I have BELKIN broadband router (Irish Eircom broadband). Is it possible to connect XDA IIi (alpine) to this router through WiFi connection??? If Yes - Help me!
Yes it is. If the router is on the default settings you just need to touch the antrenna symbol at the bottom of the Today screen, then the green square at the bottom right, then the WLAN box and turn on WLAN.
Does anyone have a guide on how to setup a secure connection between PC & Phone on WI-FI?
It's baffling the heck out of me!

Depends on the router, what ya got?
I dont have a router, I have a WI-FI PCI card and my router is conected via ethernet
So you are trying to set up an ad-hoc connection.
You need to set your wireless on both the computer and the PDA to ad-hoc.
To do this on the PC depends on your operating system and device. Set up your wireless connection on the PC first making sure it is set up as an ad-hoc network.
On your XDAIIi Start>Settings>Connections Tab>Network Cards
You should see the network you have set up on the PC, make sure the ad-hoc box is ticked and connect to it.
You may have to set the TCP/IP settings manually. If you have a problem with doing that post up what you have done and how far you have got.
Yes, I'v got a connection! But NetFront_v3.2 says "Cannot read page." So, i can not surf Internet.

Do you have the DHCP server turned on on the router?
Yes1 DHCP server IS turned on on the router.
OK, when you are connected and you click on the Wi-Fi icon on the bottom of the screen, does the network address match that of the router or has it set a default one?
Internet Connection Sharing
Depeding on your OS (is it windows/linux etc.) you'll nmeed to set up some form of proxy server or other packet forwarding to persuade the machine to accept packets on the WiFi card and to forward them to the Internet.
If you are using XP (or from memory 2K) you can switch on Internet connection sharing, follow the wizard and then browse to your hearts content.

Hi,
I also have a laptop with build-in Wifi and a qtek 2020i. I've shared the lan connection on the laptop and created a wirelles network. The laptop and qtek 2020i see each other but i can't surf on the qtek. i have windows XP.
The ip address on the qtek is fixed by default and is supposed to be 192. etc i read somewhere...
I use a modem/routeur (thomson 530) on which the laptop is connected (lan).
Could you please explain me how should i setup or manuallay choose the ip on my qtek?
Many thanks
john
Hey there

perhaps i'll give that a try, it might work for me, i hope it does as i'm not having much luck
Hi Guys,
This is starting to get confused - there are two types of connection being set up here: -
Firstly a cabled connection between the PC and the router with a wireless card in the PC. in this instance you need to forward the packets from the wireless card to the ethernet card and then onto the router.
In this case, if you are using Windows 2K or XP use the Internet connection sharing wizard, this will then enable packet forwarding on your PC, with a "DHCP server" (not fully functional) on the wireless card, when you establish the Ad Hoc (set exactly the same SSID on both cards - remember it's case sensitive and that should be all you need for Ad-Hoc) wireless connection between the 2020i and the PC you should then find that you are assigned an IP address (192.168.0.x is the default from memory). You should then have the IP address of the Wireless Interface Card on the PC set as your default gateway and DNS server - you need each of these entries in order to able to connect to the Internet.
If you want to secure this connection, you can use WEP (40 bit or 128 bit Same Key same position on both SSID configs), though remember that if a sniffer collects about 300K packets, it is possible to use AirCrack to regain the wep key - paranoid but true.
If you have a wireless gateway, this should (in all probability) already have a DHCP service up and running on it (it's probably giving your PC all of the IP settings it needs) so all you should need is to establish a connection between these two devices. Switch wireless on on the 2020 and you should be prompted with a message box saying Your_SSID connects you to and offer you work and Internet, select Internet if there is a WEP key or other form of encryption enabled you will be prompted for a key. In theory you will have set all of this up on the router in the first place so probably have some idea of what you are doing.
Hope this helps, if not feel free to throw abuse.
Kind Regards
Dave
try this link:

