i got usb wlan adapter. it's ip is 192.168.1.130.
the lan adapter in my pc has 192.168.1.84 ip.
all computers on my local wired network has 192.168.1.* addresses and 255.255.255.0 subnet.
i fixed the IP of SD sandisk wifi adapter on my mda compact to 192.168.1.131.
Usb adapter is in peer-to-peer (ad-hoc) mode and i normaly connect with ppc to it. i got 80-100% signal all the time.
the problem/question #1: why i cant ping from ppc to PC ? firewall turned off.
#2 - if i could ping it, would i be able to ping all the other ip's on my wired network?
#3 - if i could be able to ping all of those computers, how should i set-up a workgroup on ppc and be able to map network drives through wlan link?
#4 - if i would be able to map the drive over wifi link, would i be able to add mine 20.000 mp3s to the pocketmusic's playlist and play them wirelessly?
thanks in advance!
And when i ping from PPC - i see on pc that "received" packets are raising -
ie. now it shows 12 packets received, when i run ping on ppc to pc, the
number increases to 16 (4 pings!) but all are time-outed....
And if the IP on both sides are set to "automaticly", they got assigned
169.254.*.* IP's. Then the ping goes through correctly but i can't still
access the network. The network bridge between LAN and WLAN connection only
made things worser, making my internet connection unusuable (DSL through the
same LAN connection) so i deleted the bridge. Now - ping is going but i
still cant map my pc's drive.... what could be the problem...
Same problem
Dakky,
I have the exact same problem. I bought a Netgear WG111 Wireless USB dongle. I created an ad-hoc network, connected to it but can't connect to the internet or browse my shared. On my desktop the sent packet go up but not the recieved.
Are we both being stupid, can't you connect your PPC to your PC using an ad-hoc network? I have now tried to connect with two different desktops to my XDA and a friends XDA IIs running WM5 to my desktop but had no success. I can connect to an access point and browse file/internet no problem.
I have an XDA EXEC and run XP Pro on desktop.
I've got similar problem. I have Linksys Wireless-G usb network adapter, i assign same class IP adresses (192.168.2.1, 192.168.2.2, mask 255.255.255.0) the wifi connects in ad-hoc modebut how can sync over wifi ?, if I am able to sync over wify i will be able to use my pc's internet connection wich is a lot faster than any gprs/edge
I don't think you can network in this way - basically you have a bunch of clients but no 'server' I think you need a wireless hub (with Internet connection in there somewhere) in there somewhere.
If you do a search on microsoft web site ther is some info about using a PC as an internet share for other PCs but you have to use a very specific IP address rnge for this and set the share PC up in a certain way
Hello Everyone. i have a pc that is hooked up on a LAN that gets net access via VPN on a local host. My PPC (XDA2i) on 2003 se is connected to my pc via Bluetooth on a PAN. so what i need is for the PPC to be able to access the LAN so it can connect to the host computer via VPN for net access... i tried 2 different apoproaches.
#1 I bridged the 2 connections (PAN and LAN) under the same Subgroup as the host. eg : 192.168.0.xx , Host = 192.168.0.1 . problem is the pc is unable to ping the PPC and vice versa. so if they are unable to ping what more establish a VPN connection. strangely, the pc is able to access the LAN, but the ppc isn't.
#2 I tried using XP's ICS. I enabled all the forwarding settings and assigned the PAN a different subgroup IP (192.168.1.xx). VOILA !!! the ppc is able to ping the host (192.168.0.1) I'm assuming the pc is forwarding ping packets to the ppc. but the pc acting as a NAT doesnt help solve my problem. weirdly, the ppc is unable to establish a VPN connection.
the type of VPN is unsecure uncrypted PPTP.
thanks everyone in advance

Hi
Does anyone know how to do this?
I have tried with total commander and many others.
Has anyone got it working?
my purpose for it is streaming music from my pc and accessing documents and saved web pages etc.
P.S. I can connect to the internet over wifi, but not access any PC's on the network.
I am using the latest SE build R2
thanks in advance
its working just fine for me using total commander and gsplayer!
just using the //PC_NAME works perfectly in total commander. In fact, I`m using it right now!
hey i use the htc network plugin works just fine for me, i got a domain network with a win2k8 server and i m able to access all files on it streaming is also possible..
install and soft reset afterwards you got the network entry in settings/connections/NetworkPlugin where you can add computers which you can access afterwards with file explorer

