Dear All,
I am trying to figure out on how to enble VPN PPTP over wifi back to my home router. I see u can setup a VPN connection via GPRS once u have set the network settings in using you phone provider. Once this network is changed to "My ISP" network, the "make a vpn setting" option is gone.
Has anyone setup a vpn connection on HTC diamond successfully over Wi-Fi? If yes, how did u do it?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Raymond
YEs, but under work-network.
I use VPN a lot to my office (exchange), works like a charm, auto connects...

Hello,
does someone use a VPN software on the Kaiser ?
Wich one ?
I tried several but none worked.
My Kaiser is using the built in VPN client, to VPN into two different Microsoft RRAS networks using PPTP and IPSec/L2TP.
What problems are you experiencing? What type of networks are you trying to VPN into?
Thanks a lot for your answer !
I didn't know the Kaiser had a VPN client included ...
Where is the application ? What's its name ?
Is there a documentation I can find somewhere to help me to configure it ?
The other thing is that I use a SecurID password to connect to my corporate network, I don't know if this can work also with the Kaiser VPN.
In fact I would like to connect to my corporate network wich accepts both IPSec/UDP and IPSec/TCP. All I know is that I need a Cisco compatible VPN application.
I tried "AnthaVPN", it connects to our Cisco server, but then it disconnects after a few "Time Out" errors.
Thanks again for your help !
I would be interested in this too... we use Cisco at work using Cisco ipsec/udp but no idea how to set this up on the phone
Finally I've found how to use the buit in VPN, but it still does not work for me, because of the SecurID password I think (it says my login/password may be incorrect).
Here is how to access to the built in VPN (my device is french, I translate it to english but I'm not sure the names will be the same on english devices):
parameters/connections -> choose the "Connections" icon.
Then choose "Modify/Configure my VPN servers"
After you filled everything there, choose "Manage existing connections".
At the bottom of the screen, choose "VPN". The VPN connection you made should appear here.
Put your stylus on it until the options "delete" and "connect to" appears.
Select "connect to" and then you should be connected to your network.
I hope this helped.
So finally, I am still searching for a VPN application wich would work with SECURID passwords.
Does someone know one ?
Cisco VPN Help Required
Even my office uses a Cisco PIX Firewall with VPN. Even i have tried many softwares, but nothing seems to work. I thik it is because of the 2 phase authentication of the Cisco VPN.
Also just for info, we use IPSec over UDP (NAT/PAT)
How to set this up in my KAISER?
Hello to all
Im using AnthaVPN and it's work great with Cisco VPN Concentrator System in my KAISER. There must be also a way to connect to a pix.

