All ISPs in my country provide me some parameters for GPRS conecting. They are:
- APN
- username
- password
- IP as Gateway (GGSN, I think)
One of my ISPs config system with GGSN is automatic, I don't need setup the IP, Gateway or Proxy. So, I connect to the Internet OK.
Other ISP provides Proxy Server with port. Then I connect to Internet OK, too.
But one of my ISPs, config GGSN manualy (I think). I setup my mobilephone (as smatphone with Symbian OS) OK, but I can't setup my XDA II mini. Connection is connected but I can't access to Internet. I don't know how to use the IP (which provied by my ISP).
Can anyone help me. Pls
Please help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
H6365 connects to internet ok with my SIM
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)
Hi there
I have an XDAIIs with a GPRS connection, I can access my company emails
I want to connect to my work VPN to access the network
I have set the VPN ip address in my work connections, when I select connect to my VPN it dials my GPRS and connects but doesnt call the ip address
Any ideas what I am doing wrong or what I should be doing?
Regards
Tim
throw ipsec away and use openvpn and brand new openvpn for pocketpc port...
Trust me... it's well worth the try (and it's opensource!!!)
Bye

I have problem with VPN connection to my privat network.
VPN connection works if I am on cable, wifi, but whan I am connected over 3G, HSDPA, than my connection works for about 5 seconds and than I hear sound from WM6 side that my 3G connection was broaken.
I can go to WM side and try with VPN connection there and it wont connect. But strange thing is, that if my VISTA is shutdown than I CAN connect with WM6 to my VPN server.
Please help if sombody had the same problem...
bye

I setup Hamachi yesterday on my Shift, on both the WM and Vista sides of the device and it worked perfectly. Of course, each "side" looks like a completely different node on the network, but it was really cool to remote desktop into my home and office machines from VM.
Regards,
Dave
Which VPN client software and version are you using? Or is this window PPTP vpn?
I had some problems with Cisco VPN Dialer client and the pasword manager function of the finger print reading software. Once I turned off the password manger function both the VPN dialer and finger print reader are happy to coexist. ( issue might not be problem if you are not using a RSA fob like I have to)
I am using both on my shift Cisco VPN for work and the Windows PPTP connection to reach my home network. So I can confirm that they both work from Vista and that windows PPTP works from WM6.
Nothing special, just window PPTP vpn client. My internet connection works perpectly, but when I make a VPN connection, 3G just drops the line and than reconects when I disconnect VPN connection... But VPN is allways working for about 5 seconds, a few successful pings...
I just used the magic button FN+F3 and whn vista come up i have the same problem. That means that tre problem resides somewhere in WM part. I am still looking... The problem could be that my service provider and my contry are not on the shifts list, so there could be some connecion settings problems... On my other sony vaio the same data card and HSDPA connection and VPN works OK.
Now I am playing with WM side. I can establish VPN connection to my server, bat as soon as I try to send over some data it simply diskonects 3G connection and that establish it again, without VPN connection afcourse.
So my connection to VPN is working, but when I start internet explread try to conect to any web site, 3G connection restarts.
Any suggestions or somthing....

Hi.
Is there a fix to this? I am getting exactly the same problem. 3G works for surfing on vista and exchange push/browsing on WM side - As soon as I put a pptp VPN across to the work network, the 3G on the WM side drops, and if I am looking at m network connections in Vista, the "LOCAL AREA CONNECTION 2" network "card" disappears from network settings and the VPN stops.
If I disconnect the VPN, the 3G connection restores itself and I can browse again.
any help appreciated as I need pptp to work so I can ditch my laptop!

Have you tried going into the TCP/IP properties of the VPN connection, then 'Advanced' and removed the tick from 'use default gateway on remote network'. That fix the problem for me.

Yes, I did that, but then the internet works fine and the VPN and the 3G stay up okay, but everything seems to go to the local internet and nothing goes via the VPN tunnel.

Hi,
Probably you have to change the MTU settings in the Local Area Connection, here's the command:
netsh interface ipv4 set subinterface "Local Area Connection" mtu=1440 store=persistent
1440 is only a suggestion. If you low more the MTU you will notice a decrease in speed/bandwith but 1440 will be unnoticeable and will let VPN connections work.

Have you actually got a VPN session working? From what I can see, the problem is the way that the Vista side uses the modem.
If I do a route print from Vista with the VPN up, it doesn't add any routes, so sends all traffic to 192.168.160.1, which appears to be the IP of the modem/WM side of the device.
If I manually put in
ROUTE ADD 0.0.0.0 MASK 0.0.0.0 192.168.99.1
Which is the IP of the VPN router, all traffic gets routed out down the VPN and it works for about 5 minutes, then the "Local Area Connection" network card in Manage Networks, disappears. If I then drop the VPN (because strangely it stays up) the LAC card comes back...

I didn't tried to establish a VPN with my Shift, but I found this MTU problem with many GPRS and 3G connections when establishing VPN (PPTP and also IPSEC ones).
I don't see how to help you more, sorry

vista utilizes ICS from WM6 to get the connection. that's why you see 192.168.0.1
We had a similar problem with Cisco VPN Client constantly disconnecting when using 3G Cards. We use a Cisco ASA 5510.
One solution is to disable the Keep Alive function in the ASA for the specific VPN Profile.
Hope that helps!
Try your Networks VPN APN - it could be an IP conflict.
I tried cisco vpn client over hsdpa and it worked.
I still have problem connecting with microsoft PPTP client. After few seconds connection vista-wm just drops and comes back again when PPTP client disconects.
Problem is ICS from WM6 in my appinion...
Please help me

Hi guys!
I've seen that there is no way to have PPPoE connection on windows mobile! It is absurd: there are tons of software and nobody wrote a program for PPPoE connection...
I have to use PPPoE with my wifi connection and the only one solution seems to change my wifi modem/router!
Any suggestion?
eh! Why do you need PPPoE on your phone? PPPoE (and A) is used by your router to ISP not you phone.
I'm not sure what you need so can you clarify this for me
Thanks Dave
Hi Dave!
My ISP gave me a wifi/ethernet modem without the possibility to set inside the PPPoE parameters needed for the internet connection. For this reason I have to create a PPPoE connection under windows.
I have an ethernet connection between my PC and the adsl modem: if I don't make PPPoE on my PC I can just access to the configuration panel of the modem with my browser... It's the same via wifi.
Without PPPoE on windows mobile I can't access to internet via wifi, but just via activesync (USB/Bluetooth).
Like Telecom Italia Alice service... simple solution (but not so elegant) is buy a router with WiFi and connect it to WiFi Modem then you can connect every device you want.

I still don't get it. you ISP gave you the router. When you plug this in can you not access the internet then?
I think you need to be talking to your ISP about issues with the router. You dont need to setup a PPPoE connection on your PC either this is still set on the router. The network card should pick a IP address from the router via DHCP and this is how they talk to each other. Same goes for your phone.
Who is your ISP and what router did they send you and we may be able to point you in the right direction
what you people dont realize that the dude needs to use ppoe dialer from his windows to establish the internet connection itsself...n while he has a wifi router he cant connect to the internet becuase of this crap old service type
Yea I'm with Telecom Italia Alice but my provider doesn't give me a modem/router with the possibility to set inside the PPPoE parameters! It is impossible to have dhcp with it too, but it is not a problem.
The PPPoE connection is not set inside the modem/router (Alice W-Gate)!
This situation is common for millions of user here in Italy, for all who use the modem/router provided by our ISP. I don't think that Telecom has anything fully customizable for my case...
