Internet Sharing+VPN WM6 problem

I cant figure it out, I just installed the latest v. WM6 Rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=297256)
Internet Sharing via Bluetooth works but... when i start my vpn either via ssl or ipsec (on laptop) NOGO. something is in between dont know what...so workaround:
Internet sharing via USB: the device tells me "connected", the new Network connection in control panel/xp tells me "connected" but there is no Internet connection. I try to ping 192.168.0.1 which it made gateway and this is not found. nothing nada. firewall off. nogo. repair. nogo.
*argh* I realize it are 2 different problem but in short: I can not connect as I usually did under the wm5 dialer (and I miss the status lights).
Anyone has a clue?

Hi !
I have the same problem with the same ROM. I didn't found any solution yet.
I didn't try Internet connection shring with Bluetooth. But your problem sounds as a proxy setting problem on your PDA connexion. You should take a look at those settings...
Let us know if you find anything.
edit :
Finally it's working, I re-installed ActiveSync 4.5 and now it's OK.

I reinstalled activesync, modded down to wm5, then again wm6 ...
and magic usb is working but...
My VPN connection on both BlueTooth or Usb is not working. I use the AT&T client to connect to our network but authentication fails with all vpn servers in the list.
That's a shame because this is really the only basic functionality i need to check my e-mail and stuff "on the road". Hmmm... down to WM5!
Unless someone has got VPN working?

sorry. stupid. forgot the checkmark on the authentication tab on the auto-created controlpanel > networkconnections > Windows Mobile 6 Connection > Authentication.
Great!

For reference, using the Cisco VPN client, with Bluetooth and internet sharing, does not work. With WM6, a Bluetooth PAN adapter is created on the PC, and the Cisco VPN doesn't bind to this type of adapter.
Using the same config, but with the USB cable, and the wireless modem, does work.

Unfortunately It does NOT work anymore.
Whatever I try I can not get connection to the Internet
- I start "connect"
- Plugin the usb cable
- The new network connections icon appears under network connections
- It pops up it is connected
- It has an assigned 192.168.0.2
But no internet connection, ping 192.168.0.1 can not be reached, etc...
I turned off the firewall to see if this was the problem. not.
Is there ayone who has got a clue? This is really frustrating.

For what it's worth, I'm using WM6 Black 2.5 on a Hermes (Cing 8525) and I'm able to use WM6 Internet Sharing via BT to connect my laptop to the internet and I am able to use my Cisco VPN client on my laptop to connect to my company's intranet. No problems here so I don't think it's a WM6 problem.... rather a configuration problem... either on your company's VPN concentrator side or your client side.You may want to chat with your IT/Ops dept for configuration settings.

No problems here nither. I use Vista on PC. I need to connect to several networks and just have made some tests. I could reach all of them. The fact is that most of them are built on Draytek routers not Cisco, but they also use IPSec and so on.

Yep I'm having the same problem, my VPN's worked fine with WM5, but went to Black 2.5 and now when I VPN, it connects, assignes me an IP, but wont let me ping the network.
I _think_ it's becuase now the fone shows up as a network rather than a modem, and assigns me a 192.168.0.x address, and the home network is in this too... any suggestions?

share internet connection with ppc
Can i use my ppc as the wireless adapter? do i need to use "wireless modem" or "activesync" to do this? For more detail, if my computer do not have wireless adapter, and now i want to use the wireless adapter on my ppc to connect to the internet. Is it posible?

VPN issues with WM6??

Has anyone had problems specific to WM6 with VPN connections? I use a Microsoft PPTP VPN to connect back to work, and while the VPN connects and I can access resources on the other end with WM5, WM6 authenticates with the VPN server but never actually connects to servers on the other end. I get error 502 (bad gateway) connecting to web pages, and various shades of "the server could not be found" using Terminal Services, etc. The VPN server logs a successful connection from either OS, but only WM5 seems to be able to connect to resources with the tunnel established. I've used Faria's and mfrazz's WM6 ROMs, and neither works.
If the VPN configuration was off in WM6 vs. WM5, I wouldn't get the "VPN user was granted access" events I use to track usage on the VPN server. Has anyone else seen similar issues? I love WM6 aside from this problem, which appears to be a show-stopper. For now, I'm back to Faria's WM5 so I can get some work done.

