I don't know if is was already this way before (think not), but now with WM2k5, Activesync uses a network connection (either for USB or BT).
As consequence, Activesnc doesn't connect while using my company VPN connection.
It was working before with WM2003.
Any ideas?
Thanks

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,
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.

Hi,
It appears that Internet Sharing no longer works with WM 6.1. (via USB or Bluetooth PAN). It says connected but it doesn't connect to the internet.
Has anyone seen this or know of a solution?
thanks
internet sharing w/6.1 ROM
To get it to work on Vista and XP, before connecting via USB, I open internet sharing on the phone and press "connect" and THEN connect the USB cable.
That is the only way it works for me.
Intenet sharing
Make sure bluetooth is off
connect with activesync 4.5
connect internet sharing
always works for me with XP
if you are using a proxy be sure to point your browser to the same proxy
Hello,
I have internet on my Desktop PC and connect it using the cable to my hd2 through active sync.
so I want to use the HD2 router to connect my laptop to this internet connection. However, when I open the router I cannot rout the active sync. connection but I can only rout the internet from my service provider or 3g which i dont want.
I hope you can help me solve this issue because I really want to use internet on my laptop using my Desktop PC connection through my HD2.
uppppp please anyone answer me
any body wanna answer
So you want your internet connection through usb
I dont believe the wifi router software is capable of routing wifi connections to the usb connection. Only to teh mobile data connection. Perhaps there is other hotspot software that can do this, but the built in one wont. (unless i'm dead wrong, but fairly sure not)
maybe this is what you are searching: http://www.wmwifirouter.com/download/WMWifiRouter-International.cab
Im using the wifirouter with no issue, works well with my data plan!
Greetings!
Is it possible (is there an application for it maybe) to create ADHOC network on android mobile phone that DOES NOT share mobile's phone internet connection? PC client with internet will connect to mobile's phone access point and share its internet with the phone!
My situation is as follows:
I have a PC with Win7 Ultimate! Modem that connects to the internet is Huawei cable ADSL (non-wireless). It is configured in BRIDGE mode and set in windows to share its internet connection! I have integrated WiFi - AP b/g card on my motherboard.
I have configured the ADHOC network with WEP encryption on my PC, so my other devices (laptop and my mobile phone, which is HTC HD2 with ANDROID ROM) can connect to my PC and have internet access!
THIS CONFIGURATION, for some reason, DOES NOT work. My laptop and my mobile phone, who are clients, CAN'T CONNECT to my PC ADHOC network! They can detect the network, however they get stuck at "acquiring network address".
My laptop has Win7 Home Edition, so, I have created ADHOC network on him with WEP encryption. Both my PC and my mobile phone, CAN detect the laptop's access point and CAN CONNECT TO IT! My PC (client) then shares his internet connection with laptop (AP) and my mobile phone (client)!
So, in order to have internet through WiFi with my phone, I have to turn on PC and my laptop.
Since I can't connect with my mobile phone on my PC's ADHOC network, I want to try the opposite. I want the mobile phone to be an ADHOC access point WITHOUT internet connection, and my PC will act as a client WITH shared internet access!
Is this possible? If yes, is there an application that can do this (other applications on the market, for example: Barnacle WiFi Tether can create ADHOC network, but WITH internet sharing... I need without)!
