Sharing ActiveSync connection over WiFi on WM6 - Networking

Hi.
Is it possible to share the ActiveSync internet connection from the computer (on my Wizard WM6) over WiFi?
Basic scheme: Computer with internet access->ActiveSync to Wizard->Sharing the activesync internet connection on Wizard over WiFi.
Any ideas?

that feature i recall was removed from activesync at one point cant recall what version
it should however be possible to setup an adhoc network between the pda and the pc without using activesync to share internet to the pda

Yes, its possible, and does work. The thing is that I have two laptops, one with wifi, one without (lan network). Anyways, thanks for help.

just connect to AS 4 and use it (of couse your PC must have internet connection)
I'm using ActiveSync 4.1, WIFI to connect my PC to the internet and an USB port to synchronize my Pocket (SPV M3000 /Qtek 9100)
When my Pocket PC is connected to the PC, this "lock" the WIFI acces to the Internet. After synchronisation, it's necessary to reboot my computer to be ale to use the WIFI acces to internet.
Do you have an idea to correct this problem (this never happens before with ActiveSync 3.8) ?
Thanks in advance.
Thank God for that I'm having the same problem when i connect my wizard to my PC for active Sync my wifi in fact my internet connection locks up. When i look in network connections on my PC I have another Local Area Connection 3 ??????
But my web is locked ????
As soon as i disconect my wizard i loose the LAC3 but have to reboot my PC to get web acess again???
Anyone got any ideas???
I dont have wifi acces at home but when i connect to the pc which is connected to adsl, the wizard is also connected to the lan as i am able to surf the internet. It seems perhaps you have established another connection via your pc? my wifi is disconnected btw.

I have the same problem. After a tip from someone on the MS Active sync forum who said it may be something to do with security I have worked out the following.
1) All computers loose all netork connections if they are connected to the router wirelessly and I try to Activesync.
2) If the Activesunc computer is connected to the router via CAT5 and I Active Sync then all is ok.
3) If I disable wireless security both WEP and WPA I can Activesync with my laptop connected wirelessly via to the router without loosing my network connections.
4) Something strange is happening still: When the PDA is connected to Activesync both computers keep popping up the UPNP icon telling me new network device found, even though its been connected for some time.
5) I have tested with WPA security, I will test with WEP next to see if it still has the same problem.

I hit this issue with my home LAN when syncing via cable - all wireless clients dropped their connections and I got an earful from the lodger :roll:
I found that this doesn't occur when syncing via Bluetooth.
Mmm, thanks for the info - I spent hours trying to get this running yesterday and hitting the same problems - I actually cocked up my entire network and had to reboot everything! Will try bluetooth later...

HOWTO connect to the office lan

Hi
I have a Tmobile Vario (wizard).
AT work I use a laptop that is connected to the lan via the ethernet. The pc has wifi and bluetooth. Can I piggyback on this to get a connection to the internet using the vario ?
Thanks
if your toy has bt or wifi, yes you can...
It has BT and WiFi, but what do I need to do to connect to the office laptop to utilise its internet connection ?
Regards
Max
If you can, directly configure your phone to connect to the wifi connection, ignoring the pc.
However, if that's not possible, get your pc to connect to the net, then activesync to your pc using bluetooth and use activesync internet pass through to access the net on your phone.

Internet on the smartphone via bt

Hello
Can anybody help me how i can set up my smartphone that i can connect to the internet via BT?
I like to use the broadband internet connection of my home pc for browsing on the smartphone.
Greets,
Che
unless you set it to block it when you are connected with activesync you are connected to what ever network connection the pc have

thanks for the answer. One thing i don't know is how i can set the phones internet explorer to use the bt connection and not the gprs.
i already have a activesync connection to the pc via bt, internet connection is shared.
in activesync, connection setting: this computer is connected to: maike it connected to the internet. that usually does the trick.
if you use a WM5 defice it's probably the only thing you can do to go online via BT, if you use a wm2003, it's whole different story. you can use PAN profile on the PDA and on the PC. I personally prefer the later one.
system->connections->connections->advanged
changed from myISP to mynetwork
then it use bluetooth for internet
and
" if you use a wm2003, it's whole different story. you can use PAN profile on the PDA and on the PC. I personally prefer the later one."
is only valid if you dont have vidcomm bluetooth stack
hi
thank you for the good inputs, that was what i have searched for.
It was a bit curios for me, because the OS Language of my phone is german, but now it is working!

Using BT to check hotmail

Hi all,
I set up my Trinity to also check my hotmail account. Ofcourse, when I do this outside the confines of my home Wifi network, the P3600 automatically connects to hotmail via my UMTS connection.
When I'm on the road I don't mind this, but when I'm at the office, where there is no wifi, I would like to use the connection my PC has to the internet. I was thinking about using BT for this but don't know if this is possible at all...
Anyone with suggestions?
I don't think this is possible via Activesync, but if possible I would like to avoid the use of it anyway...
Thx for any suggestions!
if connected to activesync one is connected to the network of the pc with activesync
unless steps have been made on the pc, pda or office network to block it
i surf with bluetooth connection to activesync all the time
Likewise i use the USB active sync connection to connect to the internet on my Trinity, and Alpine as well. The only restriction, as mentioned, is that if the PC has limited access rights then so does the PDA.
Hey thanks Rudegar & deedee, I didn't know this actually
So simple and obvious, but I never tried it out
Guess I'll have to install Activesync on the [email protected] too then....

about the wifi option then if there is a wifi router it's easy
otherwise one have to make an adhoc network with the pc
and have that do the routing to it's wired network
How configure ad-hoc wifi network on pocket pc
How configure ad-hoc wifi network on pocket pc for using internet connection on desktop pc?
thanks
dont know of any software which makes pdas act the role as internet router
but boy have many people asked about it maybe it will be made sooner or later so
far only way i know of is bluetooth or usb where the pda dont act as router but as modem for the pc
Connection through destop pc
I have 2 different pda,
wizard and bluangel.
I need to connect the pda to internet through desktop pc.
This is the correct question.
connect to the pc with adhoc wifi network
and have the pc route adhoc wifi traffic to it's internet connection
it's really more of a general pc network thing then a pocketpc thing
as what needs to be don to make it work is the same thing as if the pda was a laptop or another pc
Yes But
Thanks
But I need basically information on this, do you know where I can found it?
bye
