So i'm looking for the hotspots log in application. Ever since i flashed to the pdaviet touchflo rom on my wing I have been missing this. Is there any place to just get the cab file? Or any other way to be able to log back onto hotspots?
thanks
You can login without the application.
1. Add a new wifi access point - Network name = tmobile - next page tick "The key is automatically provided" - Next - Finish. There are no other settings needing editted here.
2. Goto a hotspot location and turn on your wifi and highlight "tmobile" - connect.
3. Open your browser (IE) and wait until the intial page loads. Here you will get your login ability. Login (username is usually your 10 digit phone # and password if not changed is the last 4 digits of the account holders SSN) - Browse as you please
Note: You can do this with any wifi enabled device not only the phone example your laptop or PSP.
I think he is talking about using the Tmobile hotspot to make calls over the voip. Like "Hotspot at home" for tmobile.
I thought I was told the Wing is not applicable to [email protected] program. Hmm interesting might need to read into that a little more.

This is exactly what i was looking for. I appreciate it!

Your welcome glad I could help. I spent the time on the phone with blackberry/PDA support on T-Mobile customer care to get that info. The 1st tier of support was stubbornly stating I had to use any tmobile device that accepts a sim card and use the prebuilt software. That was the only way according to the 1st tier got to Blackberry/PDA support and asked them how would it be done on a PSP and eventually they told me its all available in the Homepage and just to use my info. They were not forthcoming with what my info was and I eventually got them to tell me it was my 10 digit # and the last 4 of the primaries SSN. Now after you set all that up you can goto the Hotspot page and user your control panel there to do what you can with Hotspots. But it is definitely nice to know that the data package I got with T-Mobile Internet is exactly what they say it is and I do not have to get another $20 package to use Hotspots like the 1st representative was telling me I had to do.
Definately..
I'm not totally about the customer service reps either. Dont get me wrong, there are plenty out there that know what they are talking about, but there are plenty out there that dont! When I first got my Wing I was in a hurry. I bought it and left the store quickly. I called tmobile a bit later to add the total internet package to my plan and after about 20 minutes the rep told me that i could not get it on my plan!! I was like WHAT!! I just spent almost 400
bucks and you're telling me I cant get internet service on this smartphone?!? The reps exact words were "That is correct sir. However if you go and upgrade to a blackberry you can add the blackberry internet package." Then of course I politly told the rep she didnt have a f**king clue! So I went to a store and they added it on no problem.
I upgraded all via the internet. Never get a deal with them anyway as a matter of fact all my grandfathered packages always seem to disappear and they want to charge me more everytime I talk to them. Have had so many problems with the motorola devices from them. The wife got a nokia 8801 and we have had it replaced 4 times the battery and speaker system on that device is just horrible from them. The whole battery connector fell out right off the circuit board no abuse from the wife she takes decent care of her devices. But on subject I had the Internet Package for the nokia ngage and something happened and they offered a special package/price for it at the time. Well the program ceased and I was offered the Intenet Data package at $9.99. I was on that for a long time and then all the sudden it all stopped. I ended up with plain old t-zones. I had t-zones on all our phones 3 total and after they told me they can't help me I just cancelled the other 2 phone t-zones and went with internet on my phone and they can goto a Starbucks with a laptop if they need internet. I'm sure they love the coffee I havent had any myself not a coffee fan lol. But in the end I just got upgraded and had to figure it all out myself and argued with them to get it done right. I won't complain about the service I get what I pay for I don't expect much more than that. I have learned that major companies just don't appreciate the customer on a one on one basis.

But then you have to open the web browser and enter the password everytime you want to connect. I'm looking for the CAB too so that I can save my password and the log-in can be automatic. Nobody's got it, huh??

Excellent! Thanks! I want to use it on a Kaiser though, so that custom ROM you mentioned won't work.
Although I'm sure there must be a way to extract it from the NBF, huh?
did anyone ever find a cab or make one?
if so please post
thanks =]
I made these cabs a while back... I'm surprise no one found them by searching the site
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2010453&postcount=2
Here are the direct links to download as long as you're logged into the site:
duprade T-mobile Hotspot Utility.CAB
duprade T-mobile T-Zones.cab
thanks for the cabs!
No problems.
Excellent! Thanks!
I think the search does not index attachment filenames and that post was about tZones. They'll find it now I'm sure.
Thanks again! It works great!
What exactly does the Tzones cab do? does it set up the Tzones proxy for you?
Save my day !
Thanks for the files, you saved my day !

