I am having issues connecting to a PPTP VPN using the inbuilt Connection on my dopod d810 (WM6 Official).
I have set it up (In the connections under settings) and try to connect.
It doesn't connect, however I get no error message and it seems strange that I have to go to the edit settings part of the connection to actually try and connect.
I was reading on WM5 that there was a VPN connection under connections?
Can anyone give me some clues on how to troubleshoot?
Cheers

Hey,
I'm using a Qtek 2020i which I believe is the same as a xdaIIi. I have a wireless network set up at home and have managed to connect to it with the built-in Wlan device in my Qtek but every time I try to connect to the internet or send/receive emails it tries to connect to gprs even though it shows wifi is connected.
I have read some of the other forum posts here and many of them say to check that my network card is set to connect to the internet however where it says 'my network card connects to' there is only a blank box after it - no option to choose work or internet??
Has anyone got any advice on how to resolve this issue.
Thanks in avdance.
system->Connections->Connections->advanced
and pick the connection of your cellphone isp as the connection for
programs which use internet access
that is already the case so it can't be that I'm afraid
I am having the same problem with my MDA Vario(KJam).
It tries to connect to GPRS even if i have wireless lan connected
anyone know how i can sort this
thanks
As noted in another post, simply creating a dummy gprs connection created a default conne tion instead of the telco gprs.
I am trying to establish a VPN connection but cannot get the connection to work.
I am using the built in MS VPN client of Win Mobile v5.0 (5.1.1700 build 14352.0.1.0)
I am having real problems getting a VPN connection set up with our network.
I have tried both PPTP and L2PT
When L2TP, I was authenticating with a preshared key
Firewall logs show PPTP negotiation successful, and issues a VPN IP address to the device
It can ping the firewall external interface, but times-out trying to reach an internal address
The VPN session is established, but the firewall logs don't register either deny or allow traffic for each internal ping request, rather the firewall packet error count increments for each failed attempt.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I had problems with PPTP - gave up
I hate the way Windows mobile labels connections.
I connect to many customers with PC Anywhere, VNC, SSH etc and I have access via serveral different windows PPTP VPN.
Like you I setup the details in connections and try to dial.
Nothing seems to happen. The connect option does not change to disconnect. So I assume it is not connected.
I have a feeling these connection do not work over WIFI. and perhaps work over T-mobile 3g only, to maximise data revenues.
Seems very buggy to me. I would really like someone to post a working example/Instructions. Can I get a refund on my MDA PRo?
MS please note it is not a connection to my work or an internet connection it is to a customer for remote support, likewise I often connect remotely to my home via PPTP from my office.
confirmed VPN works over t-mobile 3g not Wifi
SEems the VPN links only work over 3g not Wi FI.
I'm using a PPTP connection over either 3G of WIFI depending on te active connection.
- When WIFI is active the PPTP connection connects using WIFI (I can switch off the phone, so it must be using that one)
- When no WIFI connection is active it automatically connects to 3G first, and than starts the PPTP session
In network management I'v set:
Internet:
Internet (the one containing the 3G connection)
select 'this network connects to the Internet' on the proxy tab.
private network:
My Work (the one that contains the vpn connection)
do NOT select 'this network connects to the Internet' on the proxy tab.
So as you can see, nothing special (I'm using a Qtek 9000 with standard Wm5 ROM)
Hello to everybody
i own a Trinity (i love it!) upgraded to wm6 (shadowmite rom) and radio 1.46.00.11.
i am desperately trying to connect via wifi to my home network to use my flat adsl, but i have no success.
Besides i also have a Blue Angel with WM2003 (i still love it..) and i dont have any problems at all with it to access my network/internet thru wifi!
I am using a wifi router/modem (zyxel prestige 660 hw) with Adsl2+ and italian provider liberomini 4mb
my PC is winXP MCE sp2 and its connected to the router with ethernet cable
I have set up both PDA's exactly the same way:
-wifi card :connects to 'my work'
-IP address: assigned by server
-authenticationpen
-data encryption : disabled
-connections/advanced/networks: both set to 'wy work'
-proxy settings: internet connection enabled / proxy server disabled
on the router i disabled all protections/firewall/encryption/passowrd/etc.
dhcp is enabled both on the router and the PC
both PDA's connect to the Zyxel router and show very with good signal strenght.
the router recognizes the signal of both pda's and displays correct mac-address and ip address of both
BUT,
THE BLUE ANGEL CAN BROWSE THE WEB USING TE WIFI/ADSL CONNECTION AND CAN ACCESS MY PC DIRECTORIES/RESOURCES, WHILST THE TRINITY DOES NOT!
it cannot locate webpages and does not connect to network.
i tried all possible combinations of wlan/wifi/connection settings, but no way!
Am i doing something wrong? is there any special setting to be done with wm6?
i dont believe the fault is in shadowmite's rom as even before flashing to this fantastic rom i had tried once with wm5 and had same problem (though i did not dig too much in it)
Can anybody help me?
Check if you are using a proxy in your gsm settings. If it is so, use someting like Advanced Settings or Trinityhacks or something ele to disable the proxy during wi-fi connections.
Ciao
wm6+wm2003+ router wifi
thks yr reply claros.
i checked my gsm settings (you mean my ISP connection settings?) and there is not mention of proxy server in there
i only found proxy server option in MY Work connection settings and it is disabled.
all settings are exactly same as on the blue angel which is working fine...
do you know if this is a common problem with wm6?
any suggestion how to proceed?
found solution!!!!!
eureka
i found the solution in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=315982
its very easy! just go to wlan power tab and move the horizontal slide fully to the left (best performance)
magically my triniry now is connecting to internet via wifi!
great!
ps: still cannot access myh pc directories but i guess i will solve by installing Resco explorer
thanks
