Is it possible to surf internet thru usb cable using activesync?
i do not have router at home..so i cant access wifi.
is it possible? can provide the steps by steps detail how to connect?
Yes it is. It happens automatic when you connect the device. If doesn't work automatic, you can set it in activeSync' s connection settings from "computer is connected to:" option dropdown list to Internet.

i have an i-mate Jasjar wm5, I am using USB activesync cable to connect my device to my desktop PC. I would like to access the internet using LAN-DSL in my office.
Any idea or suggestions on how to do it?
Suggestions, insights, or any kind of guidance is highly appreciated.
unless you have set it to block it
then your device connected to activesync will allways have the same
lan network access as the pc
you prob have to change connection in settings->connection->connection advantage and pick mynetwork rather then my isp

thanks for the quick reply. activesync (v4.5) is on the exceptions list of windows firewall, hence it is not blocked.
My Work Network connection settings (modem and VPN) is empty. do we have to input any settings on them (modem and/or VPN)? On the proxy settings - I checked the box for 'This network connects to the Internet', I did several tests on unchecking/checking the box on 'This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet' - tried both IP of my desktop PC (192.168.1.12) and default gateway (192.168.1.1) on ports 8080, 80. I noticed though - the box for 'This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet' - always goes unchecked everytime I go back to check the settings.
i did several test settings, but it doesn't worked either. always it says 'This page cannot be displayed, connection was lost check settings'
any idea on these? thanks for your time
guess you could try changing the dns to what the pc is using
and try with other applciations like the network tools ping
and messenger to see if it's a IE issue
I also want to connect to internet through activesync 4.5 usb
hi, i have the same problem, i want to connect to internet through activesync 4.5 and wm5 herms. i am not good a computer use so could you please guide me step by step. i can synchronize but can't use internet.
if its through the office network, you may need to play with some settings to "fool" the office network to let you out.
The way to check what im talking about is to download http://johnhaller.com/jh/mozilla/portable_firefox/ portable firefox, and see if it connects by default. In my office, i had to input the LAN proxy settings into firefox to make it work. If this is the same for you, then i guess you'll have to do the same on the PPC. If you do find that this is the problem, and you cannot connect with firefox, post back and ill see if i can help
Turn off "Advanced Features"

There's a setting in ActiveSync "Advanced" and uncheck the box. See if that helps. It apparently has helped others with USB connection issues.
rightclick on ActiveSync icon on systemtray --> connection settings... ---> config as my pic you can access internet thought your PC. If you still can't connect to internet please hardreset your PDA
Hi,
Anyone know how to specify that the trinity uses the activesync passthrough then wi-fi then lastly gprs/3g when it requires data?
Its proper annoying that it connects to gprs when plugged in and wi-fi is enabled!
Erm...shouldn't do, doesn't for me!
Thats nice for you, but really...I am not making this up!
Try this:
Open ActiveSync on you PC, Navigate to File > Connection Settings, un-tick 'Allow wireless connection on device when connected to the desktop'.
I also dont have this problem.
As a sanity check, have you selected "this computer is connected to: The Internet/Work Network" in the Connection settings of Windows Active Sync. Also, is your wifi adapter set up to connect to "the internet"?

yes - although I'm usind wmdc and yes...hmmm
I also use WMDC. Does your pda connect to gprs for any site at all, or just a particular one such as your service provider's homepage. I have mine set up to always use gprs to connect to the vodafone live website, otherwise it uses wifi/activesync as the default.
On your pda, under settings->connections->advanced->exceptions. do you have any url exceptions listed?
Also, under settings->connections->advanced->select networks, is your gprs connection under the "programs that auto. connect to the internet", or "programs that connect to a private network".
My gprs settings are under private network, and I have checked the box stating the private network connects to the internet under proxy settings.
where do your gprs settings reside?
HEY everyone....
i am TIERED of trying and searching can anyone tell me how to Connect my PPC to internet using PC...why...complicated....
but i need your help in case anybody knows....
i need steps to do so...(i was told i have to create a new workgroup onto my PC and BLA BLA BLA but i didnt know how to figure it out)
PLEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASE i need your help
if you mean using bluetooth or usb then when you are connected to activesync the pda use the network of the pc
well thank you "Rudegar"...
i am connected using USB to active sync...but it doesnt use the network of the PC...i have tried too many ways but i cant figure out what to do...
and i have choosen the option (connects to internet) from active sync and still i have a problem...
can you please help me out...
settings->connections->connections->advanced->select networks
there are some texts showing "programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using"
and a dropdownbox
select the dropdownbox item which is not called something like "my isp"
but pick the one thats called something like "my network"
then all programs trying to access the internet will be forced to use activesync as internet connection and if activesync is not connected they will fail!
if i am reading your post right you are trying to use ur ppc as a modem to connect to the internet?
If so, use these steps:
connect ppc to PC thru usb, let activesync do it's work
on PPC go to Start>Programs>Accessories and open the Internet Sharing program
After this is done, it should allow you top connect to the internet by using the PPC as a modem. It's a slow connection, but it works

Thank you so much i know im like a pain in the (you know ) but really really i appreciate your help
it's empty it just show
add network connection
add vpn connection
setup my proxy
i use bluetooth mind you if you use usb you have to
check Enable advanced network functionality
in usb to pc though
and your pc activesync should be set to not block it
and your firewall should alow it
usually you don't need to change anything in settings to get internet with usb, try hard reset your ppc and reconnect. Also, IP in your pc shouldn't be specified (keep it automatic)
finally i found the answer to my thread; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=374172
Hi
I'm using WM6.1 on my Dopod D600(HTC P3400), when I connect to my laptop, the IE can visit internet through my laptop, but opera and google map will try to connect by GPRS instead of active sync.
Could anyone tell me how to force program visit internet though my laptop?
Cheers
Anyone have any idea?
Cheers

Thank you for your reply, but I can't see any option relate to USB connection
the dropdownbox's should have items like
my isp or whatever your gprs connection is called on your device
my network or something like that as this too varies
is activesync network as in usb connection or bluetooth connection
and the likes
of cause it can only be used while the device is connected to activesync

Sorry for late response.
There are four settings:
ChinaMobile WAP Settings
ChinaMobile Internet Settings
My Work Network
MY ISP
which one should I choose?
Cheers
On the computer, go to Activesync 4.5->File->Connections Settings->UNCHECK "Allow wireless connections on device when connected to the desktop"

I checked the settings, and found it's always unchecked.
Anytime I connect to my home (or work laptop) via USB, the internet no longer works. At work, I can understand this because of the proxy server, etc. Is there any way to always connect via my 3G connection and when connected via USB not to change the connection from 3G?
It's weird cos i have the same problem, but not all the time. When I flash my Miri rom's some seem to work over 3G when connect via USB, my latest one doesn't.
Now i dont sync my device to the PC anyway, so i use the power adapter and bluetooth, thus not having the issue. although I have never bothered to try and figure it out.
to force the data connection, try this
settings menu all settings connections connections - advanced tab,select network, and set the top drop down to the name of your data connection.
(if it already is, then.... ummm I dunno)
sorry but this did not work.
In activesync/WMDC, go to connection settings, and check "allow internet connections while connected" or something like this.
By default it cuts the other connections as the phone will get the net through activesync when it's connected.

this also did not work
On your phone:
Start > Tools > QuickGPS
Menu > Options
Turn off '"Download QuickGPS when connected to PC via ActiveSync".

this worked for me at home, but did not work for me at work (perhaps having something to do with the work proxy?) any ideas...?
