Broadband on XdaII..

Hello evryone newbie here i want 2 know if it is possible to connect the xda to the computer to use broadband rather than using my 02 contract? help would be great. Keep instructions simple if possible as i am new to this.

Connect via docking cradle and it connects to broadband byitself.
If you have BLUETOOTH on your pc - it should connect wirelessly ok via this too.
Do you have bluetooth on pc?

i dont have bluetooth on pc but how do i select to use broadband as apposed to selecting just normal gprs.
Thanks for your quick reply

Give over
Hold on a second boy....I did the honorable thing that all newbies should do and i used that little button called "search" in which i searched for all things realted to broadband and xda2. Nothing helped..slightly too complex for a "Newbie". So what was i to do?, had i known it was a crime i wouldnt have posted a straight forward question in which i greatfully recieved a straight forward answer. What however was pointless was your post which is:
1. A pain in the ass.
2. Cocky and not relevant.
3. An indication that you my son have far too much time on your hands to go around hassling newcomers (who YOU once were!!!) who just want a little bit of help with thier brand new xda 2 and dont want to hoke throu thousands of posts in the off chance that i may find it intime for the xdaIII.
Amen
P.S. Whilst searching i found a topic entitled: How to post a message in a forum, without double posting?......check it out :!:

Nice one matey, there's nothing like slapping down cocky buggers when they need it, and I see from his previous responses that he does! If you can't help, keep it shut! The search option rarely helps, it just brings up too many random finds, it's quicker to 'rely on the kindness of strangers' as the lady said. The bluetooth option works well, when you get the right product, I struggled for months with a bloody belkin card then went mad and blew another £25 on a usb dongle from USBtech.co.uk, worked like a charm right out of the box. Just sync via bluetooth from the options menu on the xda. I can't see much point surfing with the bugger in the cradle though, but I think you just tick 'Allow network and Remote Access Service in Connection Settings in Activesync on the PC, I could be wrong but I'm sure someone will tell me.
Cheers

Re: Give over
Hey, I'm not being cocky. I'm no expert either, but I managed to find out how to do it without asking, so I'm sure you can too.
For starters, how about these three topics for connecting to the Internet through your USB cradle? Took me about 30 seconds to find them.

There are even more topics about Bluetooth connections and Internet access. If you search other websites too you'll find loads of info.

Fair point. Guess that's what comes from posting using the XDA2...
And Bully: Your post offered nothing more useful to d4vel than mine did, except maybe some moral support of my imagined cockiness, so I'd suggest you follow your own advice: if you can't help, keep it shut.

You win cocky-boy xx

Sorted
Now isn't the forum a better place now that we have our fued worked out. . Sublimatica thanks for your help and Bully thanks for your support. Just to let ya's know i have sorted out browsing with the cradle and got bluetooth sync working too.

Turn off Edge, force GPRS

Hi!
Is it any software, hacks or possible to make a program where user can force the device to use GPRS instead of EDGE on Windows Mobile ?

i think Communication Manager Pro can do that...

No it can't - only GSM/GPRS/EDGE vs UMTS/3G (I think)

Any reason you would want to do this?

Hi Knocksock!
Did you find a way to handle this?

A person is using a phone and software (well, it could be just a web-page) which connects to internet. He says GPRS is faster than EDGE due to bad signals when EDGE is used. Thats what they say, so I thought I should help out on this

No, I haven't Any ideas ?

Not really, I´ve been looking for it quite a while but I´m sure there must be a registry entry that links to the EDGE interface. My problem is that the device iPaq 6915 stopps data transfer when connected to EDGE.

T-Mobile US HD2 does not have Wifi Router????

Hello all, I have been in the Blackberry world for a few years so I am a little out of touch on WM. I have spent about an hour with the HD2 and I am sold. One thing I noticed is the lack of Wifi Router. I know the European version has it and I would like to know if it is something easily ported to the US version? Thanks for any input and if this is a stupid question I am sorry, just haven't been on the WM scene for a while.
P.S. I know I could use WMWifirouter but I would like to try the HTC app (also help that its free).

I suppose it depends if there is a Sim free version made by HTC.
The version we have in europe is a different model.
If there is a sim free version made, there is nothing to stop you from flashing that ROM to a T-Mobile branded device (in theory).
That should give you all the functions HTC put in.

the o2 uk version doesnt have it either. I shoudnt worry, its readily available.

Sorry, I have searched the forums but could not find it. Could you please give a link to where you can download a cab to enable the wifi router function?

Wifi Router is part of a pack available at the above link.

I installed it on my TMOUS HD2 and it won't connect with my laptop I verified the wireless settings match but my laptop keeps saying to check the router...
i dunno, won't work for me...

make sure laptop is seeing it as an ad hoc connection, not infrastructure.

Is that a joke? What adhoc? It wouldn't work for me either (LEO). I can not see it from my laptop, no DHCP or static IP with the router SSID forced either.
Nevermind restart fixed all problems and that's really ad hoc!

Hey I have what's called a htc wifi router. Do a search for that. I'm pretty sure I have picked up the .cab from this site. This program works great tho.

im useing the router to send this! thank you much!

[Q] Other way for an ad hoc connection on HC 3.2?

Hi all,
is there any solution for a non-rootet Iconia A500 to get an ad-hoc connection to my Nokia N8. Unfortunaly I made an update to the new HC 3.2 and lost the possibility to tether via my phone. That`s for me the only missing thing at the new ROM and i don`t want to flash my tab for this.
Thank you for your help!

This would be grand, ad-hoc is one of the few reason I have my tab rooted, and I'm perfectly fine with what stock HC has to offer. If only it would support ad-hoc from the box... (or better yet, support root from the box...)

I have not tried this.
There.is a new PDA.net on the market I think it might help you if yountry post your results here please.

Hi Erica_Renee,
thanks for answering my question. The PDA.net seems very interesting but unfortunatly i own a nokia n8 with symbian os so it will not work. But you idea
will be helpful for other user using a mobile device with a other os.

I did post this on the other thread you posted Erica Renee but I will say it again I can confirm the PDA net tablet version does work. I am on it now. My droid charge is rooted 2.3.4 and my tab is stock hc 3.2. I updated it yesterday when I got it out of the box. Took like 2 or 3 updates. But I am in Montgomery Alabama to. I am a trucker, in 4g on my tab right now. Just had to configure proxy settings, pair Bluetooth n away I go, woot

Question #1: Maybe the problem isn't the phone but the router. Have you tried a different phone with that router? Or your HD2 somewhere else? And no, radio shouldn't affect your WiFi *that much*. Also, could you please elaborate more? What do you mean by "not working"? Does it just disconnects, does it stay on "scanning", doesn't it assign you an IP address? What exactly is the problem?
Question #2: All JB ROMs are good.

Can you please answer the rest of the questions?
Is it a problem with only this wifi connection or with all connections?
Have you tried another device?
You can try setting Google DNS servers. Also, if you have security on your Wifi, try changing its type.

If it occurs on many ROMs, its probably something inside the hardware (just guessing).
Try asking at local GSM service if You have any nearby

It's either the digitizer or the end button. Try to pull the end button after pressing and see if the problem is still there.
