I have been trying , unsucessfully, to configure my Siemens SX56 to connect to the internet and send e-mail after I upgraded to the Special Rom. It connects but doesn't load the pages and it tells me it cannot connect with current settings. I do not want to wipe clean my device and start over w/o the Special Rom because it has so many cool apps and after my contract expires I am on my way to T-Mobile, so unlocking is key! I have looked at this forum and there is no settings for ATTWS in US. Only Rogers (Canada) Can someone please help this newbie!
Thanks in advance for answering
AT&T WAP Settings
I figured it out since no one seemed to know. If anyone needs any settings for AT&T (US) here they are:
HTTP: localhost Port: 9090
WAP: 10.250.250.250 Port: 9201
Socks: 127.0.0.1 Port: 1080
Type is Socks 4
I created a new connnection called "MY connection Two" since the regular "GPRS connection" tab did not have a tab for proxy settings.

Sorry, I was away for a bit and would have answered if I had seen your request. The other parts I would add to your listed config are that the Access Point Name (APN) is:
Proxy
If you select Cellular Line (GPRS) as the transport, the dialing info will be filled in correctly by itself, resulting in something like "~0GPRS!Proxy" (not sure if that's exact, my XDA isn't right here. If for some reason you need to manually set a GPRS dial sting for ATTWS I believe it is:
*99*#
As opposed to to T-Mobile which is *99***2#
Thanks for answering Mad Max!!
Now if I can only get my Internet Explorer to work I would be all set!!!
Hi,
I'm an att sx56 user, flashed to t-mobile's 40016 for 2003. Everything works real nice but I can't seem to get the att gprs settings correct. Here's what I have,
For Modem Settings:
----------------------
Name: Myatt
Cellular Line(GPRS)
APN: *99*# ( i've also tried +0 ~GPRS!proxy)
username/password/domain all blank
TCP/IP: Use server specified IP address
Server: Use server assigned address
VPN Empty:
Proxy Settings:
-----------------
Localhost 9090
10.250.250.250 9201
127.0.0.1 1080
Socks4
Do you know if I'm missing anything or what I've got set wrong here?
Thanks!