Hi guys - need some help.
Been following the guide on how to get Vodaphone Live to work on the HTC branded TytnII.
Done the registry editor changes to it now appears to be an Nokia N95... but every time I try to copy the Browsers.dll file across to the windows directory I get a write permissions error.
Any ideas?
Cheers
Tony
Try using Resco Explorer or Total Commander to copy "browser.dll" to \Windows...
I think the built-in file explorer will give you an error, but those two should allow you to copy it over.

Hiya this is the guide I used:
http://www.modaco.com/Vodafone-Live-Settings-t259142.html
I tried the settings in the thread Wise1 gave but it didn't work. Has anyone got vodafone live to work on the TyTnII?
Use the cab in here...
It uses the same browser.dll and reg settings as mentioned in the guide, but only takes two seconds (and a soft reset).
Oh, and always remember that you have to connect to the internet via the *WAP* settings before you can get on to Vodafone Live! - you'll get an error if you're connected via the "Internet" settings.
Enjoy!
It Worked!!!!
Thanks Sub69 it worked. I had spent hours trying to get Mobile TV.
Just thought I'd add one note though for those people that download the cab and then expend the Internet browser to work.
Once you have installed the cab go to START, Settings, Connections, then click on Connections icon. Click on Advanced and Select Networks. On programs that automatically connect to the Internet, select Contract WAP from the dropdown menu.
Next goto Internet Exployer and type http://live.vodafone.net. It should then work.
p.s. turn off WiFi as this will stop internet streaming on vodafone live
Thank you for this...
This worked perfectly for me, although I had to enter wsp://live.vodafone.com before it loaded the vodafone live! homepage (http:// at the start didn't work).
Amazing isn't it how Vodafone happily sell Windows Mobile devices but don't support them with Vodafone live and Pocket IE!
Personally, I use: http://live.vodafone.co.uk but as long as it all works, that's the main thing!
And yes, you must be connected via the *WAP* settings otherwise you get a "service is not responding at this time" error.
Bit of a pain that - I've tried all sorts of fiddling with the exception list etc. and I just can't get it to switch connection settings automatically when navigating to the Vodafone pages.
app to devellop...
If a dev guys could write a little apps with two big button to switch to :
* Vodafone Live wap
* Defaut internet
it's would be nice if you can setup within the applic 2 network config something like:
Button1(I):
Internet connect with : ....
Work connect wit : ....
Button 2(WAP):
Internet connect with : ....
Work connect wit : ....
and an option to start PIE to another web page ... with button 2...
Still not working...even with the .cab
Thanks guys...I'm another HTC TYTN ii user and I got all excited reading this thinking I'd finally found the fix (I hate Vodafone for selling me the Vodafonelive/MobileTV package and then not supporting me!!). I've loaded the .cab and followed the instructions for the reset. I'm also using WAP to now try and access the vodafone live sites...but no joy!!! :-( The following errors occur on each respective 'potential' Vodafone live page.
http://live.vodafone.co.uk - Gives me the error message: Bad Gateway - The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server. Additionally, a 502 Bad gateway error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
http://live.vodafone.com - This must timeout in some other way because I get an IE initiated message saying The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost. Check the connection and try again later.
http://live.vodafone.net again an IE initiated message saying The page cannot be found. Check the name and try again.
wsp://live.vodafone.net again an IE initiated message saying The page cannot be found. Check the name and try again.
wsp://live.vodafone.com This must timeout in some other way because I get an IE initiated message saying The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost. check the connection and try again later.
wsp://live.vodafone.co.uk
Can someone please advise if I need to do anything else...or can you think of anything else that I can try???
By the way...I do at least get the EXCEPTIONS working out in Connections...By inputting the above sites into EXCEPTIONS, they do connect over WAP rather than IS(3G).
Pleeeeeease help! Cheers.
The cause is just your tricks to use exception...! Don't try to use it, even if it connect right...do a manual connect you will see the difference
I got those sorts of error messages when I was trying to work out how to use the exception list too. Very long "loading" times, followed by IE timeout errors.
Should work fine if you set your connections so that the "Programs that automatically connect to the Internet" are using the "Contract WAP" settings...
Same here?!