Thank for this app.. works like a bomb!
nice to hear, that it works for you
Hi can you use this appplication to also access the internet via the pc's internet connection e.g. if pc is on a landline and xperia connects via wifi to the pc I want the xperia to be able to use the internet as well ..
do u know?
use a vpn connection to connect to remote network then the plugin should work with this connection and find the computers from the vpn network.. hope you understand what i mean
i am using bulletproof ftp and resco explorer.. resco explorer got possibility to add ftp connections.. so you have just to add port forward to your firewall and to connect to ftp.. if using a single server where all files are stored on it is a very nice alternative to share all things via ftp because you can access it from anywhere.. you need a dyndns hostname or something similar too, but i guess i dont have to say this
i use logmein and the cab works fine for me, i fix customers pc's from the x1 and they pay me for doin it via paypal
still no luck
ok
thank for the help so far
i am feeling really stupid.
i installed the network plugin. then reset and connected to my wifi network at home.
now I try add new or browse and it keeps saying map drive failed or no computer was found in the network.
Could it be my wireless network settings?
I am able to connect to the net
the Ip address is inline with that of my pcs and all the PCs can see each other.
I do not have a domian or VPN setup
Please help.
What am I doing wrong?
I have tried pinging my phone and it works, but if I try ping my Pc from my phone it doesnt work. I am using vxutil
I've been playing around and i noticed that I can ping my phone from my pc but i my phone cannot ping my pc ( doesnt find it). i am using vxutil
any firewall on the host pc? How do you try to connect? Through Hostname or with the ip,.. ? Never had such a problem but you can try to add the drives without browsing by just adding them with the path for example
//mynetworkpc(better you use the ip instead x.x.x.x)/sharedfolder
i think it should be a problem of your host pc i guess.. can you access it from other network computers? Try to ping it from another computer in your network, sounds like a firewall problem to me
Here is what I can do
1. Ping my computer and any other computer from any computer connected to both wired and wireless network
2. access the files on my computer from any other pc in the house
3. stream music to and from my pc to any pc in the house
4. ping my Phone from my pc
5. connect to the internet though the wireless network, using my phone.
What I cant do
1. ping my pc from my phone
2. connect to shared files on my pc from my phone
Let me know if there is something I am doing wrong or any settings to check or anything else I can do to get this working please
I found out some more info that might be useful
it has to do with IP addresses of the phone
Current IP
XPERIA
169.254.2.1
Adapters
NE20001 - NE2000 Compatible ethernet driver
IP Address : 0.0.0.0
TNETW12511 - IEEE 802.11b/g Compatible Wifi adapter
IP Address : 192.168.11.4
Subnet Mask : 255.0.0.0
Default Gateway :192.168.11.2
Primary DNS : 192.168.11.2
DNCP Server : 192.168.11.2
Now my pc's IP address is 192.168.11.9
My routers IP address is 192.168.11.2
Should I be changing the Current IP address?

I use Resco File Explorer2008. It sees my Vista x64 pc on my wireless net without a problem. I can map and explore any shared drives on it.
I also use a app called Iper. It sees all my net devices and pings them without a problem either??

You have logmein working from the X1? if so, how did you get this to work. This would be really useful for me
Ok I have installed IPer
I have noticed again the IP address for RNDISFN1 is 169.244.x.x and the Ip address for my network is 192.168.xx.x. could this be the problem and if so how do I change this IP address ( the phone)
I really want to get this working and all help will be greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!!
Hello!
I have connected phone to PC and set 'internet sharing' on the phone, to have internet access on the desktop. It works well.
Then I connected other PC to that PC, both through LAN cards and set up home network.
Then I wanted to set up ICS (internet connection sharing) on the host PC, to access internet also on the other PC.
Problem is, that ICS is by default using address 192.168.0.1, which you can't change in winXP. And also my phone is connected to the host PC with the same address, which if I change, I loose internet connection on host PC.
How can I change this address which phone uses to connect to PC?
semi-bump.
Current setup: cable modem w/ wireless beams connection to my PC via wireless LAN. Modem is 192.168.0.1 on LAN, I'm .9, static. I want to setup ICS from my PC to my mob by bluetooth, as the wireless connection in my room is awful so I have to have a USB wireless adapter snaking under the door & out into the hallway.
Problem: ICS setup wants to host the service on 192.168.0.1 but that's the router & can't be changed. Is there any other way to do this? Cheers anyone.
can i circumvent this by connecting to the pc using bluetooth via activesync? won't i still need to setup ICS in the bluetooth config, or does activesynch overrule it?
