Help !!

Hello Everyone
I just bought a new XDA II on O2 network. This is the first time am using a PDA. I just want to knw whether i can use this PDA to connect to my laptop through a Private Area Network using bluetooth and thus share the internet on the PDA? If yes, could some one give me a hand on how to configure it?
Best Regards

Magician with MiniSD WiFi

I took Mda Compact from Germany last week and to work on english I upgrade its rom with using WWE_11200_128_11210.zip . As all knows that the main absence on our devices is an embedded wifi, therefore I took Spectec sdw-822 minisd wifi card. I installed its latest drivers, connect with minisd adabtor(only 6mm overflow at the top) and when I try to connect on to a wlan there is no problem I can see that the signal strength and quality is good and connected, but when I try to use i.explorer (or other applications need internet connection) there is no response, "the page you are looking for cannot be found" message seen on the screen. I checked all points and it takes the ip address correctly but there is no chance.
Briefly I couldnt use wifi on my magician.
May be experts knows that there is a solution to this problem and also I wonder what is the difference between WWE_11200_128_11210.zip and WWE_11200_131_11210.exe ?

As you can connect the driver sounds like its working ok, It sounds like its your DNS settings on your Wi-Fi network.
I would suggest you try and "ping" an internet address, this will tell you if you are connected into the internet. I use the ping app in WiFi companion but I'm sure there are others out there.

Thank u very much ampda, the problem is solved when I turn of the encyrption. It is not possible to surf on net when I enable wpa or wep64/128 on my adsl router. Is it normal? I dont want to open my connection to my neighbours, how can I solve this?

both wep 64/128 are easy to crack, so dont bother anyway

without transfering any data what does it mean "easy to crack" :wink:

Problem with DNS?!

Hi there, I'm having problem connecting to the internet using WIFI on my Tornado smartphone (SP5m)... it always connects but takes a while to locate the url, it says "Locating..." in Internet Explorer for a long time and then finally open up the url. To me, it looks like a DNS issue?!
And that's using my own WIFI router at home with a DSL line (5 Mbits), no firewall on it, etc.
But whenever I'm connected to any other WIFI access point (e.g. coffee shops, etc), web pages and other internet stuff would load and open as quick as any WIFI laptop, any thoughts??
Thank you all for your time,
highmighty

I'm having similar problem on my home wifi with 128bit WEP shared key - but i never get over loading...
But I discovered that if I run Skype on the phone, it can connect and since then internet works OK (even mail through POP etc...). I have no idea how to fix it :/, it works excelently with a free wifi networks...

Yep, could it be because my personal wifi connection uses wpa encryption as oppose to no encryption at all (like in coffee shops or elsewhere)?

Try assigning IP manually.

Where would I change that? I'm running WM6 on a SP5m and I don't see where I would modify the way IP address are assigned, either auto or manual?
Thank you for your time

To threadstarter, check your router settings, are you using WEP or WPA which you did not configure on your phone.
Then check to see if you have any MAC filtering included, also ensure DHCP is enabled on your router.
Last resort, if you are using Andot's Perfect English Edition v6, there should be a WLAN IP manager in it under Accesories

You know what? I installed Opera Mini and without changing any wifi settings (router & phone), it now works ultra fast, it locates the proper URL as quick as anywhere else... Internet Explorer for mobile seems to be the problem here?!

Here you go: http://www.modaco.com/WLAN-IP-Manager-t251147.html
You can change IP, gates, DNS and so on.

IE for mobile is slow...
How come IE for mobile is taking forever to "locate" the URL while Opera Mini locates it super fast? Does IE for mobile uses a proxy to render those pages? If so, can I disable that? What other tests could I ran to isolate the issue?
I'd like to find a permanent fix because I'd like to use IE for mobile, which works fine with youtube videos... thanks to you all!

Automatic Wi-Fi connect application

Ok so I was playing around with a friends iPhone a while ago and was impressed that it automatically connected to any un-secure wi-fi connection out there. Is there any sort of application out there that will do the same? It seems more efficient to have something always connect and leave wifi on, but that could just be me.
Let me know if this is possible or if there is already a program to do this. THANKS

eeeehhhhhhhhhhh
well I dont know if this answer your Q, but at least My TILT, automatically conects to the wi-fi conections (that I have already setup , btw: secured conections)
I havent try on any un-secured wi-fi, I dont know a place with unsecured conections...

HD2 Network Management

to whom it may concern, this thread is not being repeated..
what i would like to have to have on my HD2 is the capability of some application/programs (weather, facebook, opera...) to automatically turn on wifi, update/use/download..., then turn wifi off instead of using 3G connection for that..
maybe the possibility to add WIFI option under network management
(comm manager/menu/connections/advanced/select networks/programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using:.. (WIFI)
if someone could help me out via a program or a setting.. would be much appreciated.. thx
