[Q] Accessing web server on android over ipv6? - General Questions and Answers

So I have a droid razr that has ipv6 functionality. I have my laptop which is also able to access ipv6 web pages. I have an ip cam app on my phone that runs a web server on :8080. I can't for the life of my connect to it over ipv6. On the other hand if I hook both devices up to the same wireless network I can connect to it over ipv4 without any issues.
My question is has anyone been able to run any kind of server be it vnc, web, whatever on their phone and make it work?

No internet when using built in VPN

Having an issue using the built-in VPN. I can set up a PPTP VPN and connect, however, once connected I have no internet (no data). As soon as I disconnect, I have data. Did some searching around the web and noticed it was a know issue on Android, but wondering if others on the TF have the same issue?
When using a VPN it uses the gateway on the remote network. If that network requires a proxy server you won't have an internet connection. There are apps out there that let you set proxy settings, but thankfully Google is finally included the options natively in the 3.1 update. What I would really like them to do though is allow you to use your local gateway instead.
I have no problems using AceVPN www.acevpn.com with my TF using the builtin vpn client. My HTC Inspire also works great on there.
What is the built in VPN client you are speaking of?
I am looking for a VPN client i can use to log into my work network - I assume it doesn't have to be the same client as on my laptop?
I am going on holidays and only taking the TF - I want to be able to VPN into my work network if needed. ON the face of it I don't see how it would work since even if I VPN in the network is MS based so not sure how an Android client works on a MS based network - since I am not remoting into a machine with Windows - just VPNing into the network......so once I am in then what?

Strange data problems - Boost Mobile - tethering - treo pro 850

Over the last few hours, my phone tethered has allowed me to ping external clients via their IP, but not their domain name. I can even use nslookup to change the name server to 8.8.8.8 (google NS), which pings successfully, but fails to act as a DNS server.
Data on the phone is fine, but tethering is very sporadic. A few times was able to get some web pages via IE and Firefox, but now things seemed closed.
This is via both USB and Wireless, ICSControl and built-in ICS for WM.
Right now I'm only able to tether by using a http proxy server.
But, without the proxy server, I'm able to browse websites via IP address. Very strange. It's almost as though port 53 is blocked, or maybe just UDP all together is blocked?
Anybody else having DATA problems tethering?

[Q] Can a tethered PC see other PCs on the network?

My laptop does not have a wifi module yet, so I am using my cyanogenmod wildfire with tethering to access my home network. But it can't see any PC on it. I can ping the IP addresses but DNS does not work.
What I have noticed is that it is the phone which has the IP from my router and the laptop has an IP in another range. My network uses 10.0.0.x and the laptop has a 192.168.x.x.
My guess is that since the IP range is not the same windows restricts it from seeing the other PCs but it's just a guess. I have tried to set the IP manually but then it got no connection.
Is it impossible to use tether to access network PCs?
Bumping anyone?

[Q] vpn can connect but no internet and local lan

Hi, I have a samsung galaxy note 10.1 N8000. On my local network I have a synology diskstation DS213j which can run a vpn server L2TP/IPSec or openvpn.
On my samsung I have the latest official firmware.
L2TP/IPSec server DS213j is working fine with my ubuntu 11.10 notebook. I didn't try openvpn yet, but I guess I get that working too.
On my samsung I can connect nicely to L2TP/IPSec server (with build in android vpn client) or the openvpn server (with Openvpn for android app).
However I cannot access internet or my local lan. Although I can ping my local lan addresses. When I open ie the url to my webinterface of the local lan it tries to connect to it. It sometimes even manage to display the login screen.
I guess my routing on the tablet is wrong. Routing is set to automatic, only dns servers has been filled in manually, because they didn't get pushed right by the openvpn server on my synology. Notice that I don't have this problem on my ubuntu notebook.
Did someone manage to succesfully setup a vpn connection using L2TP/IPSec or openvpn?
If so I must take another look at the vpn servers on my synology, else I think I need to get root access to my tablet to manipulate the routing table.
BTW the goal is to rout all the traffic through the vpn expecially the internet. I need to access the internet through my home IP so I can use the live TV app from my cable/internet provider when I am on the road.

Solved with the official release of DSM 4.3 beta and vpn server update of my synology. As I expected not all the routes were pushed by the server. dns servers I still have to ad them manually.

VPN over 3G/4G on Android and LAN Resources

So I setup a PPTP server on my router. My phone connects to it and traffic flows without issue over 3G/4G. I want to be able to view my LAN resources(NAS, Media Server, Printer, Etc).
The problem is I don't seem to be able to get my phone to realize it's on a LAN. My file explorers and even my HTC apps (like Gallery) insist on connecting to WiFi to be able to access network resources.
My phone is an HTC One running 4.3. Any ideas on how to go on?
