Hello,
I'm using the PAN to connect my personnal computer at my HTC kaiser.
The network is 192.168.0.0/24 between my two devices but I would like to use an other network because 192.168.0.0/24 is already used...
How tell to the kaiser to use an other network ?!
Thanks.
not sure how you connect to your network but
unless you connect directly to the router then
it would not matter as you would be routing passed
the pc with the bluetooth dongle you connect to
and passed that your ip would be that if the of
that pc
I'm using openvpn to bypass my operator proxy and my vpn network is the same as the PAN one.

i got usb wlan adapter. it's ip is 192.168.1.130.
the lan adapter in my pc has 192.168.1.84 ip.
all computers on my local wired network has 192.168.1.* addresses and 255.255.255.0 subnet.
i fixed the IP of SD sandisk wifi adapter on my mda compact to 192.168.1.131.
Usb adapter is in peer-to-peer (ad-hoc) mode and i normaly connect with ppc to it. i got 80-100% signal all the time.
the problem/question #1: why i cant ping from ppc to PC ? firewall turned off.
#2 - if i could ping it, would i be able to ping all the other ip's on my wired network?
#3 - if i could be able to ping all of those computers, how should i set-up a workgroup on ppc and be able to map network drives through wlan link?
#4 - if i would be able to map the drive over wifi link, would i be able to add mine 20.000 mp3s to the pocketmusic's playlist and play them wirelessly?
thanks in advance!
And when i ping from PPC - i see on pc that "received" packets are raising -
ie. now it shows 12 packets received, when i run ping on ppc to pc, the
number increases to 16 (4 pings!) but all are time-outed....
And if the IP on both sides are set to "automaticly", they got assigned
169.254.*.* IP's. Then the ping goes through correctly but i can't still
access the network. The network bridge between LAN and WLAN connection only
made things worser, making my internet connection unusuable (DSL through the
same LAN connection) so i deleted the bridge. Now - ping is going but i
still cant map my pc's drive.... what could be the problem...
Same problem
Dakky,
I have the exact same problem. I bought a Netgear WG111 Wireless USB dongle. I created an ad-hoc network, connected to it but can't connect to the internet or browse my shared. On my desktop the sent packet go up but not the recieved.
Are we both being stupid, can't you connect your PPC to your PC using an ad-hoc network? I have now tried to connect with two different desktops to my XDA and a friends XDA IIs running WM5 to my desktop but had no success. I can connect to an access point and browse file/internet no problem.
I have an XDA EXEC and run XP Pro on desktop.
I've got similar problem. I have Linksys Wireless-G usb network adapter, i assign same class IP adresses (192.168.2.1, 192.168.2.2, mask 255.255.255.0) the wifi connects in ad-hoc modebut how can sync over wifi ?, if I am able to sync over wify i will be able to use my pc's internet connection wich is a lot faster than any gprs/edge
I don't think you can network in this way - basically you have a bunch of clients but no 'server' I think you need a wireless hub (with Internet connection in there somewhere) in there somewhere.
If you do a search on microsoft web site ther is some info about using a PC as an internet share for other PCs but you have to use a very specific IP address rnge for this and set the share PC up in a certain way
hi, im not able to connect to the net with my wizard.
i dont have a wireless router so am connecting directly to my laptop, the ad hoc connection i have made works fine for file tranfers, but not for activesync or connecting to the web in either PIE or minimo.
i know activesync isnt possible but surely i should be able to use the broaband from my laptop?
any pointers would be greatly appreciated. software? settings?
its a t-mobile uk vario with qtek test rom.
also anyone know of a remote control utility, i use logmein but would like something a little more menu/macro based for control of media.
cheers

Try turning on Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) on your laptop; that'll make your laptop act a bit more like a router, providing NAT services to the Wizard.
yeah i've tried that, and i've just tried bridging connections (dont really know much about that) but that hasnt worked either.

