I have a K-Jam which linked perfectly to my home wifi system the first time I used it. I then synced to my PC using Activesync 4.1 (later 4.2) and the wifi link ceased. Exactly the same ting has happened with my XDA Executive and indeed a DEll Axim. There appears to be a conflict between Wifi and Activesync. Can anyone help me please?

Hello,
Ever since I updated my T-Mobile XDA to the 2003 Rom, my active sync will not recognize the device while hooked up to my PC via USB. I saw someone posted a similar problem, but solved it by disabling their computers firewall. I have tried this and still no luck.
Can anyone offer any further assistance for me?
Thanks
Same problem here, but with kitchen 4.00.11 ROM (without T-Mobile customisation). Have no problem at work, cannot get it to work at home.....

Did you try upgrading activesync to 3.7 or doing a complete re-install of activesync?
Be sure to run the latest version of Activesync. (right now:3.7)
I had the exact same problem before I did...

stink and cpu time
is it just me or does active stink really eat up cpu cycles?
both my core and surface go through the roof when its sync'd but fine when its just connected..... when you stop syncronization or pull out the xda... the temps go back down to 33*c and 34*c respectively.... takes up 80+ % of time....
am I the only one with problems like that or have Microsoft just proved they dont have a clue about technology?
running v3.7
sync problems
I have the same issues on mine - can't sync via usb - tried three computers no workie - but ipaq syncs ok
reinstall active sync doesn't work
I can sync via IR w/no problems though
Please note MS stipulate that ActiveSync 3.7 is required for PPC2003 Xda II.
Serial and Infrared work fine with 3.6, but not USB.

Which ROM version are you running 4.00.10 or 4.00.16?
4.00.16
Just Reset Your PDA then connect your usb again
(Work with my xda 4.00.05 & ActiveSync 3.7.1)
Since I have had the Qtek S100 I experience a strange delay when I hook up to my PC with Activesync. It seems that it hangs for around 40 seconds after connection before it recovers and will look for changes. Same whether I use USB or Bluetooth.
I tried deleting the partenership and starting again and this worked once, but I had to hard reset to tidy up and now it is doing it again no matter how often I re-establish the partenership.
Any thoughts ???
sync with dell laptop running W2000P and AS 3.7
upgrade AS from 3.7 to 3.7.1 might help!
I'm using 3.7.1 and have the same problem.

Hi,just turn off your firewall before connecting,I had same problem with Sony P910i called service center and that was the solution.With the S100 had same problem,remembered the issue with sony so I turn off firewall and now works every time.Regards

Thank's all for your suggestions but so far no luck. I discovered in www.cewindows.net help files that this is a problem commonly associated with the use of Symantec Antivirus Corporate Ed. Ver 8.0. Sometime when I start my laptop I get a message saying Activesync could not initialise....also related.
Unfortunately the company I work for has it installed on all our PCs and they are not planning to update to 8.1 where the problem is fixed.
If anyone has any other suggestions in light of this new info, please let me know.
ActiveSync 3.8
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...21-8a85-45a2-8d13-653beb6cdddc&DisplayLang=en
For clarity...I have loaded AS 3.8 and it does notsolve the problem.
You could be having conflicts with the personal firewall installed (XP SP2 or from your antivirus product). See if allowing ActiveSync to pass through helps.
Just checked myself ... Windows Firewall exception for ActiveSync should be on.
Hi, I had no problem at first with my own O2 mini s, but was unable to conect my wifes to the laptop (Dell inspiron 6000) so we were about to take it back as it would NOT connect at all (just the normal connect bleep then nothing). Just in case it was a problem with the rom install I rebooted it. Still no connection. Having read about the "basic" option on this board I also rebooted my device. mmmmmmmmmmm...... now that wont connect either!!! I have tried rebooting both devices and used the "personnel" options, still no joy??? If I open active sync on the laptop and try the "connect to device" option, i get a "no device found" message. Windows!............what a pile of crap! Anyone else had this problem or have any suggestions. regards, Pete
just found this!
http://www.modaco.com/ActiveSync_4_issuesl_Microsoft_want_to_help_-t230325.html
its an upgarde, problem sorted.
The aboce link fixes the problem with a download of Active sync 4.1
seems there are issues with some firewalls.
Both of our XDA mini s now connect via usb.
regards, pete

Didn't appear to fix mine it just sits there and says retrieving settings endlessly.
My Xda mini S connects to my laptop no probs, but it won't connect to my desktop. I have Sygate PF running and Windows Firewall. Windows firewall looks to have the right settings.
Hmmm.
hi . i have this same problem. i cant connect to my laptop - i only see RETRIEVING SETTING
on my desktop q9100 working well (thx god). any solution? please help
active sync problem
I WAS using sygate firewall as well and having BIG problems with the Wizard sync (get settings for several days). Reading this topic I just shut down Sygate and guess what. Ik works great. Thanks for bringing me the solution!!!
General Failure
ok, but i have not using any firewall. even windows firewall. i connect another wizard into the same laptop and just works fine. but my wizard doesnt work. please help
baja
When I connect the wizard to my laptop via USB cable, it syncs fine but my laptop's wifi connection drops and doesn't reconnect until I remove the wizard and/or reboot. Is this a know bug and is there a fix?
I use Intel Proset wireless for my laptop wifi connection.
It's working as designed.
M$ decided that wifi and sync together were a security risk, so stopped sync'ing over wifi. Therefore wifi will be stopped when connected.
Its strange but even after disconnecting the phone, Wifi has problems connecting back. Needs a reboot to work.
Possible fix
I had this problem too. I have the IPW2200 chipset for wifi (from Intel). The windows default driver assumes the security problem and disconnects as described in the previous reply.
I was able to fix the problem by downloading the Intel ProSet wireless software from the Intel website and installing it. Then I switched from letting windows manage the wifi connection to letting the Intel ProSet software manage the connection. The problem went away!
This all happened on my HP DV1000 series laptop running XP Home Edition.
Good luck, I hope this solves your problem.

Do a search for a program called USBswitch. It is not in the wizard forum.
Install the CAB and then you can change the comm method from RNDIS to Serial.
Activesync now works and the wifi doesn't get dropped.
I installed the latest Intel Proset drivers and the wifi connection still drops on synching. Will try the other methods.
I still can't find a fix for this problem. Its very frustrating have to reboot the laptop after every sync. I can't find this USBswitch prog as well. Need help please. I installed the latest intel drivers from the Dell site. will try the generic intel ones.
Here's a link to a thread with USB switch.
You have to be logged in to see it.

thanks m8! I've also tried synching with bluetooth and this fixes the wifi disconnection + no wires!
hi everyone, i had recenetly hard reseted my Xda Exec by accident, after that i couldn't sync with my activesync 4.1, i had delete my old relateionship plus installed activesync 4.2, but it still not working!!! the phone and pc can detect each other, but they just don't sync, both screen apperaed "syncing" and stay there for an hour. what should i do now??? i don't to type in all the number one by one again!!!
hi
I get the exact same thig here, but ave narrowed the problem down.
If I use Tweaks2k and have GPRS ALWAYS ON set to on, then I can't activesync at all, either cable or bluetooth, it just sits there looking for changes.
If I toggle GRPS ALWAYS ON to off, then it works fine.
Anyone else noticed this, or is it a known issue?
FYI, I have a o2 Exec with latest O2 ROM and am using push email