Same here?! Kaiser (Vario III) with Dutty´s Kaiser Final 2 (TouchFlo). Running fine.
What happened:
Try to establish internet connection. "wap.vodafone.de" (without Proxy)
- Vodafone Mail works fine (POP)
- IE (only http://www.vodafone.de) works fine
- Every other page (also wsp://live.vodafone.de) The page cannot be found. Check the name and try again.
Add Proxy 139.007.029.001 like it is written in some "Threads":
- Vodafone Mail --> did not work any longer. Sync error (Could not establish connection)
- No IE connection is possible.
Any idea?
Thanks. Bye.
Reversing the Vodafone cab file
Hi Sub69
I have been able to use Vodafone Live TV fine on my TyTn II for sometime but recently I wanted to look on a site that won't work as it said that my phone had been detected as a Symbian S60 unit and wanted me to download a .sis file which obviously won't work on the TyTn II. Have you got a cab file that does the reverse of the vodafone Live cab file and reverts the TyTn back to a WM6 device as far as some programs are concerned. I will then be able to toggle between the 2 as and when I need to.
Thanks

#BUGS

Great work! Now for some feedback..
It was a little confusing with the YES and NO responses.. I assumed all the good stuff was in the voxmobili folder, so I copied that over to my Windows folder and hit Yes to All to copy the entire directory. So far so good. Launched the program. Everything goes ok, until the very end where I get a Synchronization not successful with the error "Authentication failed."
Soo.. the question is, was there anything in the folder that serves to authenticate my number? I wouldn't think so. But that's what happened to me. Any thoughts?
I'm not aware of any authentication process.
First, are you using ND4SPD's 1.0 Developer's rom?
Second, what are your GPRS settinsg for T-Mobile Data and T-Mobile MMS. Are you using a proxy of any kind? If so, how is it setup?
Third, check if Data Connection is enabled.
-----------------------
Regarding the Yes and No part. The 6.1 rom has its own stock voxmobili folder. While the T-Mobile 6.0 has its own, plus the t-mobile address book application, graphics and dll's. I didn't want you to overwrite any of the files from 6.1 since they might possibly be newest then the ones from the older rom. That's why I asked you not to overwrite files already on your device.
Hey it worked! From my last post to this one, I did precisely three things - try to synchronize three more times. Two times it gave me the error, and on the third try it went right through. So the problem was on T-Mobile's side.
So even a Yes to All and overwriting all the files in my directory worked.
I am using the 4.1 beta ROM.
Hey,
Well I'm happy that it worked. Copying the older files isn't problamatic. I'm just not sure if their is a difference between the newer ones and the older ones. Wi'll find out soon. Anyways, it won't matter after I clean up the archive. Now I have to figure oout how to make a cab file.
Hmm...Any updates for this?
I really don't want to mess up my phone by using this.

What "update" are you looking for? All the information you need is right here in the posts.
You won't screw up your phone at all. The app works perfectly fine. I promised to release the final version, but I just haven't had time. Maybe today I'll release an uninstallable version.
Look on top for final release.
Hey man, I tried it and it seems to be not working.
I got the 19.99 T-Mo internet...and well I don't have the T-Mobile Data.
I just have T-Mo WEB for internet and I belive thats the issue.
My internet works and all, I'm Palringo, I can access google maps.
Whenever I try to sync my contacts to my phone it sends me a text message.
can this work for the wing
Man, I would love to use this app, but I have no idea how to make it work with the 19.99 plan.

Hi everyone,
i went to a 3store today to get a TYTN 2 on 3 network UK. I thought we could use the free skype minutes they offer on other handsets, but they said no, use the wifi!!!
I was wondering if anyone knows a way to connect to their skype service. Thanks
PS: Please include links to any software or recent methods you might know.
Hi, I'd also like to know if this possible. Have a 3 PAYG sim and get 30 days free skype when I pay for the internet add-on but cannot work out how to use the 3G network for my calls. Cheers
I think fring will do what you want.
The website says you can make skype calls.
www.fring.com "fring is based on a unique thin-client technology that for the first time enables true VoIP over 3G, GPRS and WiFi networks"
I installed it on my stock rom AT&T Tilt (Kaiser) but have not tested.
I hope that helps.

any java skype client in the uk?

