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...

Hi, iam able to connect to a WLAN router. That is no problem, but if the access data to the DSL Provider are not stored in the Router itself i have to setup a connection to this provider via the PPC. Does anybody know, what to do in this case?
I have never seen a WLAN router, that can't dial in.
Actually that would make no sense, not only since in Germany you can establish only one PPPoE connection per DSL account, so you could be online with a single device only.
Are you sure, that you have a router or is it a Access Point only?
Anyway I doubt there is any driver for PPC enabling PPPoE.
hi, im not able to connect to the net with my wizard.
i dont have a wireless router so am connecting directly to my laptop, the ad hoc connection i have made works fine for file tranfers, but not for activesync or connecting to the web in either PIE or minimo.
i know activesync isnt possible but surely i should be able to use the broaband from my laptop?
any pointers would be greatly appreciated. software? settings?
its a t-mobile uk vario with qtek test rom.
also anyone know of a remote control utility, i use logmein but would like something a little more menu/macro based for control of media.
cheers

Try turning on Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) on your laptop; that'll make your laptop act a bit more like a router, providing NAT services to the Wizard.
yeah i've tried that, and i've just tried bridging connections (dont really know much about that) but that hasnt worked either.

My configuration
Me too, I use ADHOC connection for my WLAN.
PC configuration:
ADSL connection shared
Adress IP:192.168.1.1 Mask:255.255.255.0
PocketPC configuration:
Adress IP:192.168.1.55 Mask:255.255.255.0 Gateway:192.168.1.1
DNS:80.10.246.2 for Wanadoo
Your problem is certainly the DNS.
You can put 192.168.1.1 too.
so it is possible? cool!.......but im still having problems.
i cant figure out how to enter these settings, not to sure where to put them,
iv tried puttin the DNS in the -> connections -> vpn
and -> network cards -> networks adapters -> SDIO WLAN Wireless Adapter
sorry to be a pain, but could you point me to where to get each address and where to put them?
also is there anything particular you did to set up the adhoc network? i just used the Windows XP wizard and then ticket the AdHoc option after.
my laptop is conected to the router and the router is connected to aol adsl.
the ip address of my laptop is showing as a simple 10.0.0. number on the LAN but "Autoconfiguration IP Address. . . : 169.254.235.147" for the WLAN
none of my setup has a static ip address, could this be causing the problems?
thanks
kevo
It's more hazardous without static adress but it's can work.
My PC has directly access to the Internet with a ADSL modem.
It's here (network cards -> networks adapters -> SDIO WLAN Wireless Adapter )
Apparently, it's ok for your PC and the Ad-Hoc mode.
Maybe, you should have your adress IP WLAN on the same network adress of your router.
I GOT IT WORKING!!!
I started again from scratch.
set a new WLAN. added new setup to the vario, added the DNS etc to the vario.
the problem i was having was the way i was sharing the internet connection, i was trying to shared the internet from the wireless to the lan rather than the internet from the lan to the wireless (if that makes sense to anyone!!!). i also ticked all the connection sharing services to allow them, just need to go through them and see which i dont need now.
thanks for the help guys

(its showing my transfer rate as 11Mbps, although i think iv done the G tweak and my laptop says its got a G card. what speeds should i be getting?)
Hi,
I don't think this is currently possible but I do not see any reason why? Does anyone know if there is a 3rd party app to provide this?
Thanks,
Phillip
Possible ! (Well somewhat)
This is very much possible. I got it working as follows :
(1) Create a WiFi connection on Pocket Pc with ad-hoc feature and Open Security, make sure you select "Work" as the connection.
(2) Give the WiFi adapter on Pocket PC an internal address similar to 192.168.0.2 (255.255.255.0)
(3) On your PC/Laptop set WiFi adapter IP to 192.168.0.1 (255.255.255.0)
(4) You need a program like Pocket PC Proxy to be installed on the Pocket PC.
(5) Enable proxy settings on Laptop as 192.168.0.2:80 (or the port set on the proxy prog on ppc)
(6) Enable WiFi on ppc
And Voila ! You can browse internet using the connection on your ppc.
Hi,
Thanks, I will give this a try. However, I can't seem to find this piece of software (Pocket PC Proxy). Can you point me in the right direction?
Thanks
Here you go...
Thanks for the download, I'm using an HTC Touch (Elf) with WM6. I can't seem to figure out how to create an ad-hoc wifi connection?
(Sorry to be a pain but i think that this will benefit others too!)
Ahaa, I managed to figure out how to create an adhoc network on the Pocket PC, I assigned it the correct IP (as above) and basically followed the instructions.
I'm actually trying to get my iPod Touch to connect to the net via the HTC Touch.
I iPod sees the wifi connection and connects perfectly, I can even assign the ip and subnet mask. However, I simply can not connect to the internet either with or without the proxy. Any suggestions on what I am missing?
THanks
What kind of an internet connection do you have on the ppc ?
- GPRS/EDGE ? Is it always connected/on ?
Got it working, you can ignore the following
Thanks!

