The way my home network is set up (dhcp turned off on the wireless router) I need to specify a static ip on my phone. But there are so many of them that include WAN as part of there name I don't know which one is in use for the WLAN. Any advice appreciated

For anyone else goto Comm Manager/Settings/Wireless LAN/change network/ Network Adapters/IEE 802.11 b/g Compatible/ Set ip and default gateway. Then /Name Servers/DNS and alt DNS (get these from gateway pc by going to a dos box and typing ipconfig /all)

Hi,
I'm having problems with the configuration of the WIFI lan. I need to configure an IP Adress because the network does't support DHCP.
I need help with that. Does anyone knows how to do that? Or the 2020i only conects to networks with DHCP?
TIA
Joao
Under Settings go to the Connections tab and tap on Network Cards. Select the Wireless Ethernet (2nd from the bottom on my Qtek 2020i) and select the "Use specific IP adress" option. Enter your own addresses and then modify the DNS addresses on the next tab.
Et voila ..
The second adapter that i have in my 2020i is L2TP NDISWAN Miniport. Is this the correct on? I have the option "My network card connects to:" set to The Internet. Is this correct? Or should I connect to Work? I don't understand the diference between this two concepts...
Thanks
On my Alpine, it's the tiacxlwn compatible wireless ethernet adaptor. The difference between 'Work' and 'Internet' is that if you connect via Work, you can define a proxy server (which is what I have to do when I connect via my University's wifi, as we're proxied through an authenticating proxy server) - Internet just tries to connect straight to the Internet, and won't allow you to define a proxy.
I heard that you can access you Linksys router using your phone as long as you are connected to you wireless network and have web access. I have been unable to get this to work... Any ideas anyone?
Same way you would for anything, has nothing to do with the Tilt... If you're doing it from the internet, you have to turn on something which is likely called "Remote Administration" or something similar and access your internet IP address in a browser.
From the wireless network itself, just go to the router's IP address in your browser.
if you are at home and connected to your router via wi-fi just open your browser and in the address bar type in 192.168.1.1 (usually the default address for linksys router, otherwise look up correct address for your model). you will be prompted for user ID and password default admin:admin. this is the same way you access your router from your PC. it is also possible to access your wireless router at home when you are away by just using media net (or whoever your carrier is' data connection.) just like khaytsus says, you need to first turn on remote access while connected to your router from home.
I can connect my WLAN at home without problems. But a DHCP server is running there.
At work I have WLAN to but without DHCP server so I need to set a static IP.
So how can I set dynamic IP for WLAN at home and static IP for WLAN at work?
On Wifi settings first card I can see both WLAN (home and work). I habe tried to set "home" on "internet" and "work" on "firm" (network device setting).
On the second card I can select "internet" and "firm" as network devices. For "internet" I have selected "dynamic IP" and for "firm" it is "static IP" with the right addresses.
But if I want to connect the WLAN at work I cant get a connection. And I cant see the static IP set on network device (it shows 0.0.0.0 every time).
Any help? Have nothing found at manual und nothing here with search.
Thx & regards,
Purzel
Same here.
I have to set up a manual wlan (IP and DNS). How?
TNX
any news ?
You cannot set Static or Dynamic DNS per connection.
The WiFi adapter is either running in DHCP mode, or static IP mode.
you'll have to change it every time you connect.
When yopu went into the network card while set to internet, you set it to dynamic.
when you then went into it while set to work, you set it to static.
when you set it back to internet, it stayed at static as that was the last change you made.
there may be some third party stuff out there that will allow you to do what you want, but i don't know of any of the top of my head as i've never had to use any.
Hi.
I have a question to the network adapter settings.
At home i use a static ip to connect to WLAN. But if i try to connect to the internet via GPRS-Connection, it failed. When i set the network adapter to dynamic ip, the GPRS-Connection works. Is it right, that the GPRS-Connection use the same network adapter that i use for the WiFi ?!
Perhaps i only must change the settings and everthing is good
thx

There is currently no way to set a Static IP address in Windows Phone 7, you'll have to wait for an update to come out that allows this.

You shouldn't need to manually configure your IP for the phone, the router will most likely assign your phone one if your DHCP is enabled (default on most routers). If you are wanting to connect it to your current home network and you have a wireless router, first you will need to go into the router configuration and set it to broadcast your SSID (if not already enabled). At this time the HD7 cannot connect to hidden networks (I don't see a point in hiding your SSID anyway, use better encryption, and a strong password with numbers, letters[upper and lower case], and symbols[if supported]). You can then use you HD7 to connect to your home network, once connected to your network go back into the router and look at your network. It should list all the devices currently connected to the network along with their currently assigned IP addresses. If you really need to, now that you know what IP address your router has assigned to your phone you can set your router to give your phone a static IP but really as long as you leave the router broadcasting the SSID your phone should have no problem connecting to the WiFi it should save the key and SSID, and it will get a new IP at regular intervals.

i have an adsl modem that connect to pc through the router,my modem has an IP and my router has another one,my phone get the router IP for Gateway,so i cant reach Internet in my phone,i need to change gateway of my phone to reach to internet and i dont know how to do that
My desktop LAN and wifi are different network. My office network is 192.168.1.x and wifi router WAN IP is 192.168.1.254 and wifi router LAN network is 192.168.15.x
My Note connects to wifi router and gets 192.168.15.2. I got wifi router configured to give static DHCP IP to my phone and it always gets 192.168.15.2. I then added port mapping to forward TCP port 8080 to this IP.
So when I run Kies Air, it displays URL http://192.168.15.2:8080
and from my desktop I type http://192.168.1.254:8080 and IT DOES NOT WORK. As soon as I hit go, URL gets forwarded to http://192.168.1.254:8080/www/index.html (blank screen) which means browser did reach Kies Air service but then nothing goes further.
I had done similar port mapping with other similar kind of apps (AirDroid, LazyDroid App Desktop, Motorola's similar app) and it always used to work.
Laptops in the same n/w (i.e., 15.x) are able to connect to Kies Air without any issue. My wifi router is DLink DIR 655. Any clues?
disable DHCP from your wifi router and let all devices get their IP from your original router. that way, you will be in the same IP range.
Thanks for the reply. Yes that is one solution to set wifi router in AP mode. But problem is we don't have master dhcp server leasing out 198.168.1.x IPs. All desktop are given static IP and there is firewall deciding who is given access to where and to do what.