Thanks but i think for that you should have access to the internet. I can easily use the skype program instead. The problem is that skype is not the type of skype 3 network is using ( they use a java based program).
I read an article and someone had used the skype from a LG phones with 3 and Esmertec Jbed, but that was an Australian version. does anyone have a UK version?
This would rock if it is possible! Anyone know where to download a UK version?
I think we need to find someone with a non nokia phone from 3 UK, so he can give us the jar file. preferably LG
What do you think?
anyone from uk? or anyone knows a professional UK website? please
Anyone found this?
Can anyone with a TyTn II from the 3 network confirm if it comes with Planet 3 and Skype software installed?
I use Three...
Ah, you forgot to read the ultra-small fine print that states that the offer for *all* phones has expired and it's now only on *selected* handsets that seem to exclude the TyTN 2, also you can't get the sim-only and install the Three free Skype or Live Messenger on a non-Three phone+rom without some custom ROM hacking.
To make matters worse, if you get the £5 Unlimited Internet Access, the small print is that Three block Skype and Live Messenger so they can't be used (thought I think you can buy the £10 option that allows them?) - even if you want to pay for them outside the unlimited bundle. You can use IM+ BeejiveIM etc, to access Live Messenger though, and as far as I'm aware it seems to be included in the Unlimited access...
Oh, and if you want to access Planet3/My3 on your phone you can do so, but first you need to go into Advanced Config and change your "User Agent Custom Base" to "HTC_TyTN_II Mozilla/4.0" and then use the URL "http://mobile.three.co.uk/837_sc/index.do"
The Planet3/My3 will only work when accessing the page though the 3 connection and not WiFI or ActiveSync, but is acuttaly pritty nifty at checking you accound balance, tops ups, addons and such like.

Thanks a lot for the information you provided. Damn it, I made a big mistake as i could've got the Nokia N95 with Skype and Live Msg + unlimited internet for £5 cheaper every month...!
Hi guys,
This is a solution for the Skype on Three network issue. I had placed it on another forum (http://www.3g.co.uk/3GForum/showthread.php?p=385677) and one guy has reported it working, but apparently, it might not work with WM5, only with WM6. Please give it a whirl and let me know if it works for you.
Feedback is great for both me as well as others
**********************************************************
Annuntio vobis gaudium magnum
(I have great and joyous news)
I believe that I have succeeded in getting the native Iskoot WM6 client for Skype to connect to the Three/3 service. I am still testing it and would appreciate your feedback.
Steps
a) Download and install the Iskoot client for Windows Mobile 6 . Try the direct link here (http://www.iskoot.com/pc_download/Wi...1.54_WMpro.CAB)
b) After installation, start the application, but DO NOT sign in. Instead exit it. The reason for doing this is to create the default registry entries for Iskoot.
c) Now start your favourite registry editor (I personally use Resco Registry Editor, but you should be able to use any. Please do not ask me how to use the registry editor. This is not the appropraite forum.)
d) Head for the following location in the registry: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\ISKOOT\SKYPE\DEVICE
e) Update all the following entries to the same value "http://mobile.three.co.uk/948" (do not include the "double quotes")
BackupHost
CallUrl
DefaultSkHost
Pushhost
f) Exit the registry editor of choice and start and log into Iskoot. This might take some time. It took me about five minutes.
It should now be configured to connect to the 3 Skype service. To cross-verify, check that the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\ISKOOT\SKYPE\DEVICE\Cal lNumber has the value +447838333894 (the 3 Skype dial-out number). It should be automatically added by the software.
As I have mentioned earlier, I am still testing this. However, with this implementation, it should not use your included minutes, but the free Skype allocation. Please test the same and let us all know if that is the case or you have noticed that your inclusive minutes have been used up.
I do not know how to modify cabs. But if somebody can rebuild the original Iskoot cab with these settings built-in, that would be great.
I have noticed that the sound quality on this is considerably better as compared to the Skype Java client.
Legalese: The above is merely advisory and there is no warranty, implied or otherwise, for the same.
**********************************************************
Thanks for the information. I tried it on my Hermes and it worked great.
Unfortunately, when I tried the same thing on my Kaiser, all I ever get is "Currently unable to connect".
I can't see why there would be any difference between the two phones, but the Hermes never fails and the Kaiser never succeeds!
Any suggestions?

