I dont know why but I cant connect to windows live anymore ever since I upgraded my phone (the multiple times i did that is hah). I can't connect through windows live or through messenger. It says it cant connect and to check if I have a data plan (which i do, unlimited) So does anyone have any idea why I cant connect? I looked through my internet settings and it seems to be ok. everything looks good for my at&T network.
i can connect to the net with everything else. it's just live that being a pain in the butt. I cant figure out whats wrong. and ideas?

I had a hard time with this too. turned out to be an issue with the ROM I was using... here's how it should work, if you have any issues I can help you on msn just add me pete(at)peteandsteph(dot)ca
1) browse the phone from the mac, it should discover a "network access point" when it browses the phone. make sure that's ticked, you can remove the other checkmark for use the phone as a modem.
2) click the bluetooth icon at the top right of your screen on the mac, scroll down to your phone, go over to "connect to network".
3) on the phone open internet connection sharing, choose bluetooth PAN as the method, then click connect.
4) surf the net from the mac.
*note, you can connect ICS before or after you connect to the phone from the Mac, it makes no difference.
thanks evader, but thats the opposite of what im looking for...i want to get internet on my phone using the internet from my mac, i do not have the data plan so i would like to make it work by having the bluetooth on my mac supply the internet...
im gunna install bootcamp and cuz im pretty sure i can get it to work the activesync because it will connect them for you...
I dont believe this works with the Touch, I know I got it to work with the Mogul
oh sorry, I used to do that with my treo 650 through missing sync. Might be worth looking into.
Hi guys,
Been looking around all day for a fix for this. I thought it was just a setting issue so have been try all kinds of setups from what vodaphone have on their website to what i have googled and still have the issue.
I can get on to the internet after a reboot but after a while it will lose connection and i will get two arrows one left and one right on top of each other instead of the normal "G" icon. As so as this happens i lose all connection to the internet and cannot get back on unless i reboot the phone a few times then the "G" icon comes back and the internet is back up and running.
Its my only grip so far with this phone everything else is great.
Any ideas
Damo
wierd. that sounds like the activesync icon...You're not connected to your PC via cable/bluetooth are you?
Stupid question I know, but best to get it out of the way.

oh my god i am such a noob, i did not know that when the usb connection is connected the interenetconnection stopped......hang is that right, should it still not connect to the internet?
Thanks

When you plug it into the PC, it will try and use the PC's internet connection.
On the PC, open activesync and go to file, connection settings.
Make sure that the option called This computer connects to is set to the internet.
Also, tick the box marked Allow wireless connections... then it should be able to connect while plugged in.
If you have vista and WMDC, these options should still be around, but as i have avoided vista like the plague, i can't tell you where they are cos i simply don't know.
I've had this problem before but I forgot how to fix it
My internet went out about three hours ago so I'm posting from my phone. I'd really like urgent help as I have a job over the internet and I can't do it as long as my computer doesn't have internet.
When I use WMWifirouter with Windows 7, it seems to connect but it eventually shows the yellow triangle warning sign with the message "no internet access" next to the network name. I used to have this working both as a Wifi receiver and a 3g adapter, but one day it just stopped working. I really, really need help tethering my phone ASAP
If you need any other info just ask
Urgent??
You came to ask if someone would help you install an app designed for Windows Phone 6.5 onto an operating system that has no official apps and is not even released yet, and that you hacked onto your phone.
Would you like sugar with that? One lump or two?
If I find anything useful, I'll post it, lol.
What the hell are you talking about? Windows 7 is out and I see people using it on laptops at school. Also, I'm running the application on my phone and connecting it to my computer via USB. Make sure you know what you're talking about before you reply
I have my internet back, but I'd still like to know how to do this since this most likely will happen again

You're thinking he's running Windows Phone 7...he's referring to Windows 7...on his laptop.
doh
Reading is fundamental, my apolgies
Hi, I have the same problem, i am trying to get internet connection on my windows 7 laptop in work usink ICS and/or trial wmrwifirouter. Both ways, i get connection, either to wi-fi or usb, end also to 3G network on phone, but connection icon displays yellow triangle warning no internet access.
- in my next step i ran it on my virtual windows xp machine - the same thing
- I also noticed that pinging google.com resolved IP address, but requests timed out
I have an HTC 8525 and when i first got it, i was able to connect my phone to my computer through usb and browse the web from my phone using my computer's internet connection. Well, I had a software issue (incompatible app apparently) and had to hard reset my phone, i had to hard reset it when i got it to, so it wasn't anything new. After hard reseting and going through the initial setup again, i installed all of my apps (except the faulty one) made a few changes in "advanced config tools" like i had set before, plugged the phone to the comp through usb, and my phone continually tried connecting to the internet through my cell phone's data plan (i dont have a data plan, so it said the same old "check if your account balance..." or whatever it says) so please SOMEONE help me with this!!! (i do have activesync and i am able to sync my phone with my comp, and it's an htc herm100 running windows mobile 6 pro)
please help!!! and how do i change my phone's USB connection name? it has WM_ before my name now, it didn't when i first got the phone...
EDIT: I've gotten vTap to work but the internet (internet explorer) still won't load a webpage, it comes up "The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost. Check the connection and try again later." and thats when i try to load google...please, i know SOMEONE on these forums can help me...dont be shy people, post somethin, anything that could possibly help, oh and i had to change my connection to "My Work Network" just for vTap to work...
i've found the "share internet" settings on my phone, i forgot that since the reset it wasn't defaultly available, but even when i get to there, i cant connect for internet sharing through usb, it has the option but i cant connect, i've been through toubleshooting options and everything both through my phone and activesync, i've been to microsoft.com and everything, still cant get it working, so can someone please actually try to help me around here? 81 views and the only responses are from me MYSELF making at least SOME bit of progress. If i wanted to just post my problem and get no answers i would've went to yahoo answers, now seriously, someone freakin help me, before i lose all faith in this website!!!
EDIT: i think i found the major problem, activesync, i can connect to my computer through activesync but everytime i try to transfer any files either the transfer will freeze or my phone auto disconnects from activesync, might not be my phone disconnecting, could be the comp and my phone recognizes that i'm not connected anymore, and can someone actually help me a little on this? i've tried completely uninstalling activesync, i've went through every option on my phone that i could think of, i've had over 100 views on this topic and still no replies, seriously?
i'm just using skyfire web browser now, i cant believe no one could help me, oh well...