Hi, here is everything I have done:
Connections, Internet
Modem: T-Mobile Internet, GPRS (UK, no edge)
Proxy Settings: This network connects to the internet
This network uses a proxy server to conncet to the internet
149.254.291.132
(This was all set by the phone when I switched it on)
My Work Connection:
Nothing set up here
WIFI
Add New...
Network Name: test
Connects to: Work
This is a device-to-device (ad-hoc) connection
Authentication: Open
Data Encryption: Disabled
This seems to create an ad-hoc connection and sits there with 'Connecting' until another device connects to it.
Network Adapters
My network card connects to: Work
IEEE 802.11b/g Compatible WIFI....
Edit:
Use specific IP address:
192.168.0.2
255.255.255.0
(Everything else blank)
Wireless LAN
SSID: test
Mode: 802.11 Ad hoc
Channel: 11
When I connect two devices together the IP shown under advanced seems to read 192.168.0.21 (I think this should end .2 so not sure why it isn't)
If I connect my laptop I can 'ping' 192.168.0.2 and that works but both my laptop and ipod touch do not seem to be able to connect to the internet.
On the ipod touch I simply get 'Server not found' or something similar.
(I have remembered to run PocketPCProxy)
Yes, the GPRS is connected whenever I run PocketPCProxy.
I would really appreciate any help you can give, I really like using the browser on my ipod Touch but don't really want to go the whole hog and buy an iPhone because it is so tied down and restricted.
Thanks,
Phillip
I don't know what I have done but suddenly it works, now it comes up and shows the correct ip on my pocket pc.
Anyway, thanks for your help!
Hi everyone,
I have been trying to ad-hoc connect my PC (Lenovo X60s with XPSP2) to HTC Touch via WiFi to be able to share files and stream music.
It did connect and pinged ok, however the two just refuse to see one another on their networks.
Does anyone have any successful experience trying for the same?
Regards,
Madana
I tried this between my TyTN and TyTN II, the latter being the gateway, but the TyTN insists on still using GPRS for its internet instead of the wifi. Very annoying, and it's runing WM5 so (i dont think) you can't turn of the GPRS like you can with WM6.
Does anyone know how to make it use wifi, and wifi only for internet?
Thanks,
Sebastian
i have installed pocket pc proxy after a file called ......ppc3.arm.cab (i don't remember how it begins) but it doesn't work... any idea?
same here the pocket pc proxy when i run shows a fatal error in running it.

Hi ppl!
I have problem with connecting to the internet with my i900. I'm pretty new to WM so I'm pretty confused about lacking of standard options that I'm used on XP...
But let me explain whats the problem:
I have adsl router and need to dial pppoe connection to get out to the net. My ISP has locked routers default capabilities, which had setting up pppoe connection in the router so every thing that connets to the router could have easy exit to the internet (yeah, stupid ISP...).
So I've searched for the pppoe on the WM and found on this forum (i cant post the link?) app that can make pppoe connection on wm. Problem is that it doesn't work on my phone and feedback on it is pretty low.
So I've came up with another solution which needs a gateway function on my WM: I can dial a pppoe connection on my PC, share it, and then use my PC as a gateway to the internet by setting my PC's IP as a gateway on my WM phone. My PC is connected to the router by wire and hasn't got wireless adapter on it. Only thing wireless is a router... and a phone
I have found gateway option: (settings->wifi->network adapters->SyChip Jaguar->Use specific IP adress
BUT it doesn't work. I cant connect to the internet!
because I'm new to all this, is there something I'm missing?
I can ping my phones IP from my PC and my PC's IP with vxUtil and I've disabled firewall on my PC. In opera I've tryed all of connection tipes but I get "network problem". Also, I've configured my wireless conenctios as "my work network" and checked box under "This network connects to the internet"
Help?
PS
cracking a IPS's router isn't the option
i bought a new router but i am not able to connect through it
i have a PPPoE connection ISP has provided me with the user name & password i have entered the same in the router settings page but cant connect, get the same error on the mobile as well.
i have attached images of the error as well as how i connect to my internet incase u need to see.
i can connect without the router to internet with the same username and password but when i connect through router i get error Your PPPoE or PPTP authentification failed
Anyone know whats wrong ?
come on no one ??
ignore the top posts
i get my isp provides me with connection from a router which connects through a switch and the to me now i have bought router so that i can access internet on my mobile through wifi how do i configure my router to do that ?
basically you dont know how to setup a home network,
did the router came with the provider or did u use a third-party router?
if so you need to setup your 3rd party router,
call the provider so they can provide the protocol encapsulation in which you will need to setup your router