SkypeOut is officially supported (if not, very soon) by 3UK,
http://www.skype.com/intl/en-gb/allfeatures/3skypephone/overseascalling/
with some restrictions (read the small print!)
I failed to get Skypein to work, however.
And Skypeout is a bit unstable at the moment, might be 3UK is upgrading their servers...

How do you get the address http://mobile.three.co.uk/948? I am looking for the same thing for three italy, so I cannot use that url. I have Kaiser and a three skypephone, wich include 10 hours per day of free skype call, so I will love to use the iskoot software on Kaiser and lunch outside the windows the Amoi!
Thanks

I think what some people did is to download a java version of the iskoot (for other non-WM phone) and decompiled the java class/jad file and find the URL string. I guess if you can somehow intercept the outgoing network traffic from a 3 customized iskoot client running on another phone (perhaps on a Symbian phone trying to communicate to the server via wifi, which wouldn't connect successfully I believe, but still let you), parse the network packet to find out its intended destination will do the trick too.

Thanks for the tip, but the problem is that the only phone with skype is the amoi 8512 (http://www.3skypephone.com/english/index.html have you ever seen it?) I do not have x-series with skype, but a specific offer wich works only with this phone. This phone does not have wifi, so I cannot sniff packet through network, and the iskoot client is not java, but specifically made for it (when I run it, the Java log does not apper), so I do not know how I could extract the url. The only thing I have done is to get its user agent to replace it on the Tytn II, the Amoi 8512 user agent is " [FONT="]Amoi 8512/R22.0 NF-Browser/3.3[/FONT]" without double quote, of course.

I was in your situation until a week ago when I found the 3 UK setting. It is so frustrating that I knew all it requires is a correct URL address yet I didn't know what it is!
What you may want to try is to first identify which X-series phone that 3 Italy support apart from the skypephone. And then change your Tytn II 's broswer agent string to one of those phone that use a JAVA iskoot client instead of a native client like Symbian client. Then use your phone browser to 3 ITA portal and try to download the iskoot (Skype) software. 3 ITA server should now think that you have a compatible phone so it will present you with the Java client. Once you go the .jar file, you can proceed to extract the URL from there...
I think people used SEW910I to get the 3 Australia client.
Try this for the Browser agent string:
SonyEricssonW910i/R1CA Browser/NetFront/3.4 Profile/MIDP-2.1 Configuration/CLDC-1.1
I tried the above suggestion myself to try to get the URL from 3 UK's client, but I can't remember why I stopped, and then later I found that the URL is already know on some other forums on the Internet...
Good luck!

You are right, it is frustriating knowing I cannot use my Kaiser just because I do not know a simple url!!
I will have a look at this right now. Thanks for your help
I have a local file server accessble via wifi (or should be) its "\\server"
WHEN Wifi is on and connected and I put that in File Manager "\\server", it says cant connect, but if I put that in PIE it goes there.
Anyone have any ideas how I can get this to work? It used to work in WM6.0.
You should try Resco File Explorer; a LOT better for that purpose. I have been in a similar situation in mapping the drive and it works flawlessly. There's a 15 day trial to check it out; think you'll be pretty impressed.
Try "\\servername\sharename"...
try to access a particular share instead of getting the shares list by using the "\\servername" convention...
try something like "\\servername\sharename" and see what happens...
alternately, i highly recommend schap's rip of the HTC Network Plugin v1.0 Build 30468...it will make the steps of accessing commonly used local shares a whole lot easier by allowing you to map the drive into the "\Network" folder on your device...see 4th post in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359458
enjoy!!!
I dont want to buy Resco, but it does work nicely.
\\servername\sharename fails as well and \\servername\sharename\ etc..
I will try the plugin and see. (Update) I instlled it and cant find it anywhere.. How do I "use" it?
Thanks!

