wm6 vpn pptp timeout issue - Networking

hi
i recently upgraded my treo 750 (treo 750v vodafone) to wm6. i have configured exchange-active-sync over pptp-vpn (everything worked fine on wm5). now i have a ptroblem with my vpn.
when i try to surf a local address (192.168.1.20 everything configured so he opens a vpn-connection) mostly he gets a timeout. when i type the same url again (vpn connection still active) it always works. same problem with exchange-active-sync. first attemt fails but when i sync again with open vpn-connection it works.
after some trying i found out that if i hav an already up data connection my doesnot have this issue. so the problem only occurs when no connection is running and the treo has to open a data connection and then has to open the vpn-connection.
to me it seems like the device tells the program, that wans a internet connection that the connection is up, too early. so the program tries to open a socket but gets a timeout because the tunnel is not up at this moment.
is someone else having this issue?
my data:
device: treo 750v (CE OS 5.2.1239 Build 17746.0.2.4 original vodafone wm6 update)
network: a1 austrian network (gprs, umts hsdpa all have same problem)
firewall: rv042
vpn protocol: pptp
ps.: on wm5 everything worked fine in the same configuration.
for the moment it helps to have my data-connection configured to be always on.

GPRS (E/3G/H) Internet connection strange behaviour

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!!!!

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

Connecting a P3600 to the eduroam network?

Is it possible?
I own a P3600 and i'm also the sysadmin of a eduroam network. Our network is certified (eduroam compliant).
I was able to connect almost any kind of device to the network, except the p3600. Even a nokia running Symbian S60 works just fine!
I can debug the connection on the server side (radius server), i tried 2 different p3600, one of them with the original ROM and with a WM6 ROM. I got the exact same results: the phone connects, it finishes the auth protocol with success (radius server accepts the authentication), and then it just restarts the authentication again, and again....
P3600 Starts Auth -> Radius Server Accepts Auth -> P3600 Starts Auth again
Was someone able to connect to the eduroam network with this phone? It connects fine to the "eduroam-guest" network, an unsecured network.
Other pockets work just fine with the exact same configuration, it must be something specific of P3600.
Thanks for any feedback, i'm getting desperate!
Regards

As sysadmin You could try increasing eap identity-request-timeout like here : http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/windowsmobile/thread/64cd678a-0e63-40e4-9514-79a87067be5b

i780 GPRS connection issues with some applications

I am using Samsung i780 and have issue with some applications.
Most of applications work over GPRS and over WIFI without any issues: Internet Explorer, Opera, ActiveSync and Google Maps. These applications can both: initiate and use existing GPRS connection - I guess they use Connection Manager API.
But some applications do not work over GPRS
Metatrader 4 Mobile, PocketPutty - they can connect over existing WIFI connection, but not over existing GPRS connection, they also do not try to initiate GPRS connection.
PocketPutty is not "connection manager aware" (I know that from forum). About metatrader I could not find any information.
I tried many different settings in connection manager, but they could not solve this issue.
I have also tried to reflash my i780 with "WM6.1 WWE ROM - V3.3XG RELOADED" but this didn't help with my issue.
NOTE: On my i600 metatrader 4 mobile worked over gprs without any issues.
Maybe there is a magic registry setting or something? Maybe there is something I am doing wrong?
I am using Orange PL 3G/HSDPA connection.
Could somebody help me, please?
Accidentaly I have found a workaround which I do not understand.
When I change in connection manager
From:
Internet: My ISP
Work: My Work Network
To:
Internet: My Internet
Work: My Work Network
something strange happens:
GPRS connection is automatically established after powering on the phone (as with prev settings)
But IE is unable to resolve domain names, metatrader is unable to connect (on prev settings IE works)
When I disconnect my connection, and connect again opening page in IE. IE opens this page and metatrader suddenly connects! (meta trader never connects on prev settings)
I have no idea what's happening.
I found workaround which I completely do not understand .
Internet: My ISP
Work: My Work Network
I have added modem connection to My ISP.
This changed, that after power-up internet explorer works.
Next step is: go to connection manager and disconnect data connection (using HTC connection manager - not data call manager).
Then: connect to the internet using internet explorer or active sync
Now run metatrader - it works.
My questions:
Why is does it work while other configuration do not work?
Why do I have to disconnect data connection? - it is connecting first time using exactly the same connection settings!
How can I make this work in a civilized way?
UPDATE: PocketPutty also works after this workaround

Static WLAN IP used for Dial-up connections

Since I flashed the official new o2 Rom (1.57.207.1 (47324) GER) I've had the following Problem.
1. My Dial-up Connection works fine.
2. I configure my HD to use my home WLAN network. As it does not use DHCP I configured a static IP for my Wifi-connection. It connects fine and all applications use WLAN and work as they should.
3. Now I disconnect WLAN through connection center or another methode.
4. If I try to use my Dial-up connection now, it seems to connect fine to the network, but I cannot access any webpage through a browser or check my emails through outlook or anything. Opera just presents me an Error page.
5. If I disconnect my dial-up connection, delete the static IP settings from my WLAN-Adapter, set it to use DHCP for Wifi and reconnect dial-up everything works fine again.
I checked my dial-up settings, everything is set to automatic ip from server, but it still seems to be influenced by the Wifi settings.
If anyone has any solution to this problem, your help would be greatly appreciated, as it is pretty annoying to have to set the ip-settings everytime i want to use Wifi.
I tried a hard reset today, that didn't help either.
My phone has the following configuration:
ROM:1.57.207.1 (47324) GER
Radio: 1.12.25.16d3
Protokoll: 52.60.25.33h
Thank you very much.
