into teeny weeny little pieces.
I feel so much better now!!
Anyways...I have a wireless home network up and running and would like to connet the xda to it.
I can connect to the router no probs but IE cant connect to the web. it says "the page you are looking for cannot be found".
Any ideas why I can connect to the router but not to the web?
Cheers folks - thanks
I know how you feel. There are a couple things you have to do.
First check that you have selected to connect via "work".
Then ensure that the IP address shown is in the range of 192.168.0.X
had no problems with my wifi on my home network, as ale210p said, I think it's with the way your connect via "work" or "ISP" is configured
hiya folks
thanks for coming to my rescue..hopefully i can get this thing on the road.
- in connections - advanced - select networks. both selections are set to "my work network"
- in configure network adapters - network adapters. the "my network connects me to" dropdown is selected to work.
- where can i check my ip address on the device?
Alhtough I am connected to my wireless network as that what the wireless LAN manager says?
any ideas guys?
many thanks
Is your internet provider checking the MAC address? my provider checks for the MAC address and hence I had to register my MAC address first with the provider.
I'm pretty sure my ISP isnt checking my MAC address as my PC and other computer on the network work fine with regards to internet access and I never gave the MAC addresses to the ISP.
However, my modem router does have mac filtering enabled. I have copied the MAC address of the xda to the allowed list. However I've also tried to turn this filter off and the result was the same....I still could connect to my home wireless network but had the same error message when trying to surf through pocket IE.
Any other ideas on why I can connect to the network but IE wont let me surf?
thanks again
I'm having exactly the same problem as Richard. What I don't understand is, I can drive around and find free residential wireless hotspots and surf the net , but I can't do it on my own WLAN!
IP info OK?
These symptoms could indicate that vital IP info is missing on your XDA.
Does your XDA get an IP address + gateway address + DNS server address from the router's DHCP server? Use vxIPConfig to determine this http://www.cam.com/windowsce.html
I know for a fact that many times (not always) my QTEK 9090 does NOT get the required IP info from my SMC Barricade 2804WBR b/g wireless router, so I started using fixed addresses on my QTEK.
If I use DHCP, many times I can connect to the router but am unable to access the internet... Because the QTEK has not received an IP address/gateway address/DNS server address in those cases. Fixed addresses always work.
whoa
thanks for the advice. i installed the app. rubbed the sticks together and there were sparks i tell you!!! but what does it all mean?
the ip address is 169.254.84.245
subnet mask 255.255.0.0
dhcp server 255.255.255.255
im no tekkie so am not sure what the above means? does it provide any clues?
thanks for the advice so far
just an update
i manually inputted the ip address assigned to my xda by the router as i have dhcp disabled on the router.
nonetheless it sill doesnt let me connect to the net but i can connect to the wlan?

Fixed IP address is good, but have you also put in the gateway address and DNS server address? Normally the gateway address + DNS server address = router address.
If your routers IP address would be 192.168.1.1 (quite common address), then your IP address could be 192.168.1.2, gateway address would be 192.168.1.1 and DNS server (name server) address also 192.168.1.1.
BTW; this:
the ip address is 169.254.84.245
subnet mask 255.255.0.0
dhcp server 255.255.255.255 <========= !!!!
means that DHCP didn't work!
I suppose that when you state "connect to the wlan" you mean that you can 'see' machines on your local network? Or what? That would make sense because you wouldn't need a gateway address and DNS server address for that normally (broadcasts).
siliconaddict....you're a genius!
finally it works, it works i say.
fantastic.
thanks to all for the advice and feedback - much appreciated.
can i stoke the fire and ask how i can sync via wifi as well?
never done it myself, but here is a guide
I have never synced over WiFi myself, but here are some guides:
http://theillustratednetwork.mvps.org/WM2003/ActiveSync/WM2003ActiveSyncConfiguration.html
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=132820
Please note that the next version of Activesync, version 4, doesn't do syncing over Wifi anymore...
Good luck!
Sorry to be a complete noob, but:
1. How do I find out the IP Address of the XDA (Is it in Wireless LAN Manager, under "current config" and "IP:"?)
2. My Netgear USB WLAN is showing an IP of "0.0.0.0" (on command prompt >> ipconfig) How do I change this?
Thanks
Q & A
A 1: On your PDA use Use vxIPConfig for this http://www.cam.com/windowsce.html. Unfortunately the OS doesn't have a standard utility for it, like 'ipconfig'.
A 2: Does your router hand out IP addresses at all? Or: is DHCP enabled on your router? If true, do you have the correct drivers loaded for that USB NIC? In Device Manager how does it look? Yellow exclamation mark? Can you post the output of 'ipconfig /all'.

When I installed it first it worked for a view days, but stopped working again.
I tried a factory reset also and reconfigured the InstantMail service

So far everything looks fine but when I try to send emails messages are marked with a red "x" next to the message and I dont receive any emails.
Every help is very much appreciated
Kind regards

Sounds like something on the BES or BIS is preventing you from sending BB emails. I would make sure nothing changed on your account. You obviously will need the BB Plan and registered on the BES/BIS server.
Hi.
I've just bought a HTC Touch, and Im trying to setup a WiFi spot with my WiFi dongle from my PSP. It's a 802.11g USB adapter. I've tryed numorus combinations, but my smartphone cant connect to the access point.
My network:
[internet (one IP)] -> Router (IP:192.168.2.1):
Rounter connection #1: My PS3 (IP:192.168.2.200)
Rounter connection #2: PC (IP:192.168.2.100):
- WiFi dongle connected to PC (IP: 192.168.2.150)
When I leave the IP settings to dynamic I get a network error, so I try to define IPs in the TCP/IP Protocol of the WiFi dongle:
IP address: 192.168.2.150
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.2.1
Preferred DNS Server: 192.168.2.1
Alternate DNS server: blank
I've also tryed the DNS and Default gateway to my PC (192.167.2.100), but my Touch couldn't connect to the spot, although my PC recognizes my phone MAC address. I don't have any firewalls, antiviruses etc.
Any ideas?
Has anyone managed to get their HTC S710 to work as a modem for a TomTom 930 Go via Bluetooth? I've installed DUN on my device (which was removed in WM6) and now the TomTom recognises my phone as a modem. However, the following configuration doesn't seem to work with the HTC, although it does on other phones.
Access point name: btmobile.bt.com
User name: bt
Password: [none] or bt
IP address: 212.183.137.12
DNS Server: Automatic
Dial: *99#
Login script: at+cgdcont=1,"IP","btmobile.bt.com"

Plz tell me the solution . How to fix this.
I think its a computer problem!
Check ur antivirus...
Web sheild or firewall on windows...
I had encounterd once ...limited access to wifi network....
Took off the antivirus for a while n it was working fine then!
Try it i don't know if it's a perfect solution or not but this might work...
Same thing happens with me when I use Droidwall on my mobile. So I deactivated/disabled that & then it works fine.