Like I said, I tried this one, but it did not work with SecurID keys.
I also had a problem with it related to the WIFI :
when I tried to use it with WIFI enabled, if I wanted then to disable the WIFI, it was impossible, even after a soft reset. I had to deinstall AnthaVPN to be able to disable the WIFI.
So finally I think the built-in VPN is better than AnthaVPN because I had no WIFI issue with it.
I have read the manual from the Homepage AnthaVPN and for me its OK. But i haven't testet over wifi. Over GPRS works great.
i'm using the Bluefire VPN CLient (www.bluefiresecurity.com) to connect to my university's vpn (cisco) and it's working great.
with AnthaVPN i was not able to disconnect wifi anymore (phone would hang up -> soft reset -> wifi on again), don't know if they fixed this till now
So I was not alone to have wifi problems with AnthaVPN !
Finally I tried Bluefire VPN, it works a lot better than AnthaVPN (no more wifi problems !), I can go upto the SecurID login, but after that, at "Phase 2", I have an error code talking about IPSec parameters...
So I still have problems but now I know that Bluefire is working with securid keys.
Hello,
I have no problem connecting to my VPN using PPTP over both WiFi and 3G.
The problem I am having is that when I use the 3G connection and VPN http requests are not routed through the VPN connection. When using the WiFi connection everything works as expected and http request are routed to my corporate network.
Now, I have set up the URL exceptions and think that I've done everything else I am supposed to (but obviously not). Does ANYONE know which registry settings need to be tweaked to force all traffic (or even just http) to use the VPN when connected to 3G?
Thanks in advance, Maxim.
i have a problem with my htc Tytn 2. i have setup my internet connections via gprs in ISP panel. i have setup my vpn connection to my workplace. everything works fine(i am able to connect remotely to my servers). But when i try to open internet explorer my VPN connection automaticaly get disconnected. anyone has any idea how to fix this problem??
Thank you
Hi all,
Got a stange issue. I have the MDAcIV (basically a diamond) on the UK T-Mobile contract.
I've setup my Gmail account to send/retrieve and over wifi it works perfectly, however if I disable my wifi connection, I expect the email to sync over GPRS, but I keep getting a sync error saying check your connections etc.
Anyway checked all my connections and it works fine over GPRS in browser, weather, and any other app requiring internet connection, just not email.
Gone through the email settings and under advanced server settings, under Network Connection it's set to "The Internet".
If I change this to "T-Mobile Internet", and then try to sync with wifi OFF, the GPRS kicks in and starts syncing.
I then stopped the GPRS connection, switched on wifi, and tried to sync again, but instead of using the connected wifi, it starts a GPRS connection.
Strange!
So in summary:
Network Connection: The Internet
WiFi OFF
GPRS ON
Sync fails over GPRS
Network Connection: T-Mobile Internet
WiFi ON
GPRS OFF
Syncs over GPRS instead of existing wifi connection
Anyone else have similar experience?
Thanks
I got a similar one:
I'm using Active Sync via HSDPA/GPRS to get my mails pushed (Exchange 2007 Server). Works like a charm and never have problems with it; used it for years with other WiMo devices.
Now, since I have my diamond (MDAc4 also) I can finally use WiFi, too. What I now experience is:
When I turn on Wifi, my cellular connection (HSDPA) stays active and when I turn it off manually via the comm manager it also turns off "PushMail" in comm manager. That basically sets active sync to "manual" instead of "when items arrive".
Though I am able to turn on push mail in comm manager again, as soon as an email arrives it starts to connect HSDPA again.
So basically I can not use wifi to save some MB of my data plan when I want to continue to get my emails. And this really sucks...
Only thing I can set up in the advanced connections in Active Sync is "Connection" where my only option is "Internet" -.- Meaning I can not differ between cellular and wifi. It kinda has to use the cellular connection...
long story short, dunno if that helps you with your problem now, sorry; but if anyone understands what I am talking about right here, maybe send me a pm or something, if you know how to fix that.

Definitely had this happen a fair few times, with the gprs failing to connect once or twice, and I've seen it on most of the roms.
I think WM doesn't set it's connection type correctly, so we don't get the seamless "use the best/cheapest/fastest connection available"
In fact, anyone know of any app that would just do that? As in try to connect to unsecured or secured wifi, followed by 3G/HSDPA, followed by GPRS?

I have exactly the same problem. If I want to get my e-mail the account setting has to be "T-Mobile Internet" unless I'm using wi-fi in which case I have to switch it to be "The Internet". Anyone know of a solution?
Is it possible that T-mobile are forcing you to use your Data connection rather than free Wifi ?
Hmmm nerf maybe?