So let me broaden the question a little. Does anyone use a WM6 ROM and successfully connect to resources behind a PPTP tunnel? Did it take any massaging on the settings to make the connection??

I have test both PPTP & L2TP/IPSec....
I have tested both PPTP & L2TP/IPSec VPN's with WM6 (varients from all the base ROMs 5.2.318, 5.2.1713 & 5.2.1437) and I have got them all to work. PPTP works flawlessly all the time, however L2TP/IPSec seems to have some conflict with the networking stack & the VoIP stack and only works consistently the 1st time following a soft-reset.
I have tested it with Terminal Services Client to access an internal Windows Terminal Server and it worked fine.
What issues are you having? The main problems people seem to have are related to the logic of when a VPN connection will be used instead of the Internet Connection to send traffic - the Connection Settings etc.

With WM6 I create the VPN connection, add an exception for my work network, then try to open either a web page or RDP. GPRS connects, the VPN server is contacted soon thereafter, and then nothing happens. If I'm on PIE, I get a 502 error if I try to open URLs, and RDP returns "the server could not be located." I'm using servername.my.workdomain.net for RDP, with "*.my.workdomain.net/*" as the exception rule with both WM5 and WM6, but I can't get past the VPN endpoint with WM6. With WM5 (still using it for now), I can get to web pages and remote desktop without any problems.
Since the VPN is apparently connecting, and the VPN server's log shows my account is granted access, I'm thinking it's not the WM6 VPN configuration. I'm getting through that far, but there's something in the WM6 network stack that's not translating the destination URLs or host name correctly.
If only there was client logging for RDP and PIE...

Still trying to work past this. The PIE error I get when connecting to web sites behind the VPN is:
Error 502 - Bad Request
The server could not resolve your request for uri: /
If I try to connect to directories under the root, the error is (for example):
Error 502 - Bad Request
The server could not resolve your request for uri: /docs
Not sure how I can troubleshoot this...

Pocket MSN Live Port number[SOLVED]

Hi,
I have a question about the "new" Pocket MSN Live: how do I find the port used by the application to connect and sign up?
And why do I ask? At home, I can connect without any hitches, but during the week, in the dorms where I stay, me and a friend of mine recently added a new router to kill bittorent(it fcked up the dorm network connection, and gave us lasting outages), and so configured it to allow only certain ports(it was hell on earth to properly set the access control list in the Cisco IOS...), and I tohught PocketMSN uses the same port as the PC version. but ever since the ACL was implemented, I can't connect, so I'm guessing it doesn't.
So can anyone give me some help with this? I tried Googling for it, but nothing useful came up
Thanks in advance for your reply!

Got it ... maybe
Okay, I read something of interest in the Trinity forum: port 443 is login, and 50001 is the communication(TCP, I assume). The program itself doesn't change from platform to platform, so if I open these ports in the router, I should be able to login with my Uni too, right?
Can anyone test this to confirm, since I don't have the router at home with me to test it?

It's confirmed, after opening port 50001 TCP in the Acces-List, MSN works just like a charm! Case Closed!

that helps
That explains why I'm having so much trouble logging in to msn pocket messenger. I have port 443 forwarded to a server on my lan and it takes 20 goes at it on my pda before messenger will sign in. Is there any way to change the authentication port from 443 to a different port?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I guess I fall into this category as well and any solution here will help as it takes more than 20 attempts before I can sign into Pocket MSN & Hotmail. Though I use both an Athena and TyTn II, I have the same problems connecting over wi-fi and TMobile internet & i have no idea where to find what port connects to what. do I need to install an application to find this out & change the ports? please help..anyone...