I tried it last night and it got it working in about 5 minutes!! was well pleased . I'm using the infrastructure mode, got a XDAIIi and a D-Link G604T. I dont have any authentication setup, the only thing I use is the MAC based access list, so I had to add the XDA MAC into the router access list and for the rest I followed what the above link said.
Tip: make sure you do a reset for the settings to take effect, did'nt realise thats why it took me five minutes!
hiya... sorry to bug anyone about this... but i have a problem logging on wifi connection on my Xda IIi...
using a dell TrueMobile 2300 wireless router...
(( i got a stinking feeling i might not able to do this.. cos been trying the last 4 hours and i just recalled whenever a com wants to link up with this router.. that com have to go thru it's Cd to Authz it first.. . ))
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
WPA WiFi connection
The only secure WiFi connection I can use on my XDA IIi is via WEP. For some unknown reason I cannot connect using WPA.
Any ideas...
Is there anyone that's upgraded to WM2005 using a Spectec WiFi card?
My BA has inbuilt WiFI (802.11b) but I need 802.11g.
Spectec suggest it only works with a few WM2005 PDA's. Is anyone actually using the Spectec SDW-821 & WM2003 to access 802.11g networks. I would consider downgrading to WM2003 but only if I am sure I will get 802.11g.
Do I need to disable the inbuilt 802.11b network adapter before the Spectec will work? I am using the latest driver.
Eureka Blue Angel can connect to 802.11g networks

It turned out that a new driver was issued by Spectec on the 14th October. Much more joy with this driver (wlan11g206.cab). They still don't provide a WLAN utility for WM5 but it works with the WM5 WiFi manager.
After a bit of playing around (could have been removing encryption and then adding back after first connection) I can now connect to my router when it is set to g networks only. Currently only using WEP encryption as my router doesn't offer anything else. The driver has authentication as:
Open
Shared
WPA
WPA-PSK
WPA2
WPA2-PSK
Encryption can be:
Disabled
WEP
TKIP
AES
I believe LEAP & PEAP is also available for those that are interested.
I will try WPA-PSK and TKIP next week at work and provide an update (UPDATE connected to WPA-PSK TKIP MAC filtered network first time although it disconnects quite frequently. It stays connected longer if I stream wmv files via WiFi but it still disconnects after say 10 minutes. the signal strength is EXCELLENT and much better than my home network. Any ideas why the very strong signal WPA-PSK MAC filtered network should disconnect more frequently than my weak signal WEP encrytped (none MAC filtered) network?)
Please note I want 802.11g for security not for added speed.
Note the inbuilt network adapter is set to off in Wireless LAN Manager.
i cannot connect to my work wireless...

Did you ever get an answer. I am trying to get a LEAP connection too! any info would be great.
Goto Junpier.net and search for Odyssey Client. You can register for a free 10 day trial. It's the same client that came on the Dell Axim. My company uses the same thing, and I've had sucess with it under WM5. A couple of small tips when installing. I've noticed if you deactivate the phone first, you have better luck with the program. Also, it seems that under WM6, I haven't been as lucky with the problem.
Hi,
When I connect to my work wifi i can´t update the weather (from htc today screen) nor my emails (windows live and gmail). Using opera i can use internet with no problems. I have my proxy configured in connections.
I connect to wifi using odessy due to the kaiser natural inability to connect to a wpa2+aes+mschapv2 wireless network.
Does anyone know why this might be happening?
Please!!! Can somebody help me with it?
Disable yer proxy when using WiFi
Using my HTC Touch Diamond with the company VPN, I have a strange problem:
. Trying to connect to my VPN with GPRS signal, everything is ok, VPN is opening and my device works correctly.
. Trying to connect to my VPN with 3G or HSDPA, VPN is not working(independly from the signal level). The messages received are "Server Problem ..." or "Disconected from remote..."
I'm using IPsec/L2TP protocol and a private key.
Before the Diamond I succesfully used P3600, Q9090, Q9000 in the same VPN. I have no idea where is the possible solution.
Someone can help me?
Thanks in advance