Thanks for the reply. It could be but the phone doesn't even attempt to connect to mobile data it just pops up an error to say it can't connect with the existing data settings. Its not a T-mobile supplied handset although it did configure itself to use T-Mobile when I first put the SIM in.
Solution
After research and research I´ve finally found a solution. I´ll post some pictures of my settings so you can see yourself what you have to do.
The clou is to have only 1 connection for Wifi and GPRS/3G. WM now firstly checks if there is a Wifi connection and if not, it will connect to GPRS.
Got It
Just untick the box that says "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet" in the manage t-mobile Internet connections app.
Now works over Wifi if available, if not uses GPRS/3G
Hi,
I have ADSL modem, and I am trying to connect to the modem (via WiFi) and use internet on my HTC VIVA.
My internet connection requires authentication in order to connect. I can successfully connect to modem using Wifi connection. In order to connection to Internet, I added new VPN server from settings > Connections > Edit my VPN servers. I added all the credentials as provided by my ISP, however I am not able to connect to internet and access web pages from the Internet explorer of my device.
Please help me and let me know where I am going wrong?
Thanks,
You don't have to set your authentication data in your Viva.
All you need to do is connect to your ADSL modem using WiFi and start browsing the web. It should work correctly unless your ISP requires a proxy server.
Tell us what happens.
Hi GFX,
Thanks for replying. I connected to ADSL using WiFi, but when I open Internet explorer I get page not found.
When I was in US, I was able to access Internet as per your reply. But now I am in India and I am not able to access Internet.
Some of the differences that might help you or any other who would like to contribute
USA India
====== =======
ISP Comcast BSNL
Authentication WPA2-PSK Open
Data Encryption AES WEP
Thanks,
I'm not sure what's causing this.
Probably your ISP requires a proxy server. Can you connect to the internet using your PC??
The other thing is, your ISP has nothing to do with your ADSL modem authentication and data encryption modes! You can set these settings manually according to your personal needs. Read your ADSL modem user manual for more information.
A WPA2 authentication is recommended so you can protect your modem & internet connection from outsiders and hackers.
Check your ISP's website to see if they require a proxy server. And tell us about your ADSL modem brand and model so we can help you.
My ISP does not require proxy server, and I can connect to Internet using my PC. I am able to connect to my ADSL modem but somehow I am not able to connect to Internet.
Following are the details of my ADSL modem
Brand: Huawei
Model: WA1003A
Its an ADSL router.
Thanks,
OK, please check the following settings in your device:
1- Goto Start-> Settings -> Connections -> Connections-> Advanced tab-> tap on "Select Networks", and check that the first dropdown menu says "My ISP".
2- Goto Start-> Settings -> Connections -> Wi-Fi -> Network Adapters tab, and check that the first dropdown menu says "The Internet".
If you made any changes to the above settings, try to reconnect to the modem once again, it may work this time.
However, if you left the above settings unchanged then your problem lies somewhere else. Check if you can access the internet using Opera Mini, or try connecting to another router. Because we need to determine the source of the problem.
Good luck.
have you simply tried connecting via wifi with default settings?
when you switch on wifi, once the network is detected, you can feed in the values then right? sorry if this seems like a stupid answer but we often miss whats right under our noses,
Sorry for replying so late, was busy with lots of work for some time.
GFX: My connection settings are same as you mentioned. But even with these settings in place, no success.
karthiksk: I get connected to WiFi network, but after this I don't get any popup box in my device to enter the details.
Guys, however I got the solution, since my network uses PPoE, I had to configure these settings in my Modem. Earlier I was entering ISP credentials in an external PPPoE client on my PC, this way I can access Internet with only one PC at a time and WiFi was also not working.
I entered ISP credentials in my modem and configured PPoE settings. Now I can connect my PC (using Ethernet cable), my laptop using WiFi and my HTC device using WiFi at the same time.
Thank you all for helping me in trying to resolve this issue.
Good to see your problem solved.
Turns out it has nothing to do with your device!
Enjoy your Viva, it's a wonderful device.

Dear Vijay,
I am facing the same problem to connect my E61 handset to BSNL Huwaei modem. Can you give me the steps to configure the same.
I can connect to the modem, just let me know what configuration changes are to be made to enable access from mobile phone.

This is a Windows Mobile and HTC VIVA forum, it is highly unlikely that you will get your solution here. and it is unsafe to post you mobile number.
I'm facing the same problem..it's not the ISP or modem..it's only & only viva...
It sucks badly...I purchased two different modem router..one of netgaer and other one of linksys...and the didn't work on both of them...wifi only works with the modem ZTE ZXDSL 531B
**** off viva...