The APN should just be "proxy" alone. All the other junk (+0~GPRS!) is stuff the system fills in when it displays the dialing status, but shouldn't be included in your entry in the APN field. You shouldn't need to enter the *99*# string anywhere either unless you need to establish your own dialing config for some reason.
Also, the fact that you're entering proxy configs in WM2003 implies that you're setting up you connection under the "work settings" section as opposed to the "internet settings", which is fine, just wanted to make sure that's what you intended. Under 2003, unless you need to set proxy settings for your specific needs, then setting the APN name to "proxy" and selecting "Cellular Line (GPRS)" as the modem is pretty much all you need to do.
I have done what you both have said and still NO LUCK! AHH ok here is all of my specs:
Siemens SX56:
Windows Pocket PC Version 3.0.12039
ROM Version 3.17.03 ENG
ROM DATE 5/15/03
Radio Version A.20.10
Protocol Version 324e4
Confirming you're using the XDA-Dev SP ROM 1.2 if so leave try leaving your "proxy" settings blank and see if that helps.
HTH
no tilde stuff
I have been trying to do this stuff for a while now....
I am having the "page cannot be found" problem.
ppcpe 2003
ROM version : 4.00.05 ENG
Radio version: A.20.10
protocol version: 324e4
I set up a new connection called My GPRS.
I have all the right proxy settings (I've been reading forums on this for weeks now) I put "proxy" in as my APN name. On the modem tab, i have
Name: My Connection 1
Number: proxy
I don't see the ~GPRSyadayada....just proxy.
I have the Network Settings using My GPRS connection.
Here's the cooky part...I have a Yahoo chat software package that works great! I can send and receive like it's going out of style. But I cannot get Either internet explorer OR ftxPBrowser to connect to any pages.
What's up here?
Hi
I am having problems with my internet connection on an O2 XDAii (UK). My GPRS (Mobile Web) connection seems to connect and when I use vxUtil ping I can reach net destinations however MSN, IE and netfront doesn't work.
MSN says "Proxy Error - Cannont locate the proxy server. To change proxy servers, tap settings" when I try and login. IE just says can't find the page, and netfront sometimes works but mainly doesn't. Activesync over the net fails as well.
This started happening after a restore using sprite back up. I've checked my connection settings against http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=290164
and it seems correct. I am faced with reinstalling everything now.
Have you made any ROM updates prior to restore?
her are the settings for o2 gprs
access point name = mobile.o2.co.uk
user name = o2web
password = password
use specific server address DNS 193.113.200.200
ALT DNS 193.113.200.201
Hi thanks for your responses.
I haven't put any ROM updates on it and have got the same settings in my connection.
still no joy
User name to CAP letter O so it reads user name = O2web
Thats the only difference I have if this doesn't work Hardreset and try it again as something must be screwed up - Mike
Hello,
I have HTC Touch, and I'm trying to connect to wifi with ISA proxy.
First, I connected to home wifi (no proxy) and accessed internet without problem.
At work we have Radius etc. but I also connected, and I can surf to pages inside company (no need for proxy), but I can't get out to internet.
Any suggestion would be great!
tnx
small update: looks like I was surfing at work through usb cable, not wifi. But now I can't even connect to wifi at work, which I could before. Funny things going on, I'll reset.
Update2:
Newest status is: wifi connected, can surf internal sites, but can't go outside company network.
I suspect that IE is not going through the proxy at all. Which implicates that I don't know how to setup IE to use proxy on WM6???
If you edit "My Work Settings" thru Settings -> Connections -> Connections you can edit the proxy settings there. Then you say "connect to internet" thru "My Work Settings". I may be wrong, but I think you need to reset the pda as well...
OK, here are my settings:
under settings-connections-connections, advanced - select networks:
"Programs that automatically connect to Internet should connect using:" My Work Network.
When I click Edit, under Modem, there are no entries.
Under Proxy settings, "This network connects to internet" and "this network uses a proxy.." are both checked.
"Proxy server" field is disabled.
Under Advanced:
Socks line has serverort next to it. Others are empty. Server and port are good.
I click ok on all and go to IE. Type www.google.com, it says "Locating.." and that's all. Internal web sites are opening ok.
I tried to turn it off, and back on.
Tried google, not working.
I checked all settings once again and tried then, still nothing.
This is a common problem and I have not found a solution for it myself yet.
The proxy settings are lost when you apply them, and the SOCKS server settings behaves weirdly.
Anyone knows what can be done?
i want to know how to do this too... my school is also using the same system.
still no update
no update ??
configfree from Toshiba
Dear,
I had an old E800 from toshiba where configfree is installed. With this program I can configure proxy for wifi in 10 sec and it works.
does someone know where we can find this program for other PDA. I want to try it on my Cruise.
Vincent
I'm also having the same issue. Can anyone help, please?
From my experiences I can tell you: THERE IS NO WAY TO MAKE HTC AND HTTP PROXY FOR WIFI RUN. Neither with WM6.0 nor 6.1 nor a special brand nor the original firmware.
I have tried to inform HTC support, but I'm extremely pessemistic, that at least one will care. It seems to be not a WM related problem, because my WM6 ASUS doesn't have that issue.
There is a work around for browsers only: Don't use Pocket IE, use Minimo, because this browswer has it's own proxy setup. But it doesn't help you much, if you want to use other applications.
EDIT: Just to inform you, what happens, if you upgrade to WM6.1: The proxy settings are kept (HURRRAY) ---- but ignored completely It's _that_ brain damaged...
Regards

I can confirm the same "symptoms": proxy is totally being ignored on WM6.1. However, they're kept when you close the settings.

Proxy over WiFi works for me and has done with my previous HTC Wizard and now with my Kaiser. I have checked with a sniffer that I am definitely using the proxy over port 8080 (MS ISA 2006).
I have explained this before but this is how my device is setup.
ActiveSync/Windows Mobile Device Centre - Connection Settings set to 'This computer is connected to: Work Network' - Setting this to Automatic or The Internet deletes any Proxy Settings on the device when you connect it.
WiFi. My home WiFi SSID Network set to 'Connects to: Work'
Connections. 'Tasks' tab - Two settings 'My ISP' & 'My Work Network'. Advanced Tab, Select Networks. Top settings 'Programs that automatically connect to the Internet should connect using: My ISP'. Bottom settings 'Programs that automatically connect to a private network should connect using: My Work Network'. Under 'My ISP' I have the GPRS details for my carrier (Vodafone). Under 'My Work Network' I have a proxy defined with the Advanced settings configured - HTTP set to my proxy with the port 8080 and Socks set to my proxy with port 1080.
That's it and has worked for me since Windows Mobile 6.0 appeared for the Wizard. I used the same settings when I first got my Kaiser with WM 6.0 and now with WM 6.1 (more or less stock 5.2.19212) and it has worked every time.

