Hy do any one know a wireless manager to do the folowing things; make profiles for each wireless you use including wep-key (if it is), including IP adres, if it's static or if it's dynamic (this is the moust important thing becouse at work i have static ip's and at home i have dynamic) thanks

Is it possible to have network profiles that are switchable? I have to connect at work with a static IP and it's really annoying to have to type it in each time. There must be some way to switch back and forth between DHCP and Static configurations.

Can we assume that it is not possible to use the same static IP at work and at home. I do even though my laptops etc use DHCP at home to get theirs. My TyTn connects just fine without changing any settings as the settings are stored automatically.

No, the same IP address will not work on both, nor will the gateway or dns settings.
I have a wifi router at my office - Netgear, I am using WPA-TKIP as security options, the problem i am facing is - i have setup a passphrase on the router, but on phone, it just asks for network key, i need a way to enter a pass phrase, are there any updates to wifi for WM6 which can help me to get out of this situation?
I cannot change my existing WIFI settings on router, my other machines and devices are using the same configuration and now if i change it to WEP or something else, i will have to upload all other machines.
I cannot move to an open system as well.
please help
wpa without wpa-psk wont protect your network from being used by other ppl. i suggest u to choose wpa-psk (pre-shared-key). u choose a password and it is easy to setup for the other clients on your wireless lan. just enter password one time on the other clients and they are online. and wpa-psk works with wm6. greetz spaxxi
Where it says Network Key is where you enter the passphrase as used on your router.
On my SPV E650 (vox) I have WPA-PSK with data encryption set to TKIP
Use IEE 802.1x network access control box ticked and EAP type as smart card or certificate.
Also I have set networks to access as All available but on my netgear under wirless settings I have set up enable access list with the mac of the phone (which you can get from connection settings or with wirless on the phone switched on the router should detect the mac from phone broadcast which you can then accept as a trusted station.
This means only my phone can connect to the router even though my ssid is broadcast.
Hope that helps.

the sip client you have works
w pa-st k is the best most efficient way to run and your net gear has 3 different ways in but the paraphrase is fine. use the para phrase where it says key go right through it, if i recall the client has ports but ur going direct you dont need it. Your just and to log into your router regular client is for web based app go right at the router use wififofum and then just make sure your sip is on meaning registry is live dont worry about the settings. Let me try to make sense all next ell are voip just an ip i don't care what anyone says. your do not need a web based sip just leave the sip alone but try activating it remember it a phone turn it on but 1 thing give out static ips u will succeed. static wpa-stk intra net ur just taking to the device no need for any barriers. you could hook up computer up slap head phones and a mic in the analog jacks from the 80's and you have no succeeded in ? Voip. all that matters is the router is set right and sees only you for the duration of your call. Most likely wil end up turning that whit wpn8xxx into a access point have fun don't ask. But it only took me 3 hours to realize i left to come back into my office for what a paid for call. And the day wireless is everywhere i will be a lan expert.
ciao good luck don't orry just look at it and you will see what makes sense.
Hi,
I would like to know if the following is possible:
1. Use a PDA with WiFi configured with a static IP address
2. Use another WiFi device (PC, Web Cam, etc) with a static Ip address
3. Connect the two together point to point - No WiFi access ponit, etc.
In my minds eye this is straightforward and I don;t imagine I need a hub.
Am I right?
Hello,
When looking in the wifi options of my HD2 I saw an option to set a static IP adres with dns etc.
Since I use static IP addresses at home and DHCP disabled, I set it up with a static IP. Works fine...at home. When I was at work I wanted to connect to the wifi there, but was unable to do so, probably because he was trying to use the static IP from home...
Why isn't the HD2 switching between these connections/IP settings?....
If this is not possible, why did they implement the option for a static IP on a mobile phone?
Ty
Just like on your laptop, if you assign a static IP it will keep it even if you move to work and connect there. You have to remove it manually to switch back to DHCP. Nothing uncommon.
If this is not possible, why did they implement the option for a static IP on a mobile phone?

Uhm didn't you give the answer? To connect to a network that has no DHCP...
I mean something as network profiles for each wireless network.
For example on my previous phone, a Samsung Jet, when I looked for wireless networks, I could set up everything for each different network he found.
Meaning when I selected my wifi from home he used the settings with the static IP from that profile, and when I was at work he selected the wireless profile with a DHCP IP from work.
Now I only have 1 set of options regardless of where I want to connect.
A static IP is not really "mobile" friendly to
There's nothing to do that by default in WM.
Seems theres an app for it though:

Well, add a DHCP server at home
The static IP address is a setting for the network card, as you well know. The network card does not change just because you go to a different location. Also, due to a bug with Windows Mobile, you may want to forget about using a static IP address. I don't know about 6.5, but with 6.1 it caused my data connection to try and use the same IP address, which was obviously an issue with my service provider, who just refused the connection every time. I was without a data connection for a day, before I figured out what the problem was.
Hi.
I need about a software, that allow to set multiple WIFI profiles, because in my home i need to SET MANUALY HD2 WIFI with net adress (192.168.1.1 etc.), but when i go out, i need to catch FREE WIFI SPOT so i need to set rapidly WIFI Configuration with AUTO IP (and when i'm at home, return to Manual Adress).
I had tried WIFI Profiles, but i can't understand how i can put AUTO IP ADRESS there.
Please help me !
Compliments for great site !
There is a program called Wifi Monster, have not explored it a lot, but sounds like it might do what you want ...
Just search for it ....
Hope it helps ...
i'm curious about why you have to use a static IP for your HD2 at home. you can set your home router for DHCP (just like the rest of the WIFI hot spots you like to connect to). if assigning a specific IP to your HD2 or to other machines on your network is important, why not use "static DHCP"? static DHCP is configured in your router and will ensure that each device gets the same IP address every time.
i have configured my home router so that 10 IP addresses are available for machines. the first 5 IP addresses are assigned to specific machines using static DHCP. the rest of the slots are available for guests and friends who occasionally bring their laptops/smartphones to my place and need to get on my network. the router works intelligently by reserving the static DHCP IP addresses only for my specified machines and uses the rest dynamically for unspecified machines.
on top of all this, i have MAC address filtering to keep a tight ship.

Maybe he needs a static IP for Work, some places still use statics ....
Thanks ASCIIker & WATCHER64
I'll try all your suggestions, however the first work fine, i'll fix MANUAL ADRESS on DHCP and put AUTO on HD2.
All work fine now, but i'll try also WIFI Monster when i need only MANUAL ADRESS on my ROUTER.
Thanks to ALL !