My configuration
Me too, I use ADHOC connection for my WLAN.
PC configuration:
ADSL connection shared
Adress IP:192.168.1.1 Mask:255.255.255.0
PocketPC configuration:
Adress IP:192.168.1.55 Mask:255.255.255.0 Gateway:192.168.1.1
DNS:80.10.246.2 for Wanadoo
Your problem is certainly the DNS.
You can put 192.168.1.1 too.
so it is possible? cool!.......but im still having problems.
i cant figure out how to enter these settings, not to sure where to put them,
iv tried puttin the DNS in the -> connections -> vpn
and -> network cards -> networks adapters -> SDIO WLAN Wireless Adapter
sorry to be a pain, but could you point me to where to get each address and where to put them?
also is there anything particular you did to set up the adhoc network? i just used the Windows XP wizard and then ticket the AdHoc option after.
my laptop is conected to the router and the router is connected to aol adsl.
the ip address of my laptop is showing as a simple 10.0.0. number on the LAN but "Autoconfiguration IP Address. . . : 169.254.235.147" for the WLAN
none of my setup has a static ip address, could this be causing the problems?
thanks
kevo
It's more hazardous without static adress but it's can work.
My PC has directly access to the Internet with a ADSL modem.
It's here (network cards -> networks adapters -> SDIO WLAN Wireless Adapter )
Apparently, it's ok for your PC and the Ad-Hoc mode.
Maybe, you should have your adress IP WLAN on the same network adress of your router.
I GOT IT WORKING!!!
I started again from scratch.
set a new WLAN. added new setup to the vario, added the DNS etc to the vario.
the problem i was having was the way i was sharing the internet connection, i was trying to shared the internet from the wireless to the lan rather than the internet from the lan to the wireless (if that makes sense to anyone!!!). i also ticked all the connection sharing services to allow them, just need to go through them and see which i dont need now.
thanks for the help guys

(its showing my transfer rate as 11Mbps, although i think iv done the G tweak and my laptop says its got a G card. what speeds should i be getting?)
Hello all,
I have just bought a Trinity, and was trying to connect to the internet through Wi-Fi... The problem is, I have to connect through PPPoE with a username/pw. Does anyone know how to do it on the Trinity?
Please note that I'm not too computer-savvy... I just know that my Windows-based computers don't connect to the internet automatically; I have to launch an application and enter a login/pw to connect. On my Mac, I have to launch airport AND 'connect through PPPoE' to connect. I heard there are wireless routers that have a PPPoE feature, and was wondering how that works? maybe I can just configure the PPPoE on the router, so that I don't have to go through the whole login process when connecting through Wi-Fi...?
Alternatively, is it possible to connect to the internet with the Trinity through my laptop's internet connection using Bluetooth or USB? (i.e. using the laptop as a "modem", not the other way around)
Thanks a bunch!
As far as I am aware the Trinity doesn't support the PPPoE protocol. What you will need to do is probably use internet passthrough with activesync. This is done by setting up your PDA with activesync, the passthrough should work automatically. If not try going to start->settings->connections->USB? (or something like that) and unchecking the box. I had to uncheck the box for passthrough to work.
The only other way would be to get the wireless router to do the PPPoE for you. This is what I do with my router, however the way to do it differs from router to router. You should check the manual to see if it is supported.
Hi,
I don't think this is currently possible but I do not see any reason why? Does anyone know if there is a 3rd party app to provide this?
Thanks,
Phillip
Possible ! (Well somewhat)
This is very much possible. I got it working as follows :
(1) Create a WiFi connection on Pocket Pc with ad-hoc feature and Open Security, make sure you select "Work" as the connection.
(2) Give the WiFi adapter on Pocket PC an internal address similar to 192.168.0.2 (255.255.255.0)
(3) On your PC/Laptop set WiFi adapter IP to 192.168.0.1 (255.255.255.0)
(4) You need a program like Pocket PC Proxy to be installed on the Pocket PC.
(5) Enable proxy settings on Laptop as 192.168.0.2:80 (or the port set on the proxy prog on ppc)
(6) Enable WiFi on ppc
And Voila ! You can browse internet using the connection on your ppc.
Hi,
Thanks, I will give this a try. However, I can't seem to find this piece of software (Pocket PC Proxy). Can you point me in the right direction?
Thanks
Here you go...
Thanks for the download, I'm using an HTC Touch (Elf) with WM6. I can't seem to figure out how to create an ad-hoc wifi connection?
(Sorry to be a pain but i think that this will benefit others too!)
Ahaa, I managed to figure out how to create an adhoc network on the Pocket PC, I assigned it the correct IP (as above) and basically followed the instructions.
I'm actually trying to get my iPod Touch to connect to the net via the HTC Touch.
I iPod sees the wifi connection and connects perfectly, I can even assign the ip and subnet mask. However, I simply can not connect to the internet either with or without the proxy. Any suggestions on what I am missing?
THanks
What kind of an internet connection do you have on the ppc ?
- GPRS/EDGE ? Is it always connected/on ?
Got it working, you can ignore the following
Thanks!