WiFi and Proxy
There are too many wifi connection in the present. But the best thing is to choose the right one. Can you tell me to choose the right one with no Proxy service. Thanks
Hello,
Im using a htc hd2 with WM6.5
Does anyone know of a mobile browser in which I can change SOCKS proxy settings - just like mozilla firefox? (ive tried minimo and fennec a3, but no good, unless I could use some addon in fennec).
I want to tell my browser to listen on port 1080 for a SOCKS connection (im port forwarding with pocketputty).
Alternatively, does a program like 'tsocks' exist for windows mobile, in which I can socksify for my mobile browser? I havent used tsocks before btw.
Or finally, is there a way to edit the registry in WM6.5 so that the browser does listen on port 1080 for SOCKS?
Thankyou,
Will
I believe you have to modify the connection entry - I'm guessing you're using wifi, right?
When you create the connection entry, you can associate the connection with a proxy to work properly. Gonna grab my phone and update how-to in a minute....
start-settings-connections-Connections
For me on ATT, I have 2 options - media net and "work" - under "work" there is a setting for proxy server. Go through those options and set appropriately.
Then, when you're done with this, go back and modify your connection (wireless I'm guessing) to associate that connection with the "work" profile and not the "internet" profile.
I had to do this with my work - which uses just a basic forwarding proxy.
hey mate
im not using wifi, im using telstra's next g network. I can get mobile broadband pretty much anywhere in all major cities.
Ill just explain a bit more as to what im doing so you can understand. Im dynamically forwarding port 1080 from a remote SSH server back to my phone, then i want to tell my browser to 'listen' or 'accept' this connection on port 1080. Then im essentially browsing the internet through my SSH server, using it as a proxy. I have this working on my windows xp desktop machine.
So you think i need to modify the phones connections settings to get my browser accepting a socks v4 connection on port 1080?
Ive tried this before with no success. Under 'network management'
the default way my device connects to the internet is 'telstra internet', and the default way for a program to connect to a private network is 'my work network'.
default settings for 'telstra internet':
modem: Cellular line (GPRS)
access point name: Telstra.wap
Proxy settings for 'telstra internet'
2 boxes ticked, 'this network connects to the internet' and ' this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet'
Advanced Settings for proxy
Type Server
http: 10.1.1.181:80
WAP:
Secure WAP:
SOCKS: 10.1.1.181:1080
Ive also experimented around with a 'socksify' program known as proxycap.
2 possible solutions:
1. I configure the browser to listen for a socks connection on port 1080 (this works on firefox for windows xp)
or
2. Use proxycap to 'socksify' a mobile browser

Hi guys,
though someone here on XDA could help me out with a WM6.5 issue i'm having.
At my work we are using some Motorola MC65 rugged handhelds for our couriers. We are currently using WM6 devices fine. I can't get them to connect to the private APN our company uses. The error I get is "Cannot connect for unknown reason"
I had this error once before with WM6 but i fixed that by turning off CHAP authentication and setting up our Radius accounts to use PAP instead. However I can't find anyway to change the authentication settings for the APN.
I have googled it extensively and some people say to do the following:
Windows Mobile 6.5 Start > Settings> Connections> GPRS > New.
Description *Company*
Connect To: The Internet
Access Point: *APN name*
Username: *username*
Password: *password*
Authentication: CHAP
Primary DNS: 0.0.0.0
Secondary DNS: 0.0.0.0
IP Address 0.0.0.0
I dont have a CHAP option on mine :S
The version of WM6.5 is 6.5 Professional CE OS 5.2.23121 (Build 23121.5.3.6)
Are there differences in WM6.5 versions?
I'm fairly confident I can get this APN working if I can turn off CHAP, so any help on doing that would be appriciated.
Regards, Daniel
After reading the sticky again, I think this is in the wrong area.
I can't figure out how to move it, so can if one of the Mods can it would be much appreciated

Hi Daniel
i had to do the same the same, what i did is:
Go to: Settings/Conections/Conections
1. My ISP / Add a new modem connection
2. Enter the name for the conection
3. Select Celulat Line (GPRS) be aware that there is other option "Leular line" but you need the option (GPRS) if this not appears is becasuse you have to put the SIM Card and restart the device
4. Next
5. put the APN Name
6.Next
7. i didnĀ“t put any data in the user name or passwors or domain just clic finish
8.clic the new conection created and selec conect and thats it
Ans for your other question the answer is YES depending the Build of you WM6.5 there are differences and some time is complicated get stable applications for that reasson.
regards
