cant browse internet through activesync

I have the latest activesync but I cant connect to the internet through pie anymore. I heard there was a reg hack for this but cant find it.
Wifi works fine, but I want it to update my pocketweather whilst its sync'ing other stuff.

when i am at home i have to put my connections on My Isp.. when i am at work due to the firewall i have to use Work Network.. and i can surf just fine through activesync

Depending on what ROM you have, check if it has a proxy setting in your Connections tab.

latest tmobile rom.
has proxy settings, but not set, shouldn't need to.
so no one else has a problem with the latest activesync?

I'm on T-Mobile USA and i'm not having any problems with ActiveSync (Version 4.2) and T-Mobile's latest 2.26 ROM.
Can you post more information about your setup, both PC and MDA? As it could be a configuration issue.

Activesync works fine, syncs all my stuff no probs. Just cant use the internet.
I thought you could just open pie and it would automatically connect?

Can't get to internet using activesync
I can sync, but cannot update pocketweather. Any ideas?

Same problem, internet doesn't work for me at all.
Gosh dunno why I'm having such a hard time with the internet working. On my first 8125 everything went fine, internet work with activesync and wi-fi without setting anything. But now I can't seem to get them to work at all with 2 newer 8125. Try Mr. Clean rom, Molski, summitter, format my computer. None was able to get my internet back? Can anyone tell me what setting did they put inorder to get thier internet thur activiesync and wi-fi.....thou I thought it should just automatically be the same as my comp ADSL ....like before, plug and away I can update weathers and surf net?
Anyone out there, got there internet working smoothly like I had in the first time?

might have the answer, worked for me.
Okay for anyone that is having problems with Internet working thur Activesync, you can try to go into start, setting, connections, usb to pc and uncheck enable advanced network functionality.
And it work for me, yahooooooooooo....

But what about eMail?
I have my TMO MDA set up for a Comcast eMail account. When I go GPRS, the eMail works fine.
But when I use Activesynch and my USB cable, I get "Cannot connect with current connection settings...."
Also, is there ANY way to have eMail give me the full message the first time, rather than requiring be me to click on the full message and reconnect?

I've been having the sync without passthrough for about 2 months now.
Great. When I try to go into "USB To PC" the application basically crashes. Does anyone know the registry edit that would be needed to disable advanced network functionality?

thanks!
I've had a sync issue and the issue where passthrough internet didn't work for 2 months. This little change fixed both.
Thanks.

Also check Active sync, File -> Connection settings -> this computer is connected to: -> The Internet.
This did the trick for me, now it's updating perfectly.

Problem: Skype do not initiate a GPRS connection!

Hi there,
I got a problem which I would like to share with you. When using skype with a GPRS conn, the program do not initiate a connection. If it is using WiFi, then it works with no problems. If I have initiated a GPRS conn with some other program, i.e. browsing with my opera browser, then skype connects with no problems to the allready initiated GPRS conn. What can cause this?
Thanks in advance.

skype over gprs?
would this even work, skype needs a broadband speed connection to work and skype do not support calls over gprs, maybe this is why

Skype will only work over wifi or 3G, it will not work over GPRS.

3G or HSPDA - just the same. Skype do not initiate any conn. To be able to log in I must, at first, start a browser, open a page, keep the conn alive and then to log in with Skype

When you first ran it, did you set it to only connect on WiFi?
Log into Skype, then go to Menu > Settings
Scroll down to Connection
In Connection Method, does it say WiFi and 3G, or Use Wifi only?
If connected using WiFi only is selected, it may refuse to initiate a 3G connection, but will happily use on if its already active.

Yes, I have selected both WiFi and 3G and I see the screen warning me that Skype is going to use a 3G conn. The problem is that Skype do not initiate any conn, just use any if it is already initiated. WiFi conn is switched on manually by the user, not Skype. Same is with 3G - it must be initiated previously from some other program and Skype just uses it. Further more, if 3G conn is closed while using SKype, then Skype can not initiate it again. All this is too strange for me. I uninstalled Skype, deleted all files connected with it, checked registry for strings that might be in use from Skype, then installed it again and nothing changed. I have no other installed programs for handling internet connections, just those that come built in with my PPC.

