i want to connect to a PPPOE (adsl) internet connection with my X1's Wifi !!!
please help me !!!
Hi there, I think that you are talking about two different things here, the first is the ADSL mode PPOE, you need a so called ADSL "modem" or gateway (that includes the "modem" and other stuff, like an ethernet hub, router and WiFi access point).
To gain access to the ADSL with your PDA, you need an ADSL gateway with the WiFi access point, there are many of them, just be sure to buy the appropriate thing for your provider/region/speed.
If you want any other help, be more specific, in this way you'll get a more specific answer.
Cheers
Ps, remember to read (not only in XDA) but elsewhere as this is a very basic question and you might end up buying something wrong for your needs.

Irrelevent
The connection protocol/method (PPPoE) is irrelevent here. To connect to the PPPoE connection you need a capable router/modem. This will of course need to be connected to a Wifi Router (or have one inbuilt) in order to "share" the network with your device (including the internet connection). As far as the Xperia is concerned it's connected to an internet capable local area network, your WAN (Wide Area Network (ASDL Internet Connection)) network type is totally unimportant as far as the phone is concerned.

Please forgive me if this topic has already been covered here - I've spent the last 3 hours searching but may have missed it.
Although I have a K-Jam, my boss has an XDA Exec / Universal and he's asked for my help in setting up VPN connectivity. This will be a VPN connection over wireless & / or phone network data connection into a Windows Server, used for syncing with Exchange, Terminal Services, etc.
So please (if possible) can someone who's successfully setup a VPN connection please post a step-by-step guide to doing so, or point me to a thread that I've missed.
TIA
VPN on JJ
I have done it, but not able to get it to work. i logged a support call on imate, and they sent me the steps outlining the obvious, and still not able to get it to work. I was only interested in the VPN over WIFI using my home wireless & ADSL to that I could operate Terminal Services.
The VPN does connect, but when TSC was running, it cut off. Going into connections, and create a new VPN is an easy exercise if you know what you are doing, stopping it from disconnecting was the diffiiculty.
I was told, but cant vouch the accuracy, you need your phone networks assistance to do this over a GPRS internet connection as they have to open a port, again, not sure.
There will be more knowledgeable people on this network that can help, if not, then I will try some more.
Hi all,..
I thought It had something to do with the exclusion of a specific ip range or domain name.
Try to go to settings, connections, go to the screen where you make the VPN connection. In this menu klick the Advanced Tab, klick on exceptions and type in the (for instance: 192.168.1.0) range or the domain name of your company if you connect through domain name...
Now I've got an question,.. setting up an VPN connection is not my problem, the problem is that I would like the connection to be established online when I want to go to for instance: 10.0.0.0. Only when (in every program) I connect to this IP range the VPN connection schould be automatticly established. On the original T- ROM I had that fixed, now on the I-mate rom I cannot fix that.
can some one help me making this working? so when I connect to my home server TS, of connect to a home share on the road the VPN conection will automatticly be established...
Best regards
AD
Hi
Dig out my post in this thread:

Should tell you what you want to know.
VPN works much much better on the universal than it did on my BA!
Nigel
Yep,..
after many atempts it's working now...
in the exceptions menu, on the exclusions the option
192.168.1.0 is'n't the correct option.... It must be:
192.168.1.* in order to specify the whle 192.168.1.--- range

