Wi-Fi - Proxy Exception List - Networking

How is it possible to add an exception in the proxy list.
For example in Windows XP, you go to:
Start -> Control Panel -> Internet Options -> Connections Tab -> LAN Setting -> Advanced, and you get whats attached.
How do you add this address into an exception on Windows Mobile 6.1 (I'm using a Sony Xperia X1 with IT-Touch v7.1).
Many thanks..

Go to Settings, Connections, Advanced and open the Exceptions list. You can then enter URLs that you don't want to go via a proxy for. This works in conjunction with your current Data Connection or WiFi. The logic seems to be - If you have a WiFi connection active and it is set to 'Connects to: Work' then the URLs will be connected to directly over that WiFi connection. If the WiFi is set to 'Connects to: The Internet' then a VPN connection to your Work will be attempted over the WiFi (assuming you have one defined?). If you have a HSDP/3G/GPRS connection active then a VPN connection will also be attempted but over the active HSDP/3G/GPRS.
The URL list doesn't just work for HTML pages via IE, if any application attempts to locate a host that is in the URL list it follows the same logic as above - unless it has it's own hook-ins to the OS and forces a connection itself.
I have only one entry in my URL list and that is the DNS domain name of my Work network - '*.work.domain/'. This seems to work well for me.
That's my experience of it anyway.

How to set up proxy for WI-FI connection?

I need to set up proxy for wi-fi connection, however in WM5 I can find proxy setup only for modem connection... how and where could I set up a proxy?
Do you mean an internet proxy? If so, then go to
Settings > Connections (tab) > Connections > Advanced (tab) > Select Networks
Choose your connection method here - ie, Orange World or other
Then click "Edit.." and select the "Proxy Settings" tab.
From here you can specify that the connection will be used to connect to the internet (via any method - be it GPRS, LAN or Wireless) and you can check the box and specify a Proxy Server IP address.
When I connect to my work machine via active sync, it automagically picks up my work's proxy server IP and changes this configuration for me.
I hope I didnt miss the point here.. Good luck

Yes, it picks it up for me as well (via USB activesync). However the following happens when I go wireless - all application which don't require proxy (mail, skype) work, except for HTTP. Of course I listed all protocols in the advanced proxy configuration...
Well I dont have that problem im afraid terramax - when I move onto the wireless I always ensure the 'use proxy' checkbox is unticked before i turn on the wireless.
Also if im having trouble starting IE first seems to help (altho this seems like bull****!) :?
I have similar issue to terramax. Skype works, internal sites with "proxy exclusion" are fine but IE mobile on my Treo Pro can't negotiate the proxy server at work (authentication dialogue doesn't even pop up). What really does my head in though is we have some HP handhelds running WM6 and they handle the proxy authentication fine.

IPsec VPN on Smartphone (Bluefire VPN)

I have a HTC S710, and does anyone know how I can use IPsec VPN? I've got Bluefire VPN wich supports it, but when I try to connect it says
"The Connection Settings do not allow a VPN connection to be established. The device may be configured to use the same network for both The Internet and Work. Please verify the Connection Settings and try again (-71)"
Ive looked all over for this sort of settings, but havent been able to find any. Anyone to help?
under wm6, have a look at settings - connections - connections - advanced - select networks
the settings for internet and private network must be different
for internet, i have "my isp", for private network "my work network"
with these settings, bluefire works in my university vpn network
under wm6, have a look at settings - connections - connections.
Here's just an empty list, I can't seem to find the "advanced" option.
I have deleted my GPRS account, because it kept onlining, and I want to use VPN over Wifi.
In advance, thanks
settings - connections - connections
there should be two headlines, "my ISP" and "my work connection", these are built in
"advanced" is a tab at the bottom of the page

Kaiser: How to set up proxy server settings over wi-fi?

So on desktop computers this is easy, just open up browser set up your proxy servers and done.
The only settings I can see that set up proxies on the kaiser are for GRPS/Dial-up/3G. But that's already set by my cell provider and it doesn't require a proxy (to my knowledge)
But I'd like to be able to access my home proxy when I'm using wi-fi (at home or away from home) I just can't find a way to set it in the system.
If anyone knows please let me know.
Thanks
i wish to know the answer as well
In Settings, Connections you can set up two Automatic connections 'Internet' & 'Private'. Typically these are 'My ISP' and 'My Work Network'. In the Private network settings you can specify your proxy. You then need to edit your WiFi settings for your Home WiFi - change the 'Connects to:' to 'Work' (as opposed to The Internet). When you connect to your home WiFi it should use the proxy specified.
Be careful with ActiveSync or Sync Centre as this can change these settings each time your device connects to your PC (change the connection settings in ActiveSync/Sync Centre on the PC so that the option 'This computer is connected to:' is NOT set to 'Automatic'.
Windows Mobile also supports Proxy Auto Detection as well. If this is the same as Windows proxy auto detection then it relies on either DHCP being configured to send Option 252 with the URL of the Proxy script and/or DNS with a host record or alias for the WPAD host in the devices domain - i.e. wpad.network.com.

Set up proxy & port settings for WLAN! H E L P

Hello! I have a problem with WLAN. I couldn't find where to set up my proxy and port settings for WLAN. If I go to the start > settings > conections I can't set up a wireless network, just 3g, bluetooth etc. (but there are settings for proxy), but if I go to start > settings > network cards and then tap Add new there are just options that i need exept those two. Help me please!
P.S. I have WM5 and Qtek 9000 (HTC Unversal)
OK, after about 10 minute trying, I finally get it done.
When you select one AP name in Wi-Fi setting,it will ask which profile will the connection connects to.( I use Chinese version, I guess it will be "Default Internet" and "Default Company" ).The two connection is the two you select in setting->connection->connection->advance tab, the upper is "Internet" the lower is "Company", and you can make a new profile here using the "New" button,here you will find proxy setting and enter some proxy , because you are just using this profile in wi-fi ,so the "moderm" can be left blank.
When you have done the setting, you can turn on Wi-Fi, browse some web site, in taskMgr(additional application I installed) you will find the ppc has establish a tcp connection to the proxy server you set up.

Proxy settings

I am using a WM6.1 and I cant connect on the wireless connection in my university. The reason for that is inorder to connect on that university network, I need to make the WM to autodetect the proxy settings. Or atleast manually write them.
Excuse my lack of information on the matter, but inorder to log on the network using my laptop for example, I had to check the autodetect proxy settings in my browser, and then it asked me for a password and a user name every time I try to surf the net. How to do that using my PPC?
go inte settings > connections tab > connections then under my work network press the set up my proxy server link and from there you should be able to enter all the details you need similarly to your uni's settings.
