orange to enable my account for vpn which they did, sent a SIM update and told me to change my apn to 'internetvpn' instead of 'orangeinternet')
As I can connect through my wifi connected laptop, it seems to point to my WM6 vpn client but my forum searches suggest that the WM6 client works ok. Oh, and yes, I have checked that I am using the correct vpn username and password!
Any thoughts greatly appreciated - the ability to maintain some linux servers was my main reason for getting this phone!

Bump!!! Same problem here. I have all the proper ports open on my router and still no luck.
I've been trying to resolve this with the people that manage my vpn server which is my case is a Watchguard firewall - apparantly Watchguard isn't compatable with PPTP on WM6 and they have suggested using IPSec and have provided me with a client (not that I've got that working yet either!)
I suggest you contact the vendor of your vpn server and ask them whether they are compatable and how a WM6 client should be configured. Post anything you find out here for the benefit of others.
WM6 don't connect to VPN over GPRS/ WiFi
Friends...
I have the same problem... the VPN server is Windows Server 2003... My PDA has WM6 (with in-build VPN client)... then VPN PPTP would work OK... but What is the wrong??
Regards...
I also could not connect on vpn over GPRS and got error message, but after I tested all installed programs I have found out that my SPB GPRS Monitor was the reason for the errors. So I killed it.
Now VPN over GPRS connects and looking into register I see that I am really connected i.e. I got DNS server IP, I got name of the local network and dynamic IP for my HTC, but nothing works. As I have found out from server guys they see me but my dynamic IP is not logged in server DNS, so no program sees me and I can not work.
Can somebody help?
Same
I have a similar problem but the difference is that i don't even receive an error message. When i click connect NOTHING happens!! The wifi i am using is an open network but I must connect to vpn to connect to the internet.
Please help as i really need to get this working...
I have been trying to iron this out with IT at my office as well. I have been trying to get WM6.1 VPN working for nearly a year.
I have a TyTnII and my IT office just bought some kind of WM6.1 Motorola/Sprint Smartphone as well which they actually asked me about setting up for them.
The problem what I am experiencing is that I CAN connect to the VPN server (I use one of the TaskMan progs that has ipconfig built it, and I am getting an appropriate IP from the VPN server). BUT I can't browse ANY intranet sites via PIE or Opera Mobile 9.5. Whenever I try to browse to an intranet site I just get nothing, browser does nothing for ~10min then gives timeout error.
I have heard that this has to do with an inbuilt error in the PPTP module of the VPN client that incorrectly makes VPN server requests using the IP address assigned by the GPRS/EDGE/3G/etc. connection rather than the IP address assigned by the VPN connection, obviously will cause problems!
Anyway, we are investigating 3rd part VPN clients...
Only IPSEC works
I also made many tries to get vpn working over BT PAN profile.
The only configuration which worked for my was IPSEC with the Safenet SoftRemote-LT Client on PC.
With the windows native pptp based vpn does not work .
I got the error code 721 what means that the GRE protocol (frame type 47 on port 1721) does not pass through. This seems to be the the real problem of the packet filtering components of the WM device. The problem is not related to bluetooth or PAN Driver, because it behaves in the same way if you try to do it over USB port. No way.
You guys might want to check out my post about getting my PPTP VPN working and actually syncing ActiveSync on a fixed schedule regularly over VPN.

Getting what you want to work over VPN requires work URL Exceptions so that the traffice is properly routed.

Watchguard does support PPTP, your IT guys just need to configure it. As for IPSec which would be awesome because there is an app call Greenbow that will connect you over 3G doesn't work with Watchguard. You can only connect using their own client for it which needs a license and isn't support on Windows Mobile. They got a hate email from me for that crap.