I had this problem with another program that wouldn't initiate the connection. I checked my connection settings, and it was set to automatically dial MEdia Net (since i use AT&T) and I switched it to automatically dial My ISP GPRS and ever since, my programs have been dialing fine.

hey man i had the same issues i went in to conection settings and changed them to media net becouse thats what i use thats in conections then conections advanced select networks i also disabled my proxy in conections 2 and it worked for me dont know witch one of those did it for me but that should get you in the right direction

Yeah, you have to select media net as default, and disable the proxy.
The proxy is the one that's preventing you from connecting. Other programs figure it out but some don't bother and can't connect.

hey sorry if i'm hijacking ur thread but
I was curious if anyone knows about this. I'm not using a 3g connection as well. My skype gives me the option of using a "cellular" connection, but it doesn't show it connecting to my edge or gprs. I was curious as to whether anyone know if it's edge or gprs? (trying to find out if it's using minutes or whatever.. a connection besides edge n grps)
Thanks for your time

I want it to use WiFi as default when available

Hi, I got my TyTNII (kaiser) on saturday and have just managed to sort out the wireless client at work.
I don't get free bandwidth from Orange so don't really want to be using my Orange web connection when I am actually connected to wifi at work. How can i set my phone to use wireless when it is connected rather than trying to open even more connections? Its really annoying as it keeps checking my email accounts and using HSDPA to do so.

Internet Explorer wont even use the Wifi
what use is a phone with wifi if it wont actually use the wifi to access the internet?
Could someone point me at the settings. There must be a setting somewhere to get it to use the connection!

I have had no problem using WiFi with IE or any other browser. I always connect to my router via Comm Manager first (enable WiFi) and then open IE or another browser and surf the net.

Just click on the network card tab when setting up wifi and make sure that the card is set to connect to "the internet".
Your device will use a valid wifi connection if its available (before trying gprs/3g)

You may also try installing a CAB called "NoData" or "KasierTweak" that will allow you to temporarily disable data services other than your Wifi. This is what I use since I am not on a data plan (yet) with AT&T.

ah yeah - just found this - it was set to 'work' simply because its my connection at work. obviously WM counts that has being different to 'the internet'
seems okay now.
Thanks for the help

If you have an active wireless connection, it will automatically use that connection instead of your data connection regardless.

Wireless ON & GPRS keep connecting

Hi,
I have a problem with the GPRS and Wireless connection. I am using Windows Live mail and and set it up so it is manually synchronized! Same with other mail accounts.
But, every time I connect to the internet using wireless and then press Send/Recieve, it keeps opening GPRS and use it to retrieve new e-mails and ignores my wireless connection!!! Which is really annoying.
How do I fix that?

I have exactly the same... but then with internet sharing with my laptop... keeps using my gprs/3g instead off the wifi that is 100 times faster.

annoying
and it is really annoying as you said, it is much faster with wifi and for people like me where I do not have monthly GPRS data included, it's really annoying and costs a lot.
Earlier, I had my e-mail to automatically download new emails daily and suddenly, I got a huge phone bill because of that problem!! So, e-mails are downloaded manually now until I fix the problem!!

You can find the answer here:

Newer Windows Live always tries to connect using your default Internet Connection even when you are already online. To solve this, you need to go to:
Start->Settings->Connections->Advanced->Select Networks. Change everything to My Work Network.
With this, Windows Live won't try to connect when you have active internet connection. The problem now is, if you have no active internet connection, it will force your device to connect to your gprs/3g but will fail to work. You will need to reset the setting above to your gprs/3g connection.

yes but
Yes but chaning preferences for my network would result in not having my mms working, or gprs when I need it?
However, I have to go back to settings and change everything again to get things to work!!!! I would rather have a solution than a workaround

not working

I tried your solution but the phone tries to connect using MMS connection and of course windows live mail fails to download emails even though my wifi is on and connected!! It just ignores the wifi??

Have you tried NoDATA with HTC Diamond with WM6.1?? NoData seems to be an old cab file for older versions of WM?

RQ: How to stop GPRS / How to activate ActiveSync again ?

Hello.I'm looking for a program which have to stop totally GPRS using.There are many programs which use GPRS by default and GPRS costs me a fortune.Is there a program which turns off GPRS entirely ?
Thank you
Sorry for my english,Im still studying it.

I've found a program,but I can't try it.After I removed WMWiFiRouter everytime when I connect the phone to the PC it recognizes it as Windows Mobile based Internet Sharing Device and ActiveSync can't connect to the phone.And the phone no more shows me the menu to choose if I want to connect to the PC through ActiveSync or (I forgot the other) and it appears Internet Sharing program.Help.

Can tell me how to restore my previous type of connection? Thank you in advance.

There is a program called nodata that will allow you to select and disable your GPRS connection. I haven't used it, but it seems to be pretty popular.

Thank you,but I have this program already,as I have written.I'm looking for a solution of the other problem that I've described previously in the topic.
Edit: I don't know exactly what I've done but I fixed it.

I've the same problem (getting no active sync anymore but internet sharing device) so maybe anybody knows how to solve it?

why don't you guys try kaiser tweak, i believe it's got some options for disabling and enabling gprs and activesync. http://www.jongma.org/KaiserTweak/

I've solved it. on my phone at least: i activated the internet sharing via bluetooth, connected, dosconencted. set it to usb and connected and disconnected again and after that active sync worked again....
but thanks for the tool, i'll try that out, too. (maybe there are some other interesting things, too ;-) )

Connecting and disconnecting worked for me too