What windows version does your PC run?
Have you actually activated remote desktop on the PC?
Are you trying to connect via local network (are you at home) or from another place? If from another place, have you configured your router to forward port 3389 to your PC?

I'm having the same problem.. Not had any experience in remote desktoping myself (except stopping the Work's IT guy from spying on me whilst i trawl through XDA good at stopping, not so good at starting )
I think the reason I havent managed to get it to work is down to my router (Thompson peice of s*it!) wont let me.....
What i'm trying to get at is it might be your router...

Can't do it either, Thompson router might be my issue.

i did'nt look at the youtube vids, so i'm not sure you already looked into this. when on the target computer remote desktop is probably already on, but did you also allow all (older) versions of remote desktop te connect?
i remember that option is there since vista (perhaps even XP). for example: when that option is turned off in vista, any xp machine won't be able to connect. i'm pretty sure remote desktop mobile qualifies for 'old'

1. Right click on My Computer , properties , remote , enable remote on this computer
2. Do not obtain private address automaticly from your router , use static IP private address instead ,and on your router do a port forwarding to that static address
example 192.168.0.10 port 3389
3.Install client from dyndns.org that will map your IP address to your dynamicly changing IP global address that your service provider assignes you
4.Configure Administrator password on your windows computer if you dont allready have it
5.Run your remote desktop from your winmo and input all necessary that you had configured
I know that wont probablly be enough , but it is a start ,all missing blanks fill by yourself , google for things you dont know

done all that, still getting same connection error as the OP

im so confused now i dont know what ip i should put into the hd2 remote desktop app and dont even know if i configured my router ( asus wl520 gc ) right =/ if some 1 has the same router as i do, could you please tell me how to config it?

still cant get to work.

Remote Desktop nightmare..
Seems like u guyz gave up on this prob lol.
I getting really frustrated now, after 4 hours trying to get it working.
I have Vista Home Premium. Ppl on some sites are saying that you cannot use this OS to connect remotely. Then some say it works perfectly.
I added the ports on the rooter. Just to check if they are open I downloaded portchecker. (Pic added)
UDP 3389
Port is open.
TCP 3389
"Could not test port 3389 because some other application has that port locked. Please close any applications that may be using this port and try again."
Have no idea what application would be locking this port. If I go to canyouseeme.org the port is open and is not blocked by ISP.
Just to make sure I am doing rite:
Computer: Which IP do I use? My outside IP?
Username: This can be the one I am using to log into my computer or the full account name?
Password: password I'm using to log in
Domain: Leaving blank.
Anyone can help or sorted this issue out before?
Thanks
Suz

Remote Desktop Sorted..
Hi there..
Just wanted to add this in case someone else has the same issue.
If you have Vista Home Premium the Remote Desktop is disabled in the OS. You have to re-enable it using a hack.
This is the link which walks you through it hxxp://www.missingremote.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1220&Itemid=224
Once you finish this make sure that you have the port forwarding on your router for 3389.
If you do it should run. I noticed that my internet connection died once I was able to connect to my computer using my HTC HD2. Once I disabled the port forwarding the internet worked again.
It's rather difficult to navigate on your PC using your Phone without a stylus but hey I'd rather have this than missing some other stuff..
If you need help with the remote send me a pm. I know how frustrating this can be..

[Q] how to access phone with dyndns?

I downloaded a dyndns client http://l6n.org/android/dyndns.shtml from this site, the application seems to work properly.
A normal DSL connection has an assigned IP and fixed (at least for a certain period of time), and the network cellualare how it works?
I tried not to use the dyndns client and type in the address bar, the real IP, but equally I can not reach my phone (I see the IP assigned to the phone is rather odd and is something like 1.x.xx . xx).
Is there any solution?

Port forwarding may need to be enabled.

Hi
If you external ip address is 10.xx.xx.xx, there si no way to access your mobile from outside directly, but what you can do is creating remotly a tunnel and forward the ports you want to access.
Try ConnectBot, it does quite well the whole thing.