Total Commander is free and does this well.
It also has a registry editor, text editor.
Did I mention it is free.
Another thing to check...
maybe your wifi connection is set up in "Internet" mode as opposed to "Work" mode...might explain why it works via PIE...
i think i remember experiencing total failures accessing local shares if my wifi connection was set up as "Internet"
on Settings->Connections->Wifi, edit the particular wifi connection you use and on the first page in the second combo box labeled "Connects to:", make sure the value is "Work"
give that a shot and let us know!!!
That was it!! Thanks! Odd setting really.

woohoo!!! i'm a noob WinMo user as of May 2008 with my Tytn2...coming from 5 years of using something from motorolla that was equivalent to a nokia 3310...totally basic PHONE in the truest sense...no color screen, no camera, big and clunky, pathetic interface...useful ONLY for voice and sms
but my point is that coming from decades of using Windows, somehow WinMo makes sense in a microsoft kind of way with all its occassionally cryptic features and inexplicable odd behaviors...i'm a geek and i'm lovin' it
before this thread is closed, the network plugin is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED...i used to use resco for mapping drives but found its behavior to be erratic when my wifi signal was weak...sometimes taking ages to try to open a share just before the wifi icon would show that the connection had dropped
network plugin, IMHO, seems to work a bit better...YMMV

check in Settings->Connections->Network Plugin
while resco's network drive mapping configuration is accessible only from within resco (even though the shares resco mounts are accessible system-wide in any application whether resco is running or not), the network plugin gives a better "integrated" feeling with WinMo even though it is not much different from resco's capabilities
Got the HTC network plugin working. Now I have 2 ways to access the share.
Hello guys n gals,
I have been searching for an answer to this (google, many times)
I cannot get my ATT Tilit w/6.1 to act as an internet connection for my Laptop.
I disable Activesync, go into the Wmodem program, tell it to start, and my computer sees it as a Palm Treo Modem I have to dial out on. According to the program description, I should be able to use the Phone to just "share" its connection. Is this an issue with 6.1? Is there someting I have to enable that wonderful ATT does not allow me to use?
I thank you all in advance for your help. Like I said i have googled a few times and nothing comes up that helps me. They all point to a program called Internet Sharing, which i dont seem to have on my tilt. I suspect this is done intentionally by ATT but hey, I gotta ask first. Help????????
Google is indeed my friend!!! LMAO!! its 4 am here in NYC and I finally found it. Now forget everything I said above!! I just have to figure out how to pin it to my programs menu or start menu! for that i am asking for your help. I am too tired to do anyore googling tonight, err, today, or whatever it is now.

It's there. The file you are looking for is entitled "intshrui.exe". It is located in the \Windows\ directory of your device. You may need to enable "view all files" for it to be visible. Once it is visible, tap and hold on it. Select copy, and then browse to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs and tap and hold a blank space. Select "Paste Shortcut". After the shortcut is created, tap and hold on it, and rename it to "Internet Connection Sharing", or whatever you so desire. This is the application you will be using to enable ICS between your desktop computer, and telephone. Be sure to use wap.medianet as the access point. isp.cingular will not work if you are only on a Media Net plan. (if you have a dedicated tethering plan, it is fine to use isp.cingular if you so desire).
I don't have the ATT stock ROM on my phone any longer, but in the WModem application, there is a options menu. There is a item labeled "Configure" IIRC. Select this option, and uncheck, "Choose an access point automatically". Change isp.cingular to read wap.cingular, and save it. Restart your device. You should now be able to use your PDA as an internet gateway. Be sure you have installed either ActiveSync or WMDC on your computer. And the awnser to your inquiry regarding ATT doint it on purpose is "Yes". The phone is fully capable of tethering, but ATT wants to charge you $60/mo for the ability to use technology that already exists in your phone.
Other files of interest:
HSDPASwitch.exe
FieldTest.exe
CSDType.exe
Yep, At&t doesn't add the shorcut to ICS on their roms, its in the windows folder.
Also a not of caution, its suggested that you remove the proxy from medianet while you tether. There's stories of people getting caught tethering without the tethering plan and ending up being charged per kb on their bill (leading to a phone bill around and above $1000!).
I always make sure i've disabled the proxy, actually only time its on is to use cellular video, and I've been tethering without the tethering plan for as along as i can remember and never been charged per kb on my bill.
To disable the proxy look for a cab named removehiddenproxy and then go to start settings, connections tab on the bottom, then connections icon. advanced tab on bottom, select networks, tap edit under the first drop down box (MEdia Net should be selected) then proxy settings tab on bottom, and uncheck the second box "This network uses a proxy server to cnnect to the Internet"

Thanks guys for the info, now is it best to search for this cab via active sync on my PC because i don't know where to find the search program on the Kaiser to just search for the cabs and find the "removehiddenproxy" cab......I will find it this way........thanks again for the help....both of you. This beats staying in Hotels and paying for their internet connection!!