Hi, here is everything I have done:
Connections, Internet
Modem: T-Mobile Internet, GPRS (UK, no edge)
Proxy Settings: This network connects to the internet
This network uses a proxy server to conncet to the internet
149.254.291.132
(This was all set by the phone when I switched it on)
My Work Connection:
Nothing set up here
WIFI
Add New...
Network Name: test
Connects to: Work
This is a device-to-device (ad-hoc) connection
Authentication: Open
Data Encryption: Disabled
This seems to create an ad-hoc connection and sits there with 'Connecting' until another device connects to it.
Network Adapters
My network card connects to: Work
IEEE 802.11b/g Compatible WIFI....
Edit:
Use specific IP address:
192.168.0.2
255.255.255.0
(Everything else blank)
Wireless LAN
SSID: test
Mode: 802.11 Ad hoc
Channel: 11
When I connect two devices together the IP shown under advanced seems to read 192.168.0.21 (I think this should end .2 so not sure why it isn't)
If I connect my laptop I can 'ping' 192.168.0.2 and that works but both my laptop and ipod touch do not seem to be able to connect to the internet.
On the ipod touch I simply get 'Server not found' or something similar.
(I have remembered to run PocketPCProxy)
Yes, the GPRS is connected whenever I run PocketPCProxy.
I would really appreciate any help you can give, I really like using the browser on my ipod Touch but don't really want to go the whole hog and buy an iPhone because it is so tied down and restricted.
Thanks,
Phillip
I don't know what I have done but suddenly it works, now it comes up and shows the correct ip on my pocket pc.
Anyway, thanks for your help!
Hi everyone,
I have been trying to ad-hoc connect my PC (Lenovo X60s with XPSP2) to HTC Touch via WiFi to be able to share files and stream music.
It did connect and pinged ok, however the two just refuse to see one another on their networks.
Does anyone have any successful experience trying for the same?
Regards,
Madana
I tried this between my TyTN and TyTN II, the latter being the gateway, but the TyTN insists on still using GPRS for its internet instead of the wifi. Very annoying, and it's runing WM5 so (i dont think) you can't turn of the GPRS like you can with WM6.
Does anyone know how to make it use wifi, and wifi only for internet?
Thanks,
Sebastian
i have installed pocket pc proxy after a file called ......ppc3.arm.cab (i don't remember how it begins) but it doesn't work... any idea?
same here the pocket pc proxy when i run shows a fatal error in running it.
what should we do??
Hello,
I have samsung c6712 with wifi connected with internet near internet company with router as it is free for me, setting and pasaword is setted by those guys on my phone but they didnot give me their password and settings.
i like to run/use internet on my pc (xp32) with cable connection. How can I use that
[email protected]
I am getting ready to head on vacation and I want to use my 8525 as my "Gateway" as there will be 5 of us with laptops and I want to share my 3G connection so here is what I did. I connect my 8525 to my Laptop via usb, I start internet sharing on the 8525 and in my laptop (vista) under network connections I see Local Area Connection 6, remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device. I right click this connection and select Sharing, and enable internet connection sharing on it. Then what I did was took my router (linksys) and disabled dhcp, but enabled wireless and didnt set any wep or wpa. I connect from my laptop to a port on the router (not the internet port) and then goto another laptop to see if I have internet. I dont, I can see the ssid, I can connect but I do not have internet access. Should I use a crossover cable? What do I have to do so that all of us can have internet thru my phone? Oh, my laptop does have internet (from the usb connection on the phone). I tried to setup the router so that dhcp was enabled, but then I kept getting an ip conflict error, so we cant do that. Also I am not getting an ip on the wireless, it has an ip of like 169.254.177.12.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Jim
There a software which you can install on 8525 and turn it into a wifi internet sharing but I don't know if it capable of handing up to 5 laptops. You might be able to use this software and get a router with some custom firmware which allow bridging then set it up to have router access the internet from 8525 wifi and share it among the 5 laptops but I am not sure if you could bridging and do wifi AP on the same router if not then you'll probably need to have 2 router one to bridge from 8525 wifi and then connect cable to another router that will be an AP for the laptops.
That would be my best guess of doing this unless one of the laptop can do AP via wifi when 8525 is plugged into usb slot.
