Hi *.
Odd problem, disabling Internet connection [GPRS/HSDPA] doesn't work. I've tried with NoData, HD Tweak and even checked directly registry setting: HKLM/Comm/CommMgr/Providers/{7C....}/Connections/Internet/Enabled is 0. And still somehow Windows connects when some app requires. Any idea what's wrong? It used to work, stopped some time after flashing with newest Dutty's ROM [6.1 based].
p.s.
Settings >> Connections >> Connections >> Advanced >> Select Networks is set to "My ISP"
"
Settings >> Connections >> Connections >> Advanced >> Select Networks is set to "My ISP""
and if you change that programs should not be able to connect to gprs
Change to what? 'My ISP' is already selected. Other options: P4 Data, MMS Networks, P4 Internet [this one should not work], My Work Network.
if you change it to My Work Network
it will only be able to connect to the internet
when you got wifi or is connected to activesync
over usb or bluetooth
Still doesn't work (or works to be exact). Either with "My ISP" or "My Work Network" windows connects with HSDPA (simplest test Weather panel >> Update Now).
I even reload settings with Connections >> Connection Setup and disabled "Internet" once again, still works.
Any other idea why it doesn't respect Enabled = 0?
Not sure if you can do this with you're provider, but you could try to delete the username and password from your internet connection settings. Settings >> Connections >> Connections >> Manage existing connections>> Edit>> and click next until you come upon user name and password. My provider requires that or my data will not work.
or the apn
I knew something has to be wrong. There was another connection (WAP) which was used when I've disabled first one (GPRS).
Sorry for confusion

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.

Hi,
For some strange reason, I'm unable to connect to the Internet when I have my USB connected to my 8125 to a computer which has internet connection (the computer I'm using right now). It constantly tries to dial the GPRS.
It used to connect to the Internet and never dials to any GPRS. This started happening today. I haven't changed anything at all.
When I open PIE it will load the MSN page but still tries to dial. I try another URL (yahoo) and it will not connect. I believe its displaying the MSN homepage using the temporary files.
Please help!
Try a couple things...
On the PPC go to Start > Settings > Connections Tab > Network Cards > and make sure "The Internet" is chosen for "My network connects to:" and click "Ok"
Next, on your computer, open ActiveSync > File > Connection Settings > and make sure "The Internet" is chosen for "This computer is connected to:" and click "Ok"
(Even if those settings are correct already, still pull down the menus and choose them again, clicking ok afterwards, everyone knows windows likes to accidentally forget settings even when they are still correctly displayed) Reboot the computer and PPC, then try again
If all that fails, then on the PPC go to Start > Settings > Connections Tab > Connections > Advanced Tab > Select Networks > and click "Edit" for whichever connection you have chosen for "Programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using:" > on the modem tab make sure "auto pick" is selected > on the "proxy settings" tab make sure "this network connects to the internet" is checked > make sure "this network uses a proxy server..." is UNCHECKED > click "Ok" > click "Ok" > click "Ok"
That should do it for ya
OK.
When I'm at home, I use my Wifi AP to connect to the Internet and my home network. I have to set my settings to:
Settings --> Connections --> Connections --> Adcanced --> Select Networks --> My Work Network.
When I'm on the move and my HTC TyTn is connected to KPN UMTS I hve to manually set my settings to:
Settings --> Connections --> Connections --> Adcanced --> Select Networks --> KPN GPRS / UMTS.
Is there any chance that this can be set to any kind of automatic mode, a scripting tool on my todayscreen or other solution???
I am not familiar with an automatic way to switch networks, but here is what I do on my Jamin:
My GPRS settings are under My ISP (just tap 'add new connection in the main connections tab, note My ISP has to be selected for use in 'advanced' for this option to be available)
When I connect to my home WiFi (or any other WiFi) I select 'this network connects: to the internet'.
In advance->network selection both lists are on My ISP.
This way I never have to switch between networks and all apps (except push mail that insists on GPRS) use WiFi if available and GPRS if not.
Thx
Wow, thanks!!
4 months of trying, mindbreaking hours. While the solution is so simple!
IT WORKS!

I need to do what the opening post dictates also, but I dont quite have a grasp on the above.
Can anyone make it any clearer? Sorry
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.
I'm sorry to bring this up again folks, I have read and searched forum for similar threads but am still confused.
I find the WM6.1 network connections interface very confusing. Can anyone tell me step by step how to setup vodafone?
Should it be setup as part of "My Work Network" or as its own "Vodafone Live" ?
When I set it up, I still want my phone to use my WiFi connection at home as default, and only use vodafone live if I specifically tell it to. Is this possible ?
Under Netwotk Management
Surely "programs that auto connect to the internet" and "programs that auto connect to a private network" would be one and the same no ? What about when we use our private network to connect to the internet (via router etc) ??
as I say, I find the entire windows mobile networking system a mess, very confusing and have never gotten vodafone live working properly.
btw, my phone is HTC Touch HD
Many thanks for any desperately needed help
Update...
If I setup the phone to use just "My Work Network" under both "programs that auto connect to the internet" and under "programs that auto connect to a private network"....
and then manually setup vodafone under the "My Work Network" device as follows...(using my local vodafone settings)
1. add new modem connection
2. name it (vodafone etc)
3. select modem to cellular line (gprs, 3g)
4. enter apn "live.vodafone.com"
5. username and password - "vodafone"
6. under "My Work Network" setup proxy as 10.24.59.100
7. under advanced set socks to 10.24.59.100:1080
Then it works. I can disable wifi, enable data connection and browse the internet.
THE PROBLEM here, is that if I go into college, and use my phone over their wifi, the proxy server gets changed thus disabling vodafone all over again.
So, it works if you set it up manually under the "My Work Network" device. But I need it set it up as a seperate device so that the proxy doesnt get messed up. I have tried editing the auto created "vodafone live" device, it just wont work. I tried editing the "my isp" device but that has no proxy setting.
Can anyone please help me make any frickin sense of this. ?
