Skype/Live Messenger via EDGE ? - Wing, P4350 General

I have setup all my programs to work through EDGE by using a proxy but those 2 programs are giving me problems, unless its a WiFi connection they cannot connect
I've tried setting up different connections and using the Skype proxy but it still does not work
has any1 been able to get them to work through EDGE/GPRS ?

as I posted in an earlier post. you cant use messenger, skype, or any IM programs unless you switch to t-mobile's $20 a month data plan. t-zones only gives you internet access on your pocketpc.

T-Mobile MDA US - GPRS Internet Services (T-Zones, etc)

What are you guys using to connect to the internet? I can do everything I want with T-zones unlimited, using the proxy... however, if I use the proxy, I can't connect to wi-fi because it wants to try to connect thru the proxy. What services are you using and what are your settings?
Thanks,
Danny
i will use
I wont get my MDA till monday according to UPS, but when i get it i plan on getting the Total Internet plan for 29.99. it includes GPRS, EDGE and Hot Spots. That is the plan the tmobile is advertizing with this phone.
I have the T-Mobile total internet package. I am not using the proxy server, and it connects to Hotspot just great.
However, I have not tried to access T-Zones. Well, I tried once, and got a network solutions 'page coming soon' thing. I doubt I have it correct. lol
hot spot
how does the hot spot autentication work?
im assuming they made it so i wouldnt be able to just put in my username and password on my laptop and log it into a hotspot.
I have unlimited internet 19$ plan.
I don't use any proxy server.
I don't think you can use the regular t-zone on this phone ($9 plan).
Otherwise all good, just use: internet2.voicestream.com in the gprs setup and the rest emty.
my 5.99 tmobileweb with proxy works very well with any website using internet explorer mobile. it doesn't work, however, with outlook or any other mail client or application that doesn't know how to use proxy. i'm glad that virtual earth 1.5 works well even with my tmobileweb plan.
as for the problem that the original poster described, in the connection settings, i created a connection especially for wifi. and to switch between wifi and tmobileweb, i go to 'select networks' and choose which ever connection i want in the two drop-down lists that i have.
Proxy Setup
msafi,
What are the settings for setting up the proxy? I used the proxy with my Nokia 6600 just fine, but, cannot get it to work on the MDA Wizard.
Thanks, SK

TyTn and Skype

Hi,
I'm having issues getting Skype to connect using the WiFi on my TyTn. The wireless connects to my work network and a proxy server is required for web access. I think I have these setting configured correctly because Internet Explorer connects to external web pages. Whenever I try to connect using Skype it throws up an error message stating it can't connect to the Internet, Skype works fine over the 3G. Has anyone managed to get skype working over WiFi on the TyTn and if so what settings did you use.
I use skype over wifi no problems. Check your skype settings to make sure that wifi use is selected.
I, however, do not have a proxy set up on my wireless network so you may need to tweak skype's settings to get it to run correctly.
Using the new BETA version but old one worked just as good.
Sorry if it's of no help to you.
S.K.
Hie there, I was wondering if you could email me your 3 uk settings especially the phone band settings. I used to be able to connect to skype and msn but ever since I temperd with the settings it refuses to connect. It connects onto the 3g network though but some how not msn or skype. They both also connect using wifi. Help please!!!

I have a 3 pay as you go sims, could you please send me the 3 settings.
I dunno if will work with pay and go, but I'm on 3 contract and the setting the access name to 3internet allows me to connect to Skype. The standard Skype program won't allow you to use skype on p2g unless you have the internet add on as it would allow voip calls.

Why can't I load any web site?

Why can't I load any web site?
I am using 8525.
I upgraded wm6 yesterday. But I can not open any web site on IE altough it is connected to my wireless(unsecured) at home.
It works well when I use 3G service. What's wrong with that?
It is really annoying me!!
Anyway I have pda unlimited data plan. But I wanna know why it doesn't work if I use Wi-fi.
Help me..
Turn off the proxy and ensure that you have allowed IE connections to work on the wireless connection.

Agile Messenger Problem

Hey, I just installed Randomize's wm6.1 rom....everything is working great, i've had no problems other than with Agile Messenger.
Agile messenger refuses to connect when on Edge or 3g, but connects fine when connected to wifi. IM+ seems to work perfect on anything...
before upgrading, agile messenger worked fine...anyone have any suggestions?
Double check your Internet connections. Agile wont connect using media net make sure you have it setup to use a ISP connection.
so whats the difference between medianet (wap.cingular) and isp (isp.cingular)
i have the unlimited data plan, its not gonna charge me some extra for isp or anything is it
edit** i just tried my isp, and connection failed

Anyone get on how to get free internet on tmobile wing

does any one know how to get free internet on a tmobile wing without already have the internet.
Either get a data plan or connect via wifi. Thats it.
i tried the wifi it it wont work for some reason
what rom are you using?
do you need permission from the network to log on?
Check you security?
Depending on how long you have had T-Mobile service it use to be T-Zones, T-Mobile Web and today is web2go. I continue to have T-Mobile Web at $5.99. Okay, the only changes you need to concern yourself with web2go is the APN; it is no longer wap.voicestream.com and configure the proxy. Today it is simply; epc.tmobile.com and you don't have to bother doing anything else except download the Network .CAB or do it manually yourself. Today there are more data plans than you can shake a stick at and the bottom line, they are more expensive today than before and you may have to experiment with what works for you.
The $5.99 plan works fine. It's not 3G, but EDGE is faster now that it is on the updated APN. There is the HotSpot Utility for places like Starbucks and airports and finally there is Wi-Fi. If you're using strictly a "wired" access router you will need to buy a way to make your connection wireless. If like AT&T's 2Wire routers which like mine are wireless check to see if your security is enabled. My 2Wire965 came defaulted enabled but can be disabled. If enabled you're going to need that information and add those settings to your Wing/Herald which will prompt you for those settings once you configure wi-fi via the communication manager.
I hope this helps; take care!
