When I plug my JasJar into my PC, I get a message "Pocket PC Networking: Unable to obtain a server-assigned IP address. Try again later or enter an IP address in network settings"
Please could someone with a JasJar go to Settings>ConnectionsNetwork Cards and tell me if every adaptor is set to "Use server assigned IP address" EXCEPT "Remote-NDIS Host" which is set to server assigned, but has an IP address in the lower box.
If yours is any different, please tell me what's different so I can fix mine up.
Everything set to be Obtain Automatically only... I changed only DNS entry for WLan NE2000 card.. rest all left as automatically updatin...
thanks dude!
I posted this question in the Networking Forum but got no replies. But here is my problem:
I messed around with the Network adapters settings, while trying to get WiFi to work properly.
Now everytime I connect to ActiveSync via USB, I get the error message, "Unable to obtain Server Assigned IP address". I am sure this is because I set one of the adapters to "Automatic IP", but I don't know which one. Moreso, my Wizard does not access the internet properly when connected via USB.
Could someone please tell me which adapter I wronged, and what setting its supposed to be?
i get this error message randomly. jus wen i wake it up the pop up will be there, i thaught it was jus a gprs error or something.
Same here :?
i´ve been getting the same message each time i plug my phone in to sync with my pc.
But now i put a IP adress in with my Wireless networkcard settings on the phone and the last time i synced the message didn´t show up anymore. Try that maybe it´ll help you too.
edit:
ok sorry, it didn´t work. Just got the same message when i synced the phone on my home pc.

Hi, make this:
Start > settings > connections > Network cards > Remote-NDIS Host > Click Use specific IP address
Enter 169.254.2.1 for IP address
Enter 255.255.0.0 for subnet
Enter 169.254.2.2
It functions on my Wizard...

My Wizard loves to give me this error message at random too. I'm curious as to exactly where it's trying to get a server assigned IP address from, and why.

Thanx Viking. Someone had replied my post in the Networking Forum with the same IPs as yours.
Thanx again
i would check you firewall aswell, cus that would block it out if it is not setup right. My does this everytime i get a update for the firewall!!!

Enjoy I had the same problem and found this solution in another discussion...
I found that this problem appears when you make ANY configuration changes in "Network Card"((
Hi, all,
I'm having the same problem with a Universal. Would this "fix" work also on my ppc?
Thanks

Yes, it should... It's a WM problem, not a problem of concrete machine.
tried this fix but it still does it.
Anyone got any other suggestions?
I did the same as you, messing around with settings.....
Anyway I think this is the procedure I did to screw it up.
Click Start, Settings, Connections, Network Cards, Network Adapters.
Then select Remote-NDIS host. The radio button to 'Use specific IP address' is selected but no IP address is entered. You can't exit this screen without either adding an IP address or selecting the 'Use server-assigned IP address' radio button'. If you select 'Use server-assigned IP address' the problem appears thereafter.
To fix it (or at least restore the defaults) you need to edit the registry:
HKLM\Comm\RNDISFN1\Parms\TcpIp\
Change the value of 'EnableDHCP' from 1 to 0.
That fixed it for me.

Hi,
Can any body help me in defining gateway address on my imate jasjam. I want to browse internet on my device and without defining gateway address, i am unable to do so.
I've used "wifi profiles" software and defined manual ip, gateway and dns but it is not retreiving gateway settings. At my workplace, there is a dhcp server which is automatically assigning an ip address to my device.
Regards,

Hey guys, does anyone know how to use ip proxy address for wifi connections in xperia arc??? mine does not have the option to enter the proxy address.. (in samsung galaxy there is an option to)
Any softwares to do so?????
Here is a simple guide to share you PC or Laptop internet connection with your phone through wifi.
Download and install connectify on your PC or Laptop. Do a google search, you'll find Connectify-Lite for free.
Fill in the settings panel with your prefered WiFi name, password and internet connection to share.
Click start button to start sharing
On your Wireless Connection Status, click Details to get the network connection information, note the IPV4 Address
Now on your Android Device
Go to Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Wi-Fi Settings
Open Advance settings menu
Tick the Use static IP option
Enter your desired IP address (ex: 123.456.7.8) into Ip Address field
Enter your IPV4 Address (ex. 192.168.178.1) into Gateway field
Enter 255.255.255.0 into Netmask field
Enter your internet connection’s DNS server (use ipconfig /all command to get DNS info) into DNS 1 and DNS 2. As an alternative, you can use Google Public DNS: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
Connect to Wi-Fi using your password
Disable and Enable Wi-Fi (in case if it won’t connect)
It will start working on your android device.
The reason that you need to do all this is you don't have DHCP server enabled on your windows machine for connectify.
An alternative way is to use "Internet Pass through" USB connection mode. In this case windows will automatically enable a DHCP server.
I have attached the screenshots with the post.
Please ask if you have any further query.

I dont understand, what does this accomplish? If you have wifi just connect to it.

It helps you share your PC internet connection with your phone through wlan if you don't have a wifi connection and your PC is connected to internet via ethernet.
