I have the luck to be able to use the internet for free on my Diamond using my company credentials and proxy settings, which is authenticated thru login/pwd.
However, I can only navigate (both Wifi and EDGE/3G) if I use PIE, which seems to allow authenticated proxies.
On the other hand,Opera blocks the proxy (because of authentication I guess), the Youtube application doesn't work and even the Weather tab on the Today screen doesn't manage to download any info.
Is there a way I can work around it? Maybe some registry tweaks??
Please help!!!
I have the same problem.
Is someone have a solution ?
Thank's a lot

I remember while back in the Hermes forum there was talk about the fact that data traffic on t-mobile goes through it's proxy, meaning several things don't work that well.
E.g. Pictures are compressed, VOIP (Skype) cuts out etc.
I also remember people saying that you could set up a proxy server on your home network and then route your traffic through it, effectively tunneling all your traffic through a link that would then bypass the t-mobile proxy.
I've tried searching for details on how to get a setup like this working, in vain. So my questions are:
1) Do I have to set up the VPN on my "work" connection (I think I do, just want to confirm)?
2) What settings on my 3g/HSDPA connection do I need to change (I think there's a special t-mobile proxy server you have to use, rather than the standard one)?
3) Does anyone have experience with VPNs in terms of which ports to forward from a router --> the VPN server.
4) I have a choice between using my main desktop (Vista) and a Ubuntu box (Feisty atm), would one be better than the other to use?
Any other comments/experiences/solutions would be greatly appreciated.

When I enter for example www.msn.com the connection process starts with locating then opening, then white screen ... Looks like I am connected however I do not show the web page. I am able to access Yahoo.com however. I cleared all cookies, did a SR and same problem. This issue happens just recently. The only place where I can see proxy settings is the connection tab, and the proxies are disabled.
Asfoor ......... = Bird .... thus the Avatar...
I tried the WiFi connection off of my home wireless and I am able to connect just fine to any web page. Only when I am on EDGE or GPRS / 3G when the problem happens and I can not connect to any other than Yahoo.com. ... Now MobiTV, XM, Resco radio are all fine. I can connect and fast i might add.
Only the Internet access where the problem exists.
Ok then my bad, try ENABLING the proxy if your on that. haha i knew it meant asfoor, because it's arabic

I think it has to do with the Mediamax plan... but what is confusing is that I am able to access www.yahoo.com and that... anything else renders blank page.
it has nothing to do with media max. i have media max and i can surf any website. try doing this, go to start,setting,connection,connection,advance,select network, choose media net,edit, proxy setting, unchecked the box "this network uses proxy server to connect to the internet". if that doesnt work try using another browser like opera mobile or mini opera. Or do a hard reset

Thanks for the tip about opera Mini. I am using as we speak and it is slick. I am wondering if there is a way to create a short cut directly to Opera instead of going through Java first! can you suggest a way? thanks again.
I need access to a direct ftp port with the http://65988.0023.XXX style connection but I can't get access to it unless I am using WIFI? what setting can I change to stop this?
try disabling the proxy settings, sometimes bypassing your networks proxy settings will open up all sorts of options you where once blocked from accessing
how would I go about that? I didn't know I was behind proxy settings? And do I need them to access medianet?
in your connection settings go to manage existing connection, select proxy settings and untick the box that says this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet and leave the box ticked that says this network connects tothe internet.
Ive disables my proxy settings for t-mobile Uk internet settings and now it connects alot faster and pages seem to be loading faster also
doesn't work... Darn this sux... I test it with www.msn.com and it still makes it pull up msn.mobile... how annyoing...
bump anyone have anything on this?
I would really appreciate help with this because I have to access a program that I can't otherwise.
If you're looking to hit an FTP site, then I'd grab an FTP client for WM and stop futzing with IE in the first place. Or am I misunderstanding what you're doing?
not it is not an ftp it is an http://112.2232.224:2324 type of site... that is all.
Don't know your carrier but here's a cab that disables the "hidden" proxy in AT&T and one that restores it. Worth a try?

YEAAAAAAAAAAA I don't know what happened... but since I installed your thing it works perfect. damn I was getting peaved... when I go to msn.com thought it still brings up msn.mobile though. Well at least I can go to anywebsite I want now.
Do I ever need to put the proxies back? I guess I should just put this on my card just in case.
Again, Thanks... What else am I able to do now?
In the Tilt, Internet Explorer's user agent string is locked to mobile internet, meaning that websites will see your device as a mobile device. If the site has a mobile site, it will automatically re-direct you to that. In WM5 devices, you could use software to change IE's user agent string to make it look like a desktop, but on the Tilt, you can't.
You'll need to get Opera Mobile if you want the internet to see your phone as a desktop.
I think for what your trying to do you need to use the MY ISP settings instead of medianet settings. But I don't know what they are anymore. I think you will also need the right data plan to use them.
does PIEPlus User Agent setting work with Tilt?

Is this true even if using PIEPlus? PIEPlus Tools>Options Plus>User Agent allows setting User Agent to IE 5.5 or IE 6.0 (which should be seen by websites as a regular computer) in addition to the default PIE setting (which is seen as mobile)

what is pie plus. First off, I tried using opera mobile desktop setting and when I went to www.msn.com it still comes up as mobile. Do I have to configure something further?
Lastly, I just told you all that the program for turning off the hidden proxies worked. So for what I was trying to do those programs the other person posted worked nicely. However, it still sucks that I can't bypass the mobile crap... There is a program called deepfish from microsoft that addresses the issue exactly, however the jerks won't let the beta out any further. I am gonna aaddress that issue in another post.
I believe the problem is something in the WM6 or the Tilt itself because Opera doesn't work either.
Boy I'm glad you guys worked on this. I upgraded to Tilt yesterday and was cracking my head against the wall trying to figure out why the HTTP addresses wouldn't resolve with the same settings I've been using in my 8525. @#$%#@ Hidden Proxy! lol
Cheers and Happy New Year!

I am having trouble connecting to m school's wifi. I was able to connect to it with my iPod touch because it allowed me to change port and proxy settings.
I can connect to the network successfuly, but I need to change port and proxy settings to be able to use the internet. Is there any way to change these settings on this phone?
I am running the MoDaCo 1.51 version of hero on my G1
I used my best friend google and found this
http://discuz-android.blogspot.com/2008/01/set-proxy-for-android-web-browser.html
seems pretty inconvenient...worth a try do!
Thanks you so much.
On that website there was a suggestion to use Any Cut. This program has a shortcut for a GUI based proxy setting (Any Cut> New shortcut> Activity> Proxy settings) and it's free unlike the newer Better Cut. I will try this out on Tuesday.
Thanks again