Hi all. I've connected the xda (with WLAN card) to an adhoc net at home and was able to browse the net/connect around (via broadband through a gateway comp). Now I want to hook it up with a laptop (doesn't have wifi) as a wireless adapter. How exactly do I connect the two? Is it by "wireless modem"? Any pointers appreciated. Thanks.
Yep,
You need the driver & usbmodem_dialer. Lucky you I uploaded it a week ago to the ftp under usb_modem. It contains the inf for the laptop, the dialer & a document with the steps to follow
Regards, M
Hi. Thanks for the advice. But I'm not trying to dial GPRS as internet in the PPC is already provided by the SD WLAN card. I'm trying to connect the laptop w/ the PPC so that it can use the internet in the adhoc network. Can it work in the setup? Also, Im assuming that the "wireless modem" software in PPC has to be running? Thanks!
Just follow the document, including the start of the wireless modem program. I think it will work with wifi as well, haven't got a wifi card yet. Maybe Santa can arrange one.
Cheers, M
Well, I tried that and it didn't work. Error 777 or something. Can't connect. Thanks anyway. Seems that the whole thing is suited for GPRS connections. Tried several times on my laptop but it timed out.
Take a good look at the modem init-string. Sometimes I've to add a ,0
Done that (just add ,0 to the end of APN in the extra strings?) but still no go. I'm really confused now. Queried the modem and it seemed to respond just fine. As I'm not going to use the GPRS at all, what should I put in username, password and APN? Also, what about "preset GPRS" in wireless modem? Thanks.
Frankly I don't know, I'm a gprs user and hoped this could solve your problem. Maybe it's only for gprs usage. APN & user/password are usually for gprs & I only had errors in 600 range.
Regards, M
Well, seems that I've hit a brick wall here. Thanks for all the help anyway.
im still with you sekinoss - this woud be a cool thing to do.
As a semi literate PC user I get to go to a lot of poeples places and sort their pc problems (for my sins!)
I've a friend who isnt internet savvy and has a wireless setup for his wifes laptop downstairs and his own pc connecteed to a modem(!) upstairs. Hes non intenet savvy and I want to get windows updates etc for him for the upstairs pc which is generally not net connected. I'd love to just take my PPC there with a usb lead and use it to get him on broadband wireless upstairs and update his windows machine properly. (He usually doesnt bother with the windows updates as they 'take too long' on a modem. Hmm.) Surely this would be a cool use of the PPC - I can't understand that there seems to be no software/method to do this sort of thing.
Ah well! :?:
this may sound crazy..
when i conect my htc621 to my PC.. it gets internet access.. so i just wanna know if theres any way my htc can share the internet access via Bluetooth to other devices..
such a nokia N-gage, a 3250 and a Palm Lifedrive..
the thing i want is that my htc becoming some kind of router (dunno the language) ..
this is possible??? and what soft do i need ...
Short answer, yes.
Long answer, probably not.
Theres two ways that I know of accomplishing this:
1: Both devices must support Bluetooth PAN (Personal Area Networking) profile, then the built in Internet Sharing application can share your internet connection with another device, I use this regularly when travelling with my laptop. Concievably it could be used to share the connection with any other Bluetoon enabled device that supports the PAN profile.
2: I spotted an application recently that claimed to allow the handheld device to be used as a wifi router. I had only very minimal success when I tried it our, as I recall it presents itself as an Ad-Hoc Network, then routes all the traffic out to the internet via the GPRS/3G connection. A good proof of concept, but for me of limited value. This will require the device you want to connect to the internet to have WiFi capability.
I hope this is useful, but I realise now after writing all this that your question doesnt specifically describe the connectivity you want to achieve.
Cheers!

Just found the application, here is a link:

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.
D'rath
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...
Hi all,
I have a question for all you guru of networking.
I have a Modem Router ADSL Netgear DG834GT. I always used it with cable connection and worked fine. Now I moved to a new home that still is not povided by adsl line. Right now I am using my HD2 in tethering with my laptop to connect to internet. I was thinking about the possibility to make my Netgear DG834GT to share my HD2 connection via WiFI. Would it be possible? Can I share my ppc internet connection by using my Netgear DG834GT router. If yes, how to configure router?. I simply have tried to connect my HD2 to the Netgear DG834GT...and even if it connected to the router, the router didn't share internet connection coming from ppc...
THX so much and forgive me if my question is...a wired one.

Yes, of course, and I am using it. But What I should try it's different. I want my Netgear modem router to share not adsl line, but my ppc line.

Well your question is, erhm, very wireless, actually
Anyhow, you should be able to achieve what you want by setting up default route on your NetGear that points to the IP of Wi-Fi interface of your HD2. You may also need to adjust IP routing parameters (e.g. add static routes, enable NAT, etc...) on your HD2, depending on how your services provider configured the APN.
And this is where it becomes a bit complex. There are no tools readily available for WnMo that allow management of IP protocol. You'll need to change a few things in the registry and maybe even write a program to manage static routes on your HD2.
