Is it possible to setup the XDA so that when its in the cradle it will use my internet connection on my PC ?
On my old SPV which ran the Smartphone 2002 operating system, you could select "Automatic" as the connection type for the internet, so if it was out of the cradle it would use GPRS or WAP or if in the cradle it would use my PC's connection.
I have scouted about in the menus, but can't see anything :?
Cheers
Ok, I just tried it without altering any settings and it just worked
BUT, I have now setup the GPRS settings for Orange, and even when the phone is in the cradle its trying to dial GPRS, any suggestions ??

hi! i was just wondering if anybody knew a way of getting messenger to connect over a lan, or internet explorer to connect over a lan? i have my xda setup to connect via gprs, but not as a standard connection. so whenever i try to use IE or messenger it doesnt recognise the connection. i can get the ezwap to work, because i could change the setting on it to connect over a lan, but i cant find anywhere to change the others.
thanks
Go into active-sync on your PC. (I assume you mean using you PC LAN). Then go into options -> Rules.
In Pass through, choose Connection: The Internet.
This should do what you want.
basically what it is is, im using a seperate dial up connection via gprs which IE and messenger dont recognise and dont think theres a connection. can i change the settings in the registry to get them to only connect via a lan, i.e. piggy backing over the connection i have.
thanks
How did you get yours working with ISP, I have made number of trials. No, luck et all. I can not internet/isp/gprs working. By the way I am on another network than I originally purchased. So neither of them giving any support.
Thanks.
sometimes you have to reconnect in to the cradle to get it working
I have my cabel modem provider inbox setup on my SX56 currently though nPOP. The thing I do not know how to figure out is how the bugger is connecting to the mail server without prompting or indicating its connected via GPRS. I know the SX56 does not have bluetooth, but does it connect perhaps to my wireless network to get the mail?? Is there a way that if this is how its connecting, to surf the internet while in my house using that wireless networking interface??
ANYTHING would be appreciated.

Maybe I don't understand the question clearly. If your PDA is connected to your desktop PC via ActiveSync, your PDA "can see" the Internet.
No, i mean, when i have it disconnected from the internet, nPOP can actually connect to the email server without a connection to the GPRS line. Im just stumped as to how that is possible. I dont know if it already grabs the mail from when i hot sync, or it actually connects to the net through a wireless connection to the network....does the SX56 have 802.11b connection??
stumped still

If nPOP runs at the background, while you connected with activesync, and your desktop PC connected to the internet, it is possible to nPOP downloads e-mails.
SX56 is a Wallaby, that has not got a WLAN interface.
Hello all,
my current GPRS connection is always disconnected if i put my QTEK2020 into the cradle. Is there a solution that the connection wil not be interuppted?
Thx Yoshi
This not a bug, this is feature (there can be only one connection on PDA)... But if you want only to charge your MDA2/XDA2, switch of USB ActiveSync and then it won't disconnect you from GPRS...
but why can i establish a new GPRS connection after activesync is connected via USB? in that case i have 2 connections :?:
Regards Yoshi
Because you cannot have two connections on the PPC.
Does anybody know how to set up a M1000 to a laptop with BT on it so that it uses the GPRS connection?
Also is it possible to use Activesync over BT?
The only services my laptop can see on the phone are SSA and voicegateway.
I'm using WM2003SE mysterymans orange rom but there was no difference before i upgraded.
Cannot seem to get any widcomm/toshiba stacks to work at all on this.
Hello,
i have a question regarding the modem functionality of the StrTrk under WM 6.1 Pro V2.
How can I share the Internet Connection of the phone to a Notebook?
(I already found the "Internet Sharing" shortcut but the question is what to do after...)
In order to find it out, i activated the Sharing through Bluetooth PAN. (On the telephone).
Now ist the the question what I have to do on my Notebook.
My Notebook displays me a Dial Up Connection and a Network Access Point Connection.
What I have to chose and what I have to enter on the Notebook then?
Is there anything to do with the telephone (except the sharing shortcut)?
Many Thanks for helpful answers!
No one for answer?
First off you will need to install active sync onto your laptop, then you will need a sync cable that will attach your phone to the USB port on your laptop. (bluetooth would be very hard to get working for this)
On your phone, start Internet sharing, and then select connect, after it says "Check USB cable connection", plug your phone into the sync cable that is plugged into your laptop.
The active sync will not try to sync but a new internet connection will be found by Windows XP.
Hope this helps
I have the same problem after I upgraded the ROM from HTC website. The upgraded ROM was still wm5. Now I upgrade the ROM from wm5 to wm6. The problem is still there. I checked the modem configuration in XP from control panel, but I can't find the modem device.
I also followed the advice here, but the screen of my phone just indicated "Check USB cable connection". I didn't get the instruction to connect the USB cable.
The upgrading was really nice for my phone except I can't use my phone as a modem. I do want to repair this problem.
Any idea?
Hello,
do you already installed active sync?
Another Problem:
I cant connect the phone through usb cable because the laptop is from the company where I work for. Iam not allowed to install any driver (On my own PC the Generic RNDIS is need to be installed). Is ist possible to have the modem functionality through Bluetooth without using Active Sync?
You don't need ActiveSync / Windows Mobile Device Center to use the Internet Sharing on WM6.
For connecting via USB, make sure you ActiveSync is disconnected and the USB cable is unplugged before you click Connect in Internet Sharing. When you receive the prompt for 'Check USB Cable Connection' plug the USB lead in again. Windows should now detect new hardware in form of a 'Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device' instead of the usual 'Smartphone USB Sync' and a new Local Area Connection should appear in Network Connections.
The Bluetooth PAN option depends on the Bluetooth Stack installed on Windows. If you have the default Microsoft Bluetooth Stack installed (Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista) you can go to Network Connections (on Vista open Network and Sharing Center and click Manage Network Connections below Tasks) and double click on the Bluetooth Network Connection icon. In the dialog that opens the phone's Bluetooth PAN Connection should be listed for you to Connect to.
That's it. You should be browsing the Internet via GPRS / EDGE.
I did install Activesync. Even I can see the remote rndis Internet device after I plug the usb cord to my laptop, the modem doesn't work. I also can't find the modem in the control panel for it.
Thanks, I connected my Cingular 3125 to my computer. The connection is a local connection as a Ethernet card instead of a dial connection. So I don't have to set up a modem driver for it.
Just in case I wasn't clear, you don't need ActiveSync for this to work, the functionality is done entirely separately.
There is no modem device any more, it's all done using a "Virtual" Local Area Network which you'll find listed in Network Connections.
You shouldn't need to configure anything, just plug in the USB cable and wait a few seconds. The phone should initiate a GPRS / EDGE connection automatically and you should then have access to The Internet.
If it doesn't, you may need to temporarily disable any other Local Area Connections (especially any that are used for Internet access) so that your PC is forced to use the one provided by the phone's virtual network connection.
Thanks, your explanation is very clear. The process is exactly like what you said.
StarTrek can be connected with Ubuntu as a Ethernet card now.
