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

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...
i cannot connect to my work wireless...
The ssid is hidden and the netwok is using 802.1x EAP Cisco (Leap) with data encription wep.
My laptop works fine, but i cannot connect my wizard.

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, right now i use my mda mobile 5 (molski edition) wifi only. so the question is this if i change my home settings on my computer from wep, to wpa will i be able to connect my mda. I have tried it before but it did not work, so i am hoping i did something wrong.
The Wizard supports WPA-Enterprise and WPA-PSK authentication with TKIP Encryption, with an updated driver it supports WPA2-Enterprise & WPA2-PSK as well as AES Encryption. I think the latest WM5 AKU 3.3 from T-Mobile supports this natively as well (i.e. the driver is already integrated).
I have personally used WPA/TKIP and now WPA2/AES with my latest WM6 ROM and I have had no problems.

Thx. I just did it. One day i won't be so green.
Hi guys,
Only had my X1 a week and I have already flashed itjes latest TouchIt rom - very nice
The only problem I have is the wifi connection.
I am using a Netgear WNR2000 with SSID not broadcasting and no security and the X1 always says my network is unavailable. Tried with security and SSID broadcast and its the same. However, if I do broadcast the SSID and have no security it does connect fine. Any ideas on how to connect with a little bit of security?
BTW My old Iphone, my Mac, Xbox360 and my MSI Wind all connect fine.
Thanks in advance,
Stu

I'm not using an itje ROM, just bare-bones WM6.1 R2 (and a heap of my own crap)
But my office LAN has no SSID broadcast and a WEP security code.
With this, when you open "new connection", tick the "this network is hidden" box as well as entering the WEP code and network name. If you've done this already, then I dunno.
Tried that mate - thanks anyway!
sadly, I have excactly the same problem... I tried all other diveces (e.g. PDA, laptop etc) but the problem is with the xperia in some way. I can see the proadcasted WiFi hotspots, but i can not connect on them...
I am having problem accessing my internet connection through my wireless router. Everytime, i tried to connect my G1 to my SSID, it says obtaining IP address then it says unsuccessful.My wireless router is a LinkSys 802.11N with WPA encryption. I did some research and the G1 only accepts 802.11b/g routers? Is that true?
that could be true since it runs on 3G network... just go buy a new routher. i use my FiOS and there is 802.11g router
A N router should be able to trasmit to G adapters. At least thats how it is with linksys routers. No need to even go get a new router . Look under the settings and see if its just broadcasting N or if can Do N and G.
Had this problem. Change your security to WPA2 Personal Only, not WPA1. Should fix it.

Thats what I had to do. Please specify more information on what ROM your using. Different ROM's have different Wifi drivers
