At work we have a WLAN with access to the internet through a proxy. Before turning on the WLAN, the proxy is configured correctly. After turning on the WLAN, the proxy is missing and I can not access the internet. I can access the local company sites with no problem. I have the same problem at home with my Wi-Fi system. I have worked with the HTC TyTN and the iMate Jamin with the same configurations and they can access the internet with no problems. Does any one have any ideas?

I have a trouble connecting to a terminalserver when I am connected to Wlan. When using GPRS or GSM I can connect to my office server with no problem.
When using Wlan at home the server always times out. When I am on my work lan I get the question about adding a VPN or proxy. Since we do not use VPN or proxy I do not realy do not now what to do.
Are you not able to connetct to terminalserver via Wlan?
Best regard to all.
I got me a new 2i, and now want to use the wifi function from home as well as hotpspts etc.
I got me a Linksys Wireless-G 54mbps Broadband Router (Back compatibale with 11 b)
Any usefull tips on which software I can use to connect to my home pc and browse to my documents/mp3's/ etc and stream to the 2i?
Also with this I would like to be able to set up a VPN from the 2i so i can remotley connect to my desktop pc when away from home, and do this from a hotspot etc.
Any advise?
Thanks
Just use pocket IE or file explorer and type in the UNC path of the location on your home PC, e.g. \\HOMEPC\MYMUSIC.
Could you let me know which version you are using for the XDA IIi and which model WAP? I've been trying to get my IIi to work with a 3COM OfficeConnect WAP to no avail (both work and home). Work WAP is carrying about 5 different client WIFI cards (and a HP IPAQ). Home WAP is carrying 3 different WIFI cards. No problems in either case. Just my XDA IIi is unhappy. Home WAP is running the lastest firmware from 3COM and Work WAP is running original firmware. My XDA IIi doesn't work with either. I have managed to get the XDA to WIFI on a neighbour's WAP working. Which seems to indicate that XDA IIi is OK.
I've seen another post where there was a problem with a linksys 54g / XDA IIi

Anybody got any ideas?
UPDATE: Got IP address @ work wap from MS DHCP server. Can ping/traceroute using vxUtils, but the device doesn't appear to "know" it's connected. IE, etc still tries to use GPRS.

I managed to establish a connection and got access to the internet via a VPN-Server in the local network connected via Wifi to my XDA mini. I had also problems with vpn connection going down.
Unfortunately I have some troubles with my Wifi card, so I don't have the exact settings. But AFAIR the problem was solved by doing this:
- Going to Settings->Connections->Connections->Advanced->Execptions
- Using New URL to add "*" and "*/*".
(I have a german version, so I'm not sure, how the buttons are labled in english)
I think the problem is, that the software thinks, VPN connects always to the INTRAnet at your workplace. By adding this "Exections" you tell the device, that the hole internet is included in the intranet.
Maybe there is a routing tool for PPC which can solve this, too?
Hello there,
just recieved my XDA mini S from O2 Germany and I'm quite happy with it. I was able to manage a connection to my mixed mode WEP secured acces point however I'm not able to surf with IE when connected to Wifi.
Can someone point me to a solution?
The Device says it is connected and also has a IP from my DHCP server
sincerely,
maui
Hello there,
I just found the error, there was a proxy setting in place which has to be used when connecting over GRPS with o2 Germany.
However this showed me another problem. Because I have a o2 WAP flatrate i use to surf over GPRS when no WiFi is available. Does someone know how i can configure that the proxy is only used when connecting over GPRS?
greetings,
maui
One thing I noticed on the QTek 9100 unit was that the wireless network card was set to use the "My Work" option whenever I had to reset the connections
Setting the Network card to use "The Internet" connection restored the Internet connectivity.
ok heres the deal... i have a MDA flashed with the software from att for the 8125 everything works great except when i turn wifi on, i can connect to the network but cant ever get a page to work. does anyone have any suggestions????? please help
Is this happening on any network or your home network?
Check this... go to Settings - Connections - Network Cards. Make sure the WLAN Adapter is set to connect to the internet. Then tap the WLAN Adapter and make sure IP Address is set to Server Assigned then in Name Servers you don't have anything. If any of these is different, change it to the above.
Yeah. I have the same problem. I have wifi pci asus, the signal is good. I have Lan tru router and now bridged connection. I set the ip, mask and gateway which are in the status of the brudge. And the internet explorer and opera wont load pages.?!??! dns isnt set.
The network adapter is sdio wlan.., and the connection is my work network in connection > connections > advanced >select networks.
i use wm6, nbd 8.0
What could be the problem???
it is home network and all other wifi locations
i know there is a problem with secured networks, especially with wpa encryption. try to remove the encryption and see how it goes....
I have removed all encription. I tried preety much everithing and it doesnt work. All other free wifi networks work just fine, i can surf on internet.
what router do you have? i know that i could not connect to a 3com router with the wizard with any rom i tried.
try using a defined ip address and dns, meaning no dhcp. use a real dns addresses and not the default gateway...
Hi all!
I'm having a very strange issue with my Internet connection on the niki.
I have configured the default Internet connection (the one without VPN and Proxy config) to use the ISP parameters to connect to GPRS.
It connects but it's not working (I tried to navigate with IE but got error opening page).
So I created a new connection (in this case I could set up a proxy, but I left empty), with the same ISP config, selected it as the network to be use automatically to connect to internet, and it works very well.
Any idea about this strange behaviour?
Thanks!!!!
Alex
Solved!
I needed to configure a Work connecion (not used) with a Proxy (HTTP and SOCKS). In this way the Internet connection works fine.
Strange solution for a strange behaviour
I have done the same thing, but nothing solved :-( I am able to use IE and Opera via wifi but not via GPRS
