Hi,
I am working on a project and i need a local private network to do some testing for WiFi. I am trying to connect to a Router which is not having the DHCP server .I have manually changed the settings of Router. Since the DHCP server is not running in the Router, the DHCP client will not be able get the IP address . As I know, if there is no DHCP server in the network the DHCP client should assign an Auto IP in the series 169.254.xx.xx according to the Zeroconf logic. But this is not working. The DHCP client is getting timed out and connection is getting reset. I am using the DHCP client version 5.2.10 from Roy Marples.
Does this DHCP client support the Zeroconf? If DHCP client supports, how to enable the Auto IP ?

Hi Folks,
I have set up my wife's SPV E650 to hook up to our wireless network at home so she can connect to the internet through the home wireless network. We have static IP's on our LAN. Although I have specified a static IP for the E650's wireless connection, I cannot find out where I specify the DNS servers to allow her to connect to the internet via our ISP, (I know the DNS server IPs, I just can't find out where I enter that info on the E650). So at the moment, I can connect to the home network, but cannot get onto t'internet!
It is quite likely that I am being a spaz and am missing something obvious... regardless, if you can help me, let me know!
Cheers

even if you have a static IP you should not have to specify a static DNS because your default gateway should be your router IP address and your router should automatically give the DNS servers to any device that pulls that ip address

Thanks for your response.
All the other devices on my home network (laptop, PC, Xbox 360, SPV M3100) ask for the DNS server to be specified in a static IP environment, and they all connect to the internet just fine through the wireless network.
I am sure you are right, but I know that none of the above mentioned devices connect to the internet without the DNS servers specified.
So, question remains, how do I specify the DNS servers on the E650? Maybe a registry entry?
@mortalwombat,
i have the same problem with my htc s710.
Even though I run the wireless network with static IPs, I set my HTC S710 to get the IP "from a server" (= dynamic IP setting).
I did this after I tried with an IP Adress within my IP Adress Range.
So what happened is that my S710 somehow gets an IP Adress from my router that is almost in my regular IP Range.
You can try to set an static IP Adress within your Range first and then switch to dynamic IP Adress on you device..

hi,ALL.
I have two ppc,A and B, A create a bluetooth PAN access point,B connect to A(especial reason,only B connect to A,not A connect to B).B have two network adapter,And B use NAT service.
A ip 192.168.0.1
mask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.0.2
B ip 192.168.0.2
mask 255.255.255.0
gateway none
WiFi ip 192.168.1.2
mask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.1 (This interface connect to internet)
Now, On A ppc,a few tool app can connect to internet,but PIE can't connect to internet,I think PIE use ConnMgrConnectionStatus api check status. What api can resolve this problem?
In my office I've had problems connecting my SPV 650 (VOX) to the wireless router.
I recently got a HTC Tattoo, and had the same problem. Eventually I stopped using the routers DHCP server, and assigned it myself, and I changed the DNS to work with the correct DNS server settings. This worked a treat.
However, on my SPV, if I assign the IP addresses etc, I have trouble with the DNS server. There is no where to set it, all I can change is the device's IP address, the gateway and the subnet mask...
Anyone know if I can set the primary and secondary DNS servers in the registry? Its doing my head in.
Thanks, Chris
Hello,
How can I find the IP address for the DHCP server my Nexus One is attached to?
I am having a dual-DHCP server conflict but I do not know what the second server is and I do not know how to find the DHCP server IP address on my android phone.
Thanks,
Phil
2 DHCP servers in one Local network (Wired, Wireless or hybrid) will cause many problems, if you are the SysAdmin Disable one of them
anyway ,
you cant really determine what is the DHCP server unless its the same device as the router, in this case your Default gateway is the DHCP server
1st they blocked me from the Staff Wifi
Now they blocked me from Student Wifi
or they changed the password BUT using the app Wifi Connection Manager, it says connected so i think the password is correct
It gets stuck at scanning or associating (scan paused)
I tried using the app Override DNS but it cant even associate so it returns errors of original DNSs were null etc.
I'd like to try use Static IP which is a option in the app Wifi Connection Manager
but it needs IP Address, Gateway and Netmask as well as DNS 1 & 2 which I could use 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 but I don't know the IP Address, Gateway and Netmask which go with the Google DNS
I will thank helpful comments!
