I am really struggling to get Network access on my Vario III.
I have connected to the LAN via wifi and that all works and I am connected etc but I can not open a server such as
\\192.168.1.xxx\ in file explorer and when I downloaded the trial of Resco Explorer I just got nothing in the network tab.
I have a Linux file server, an XP machine and a Vista machine which all have shared folders. I am not using a domain just workgroups so I don't believe it is the problem of connecting to a domain controller (the XP machine is XP Home anyway so there is no domain type stuff there...)
Try this.
In PocketIE type in
File://<machinename>/
and see how it goes.

think it ties to escape char so end up with
file://\\machine\
which it can't find
i have not figured this out either. I just assumed it was something to do with my workgroups not being the windows default Workgroup.
I don't think you can browse the network on a PPC. I have tried with a number of devices over the years (WinCE 2.11, WM2003, WM5) and never had any success. I don't think they included that network protocol in CE.
It does work fine.
Try Vnet browser...
Works fine with Resco Explorer > My Network
No need to setup up work groups. Just browse through "Computers near me" and map the drive.
I have tried with Vista and Xp over Wifi
BTW: if I browse for computers while on EDGE/3G
I am having a problem with logmein from my phone.
a bit of a background.
I'm loggin into a Windows XP machine.
I have the logmein free account.
I can use a PC and it logs me in just fine.
It works on my account from my friends Sprint Mogul PPC just fine with WM6 and ractre cab
No matter what ROM on my Kaiser, it gets the same error
No matter what browser I use on my Kaiser, it gets the same error.
The problem. I have the cab installed already that I DLd from logmein.com. I go to logmein.com and type in my login info/pass. I click "logmein".
about 1 in (5-50) times it will then take me to the screen where I can select my computer. The other 4-49 times, it takes me back to the login screen where you enter your login info. There arent any error messages or anything. I then click "back" in PIE and hit the submit button again. repeat this a ton of times until it logs me in.
The next screen is where you select your computer. The same thing happens here, and it will bring me to the login screen. Click back and submit again and million times and eventually it will work.
Once I get to the screen where you can click "Remote control" this works fine.
I've asked on logmeins forums and no responses. I emailed their tech support and no responses.
I dont know what to do at this point except move to different software.
any ideas?
I assumed you did a serach for Logmein?

Yes. and I assume you read the part where i've already installed that?
it works for me after....
running the disable cingular proxy cab.
I used to get the exact issue you have on my Tilt. Here's what I've found to work.
Run the disable Cingular Proxy cab (search around, its everywhere in these forums) PRIOR to entering your username/pass.
If i have done this, it will go the 1st and every time to the my computers list and then i can RC from there.
If i forget to run it and i hit "the loop", you can leave IE running and run the cab from a file explorer, then switch back to IE and try again.
Annoying, i know...this coupled with the need to use IE rather than Opera Mini are definite cons to using Logmein on WinMo, but I still need to almost everyday.
Let me know if you can't get this solution to work for you.
I tried that and it didnt work.
Downloaded disable cingular proxy cab.
rebooted.
ran disable cing proxy cab
ran PIE
went to logmein.com
logged in (that part went fine)
clicked on computer.
it took me to login page.
rebooted
ran pie
ran disable cing proxy cab
went to logmein
tried loggin in.
looped =/
Nobody has a good answer for this that I have been able to find. You can try loggin in on LogMeIn's PDA site, https://secure.logmein.com/pda That stopped the endless log in loop problem for me, and I can get to my computer groups. However, I can't remotely control anything. I click the computer I want, enter the password, and it brings up a screen with whatever options that computer has (just Remote Control for LogMeIn Free, Remote Control and File Manager for LogMeIn Pro.) You click Remote Control, and it doesn't do anything, just brings you right back to the same screen. File Manger DOES work on the computer I have LogMeIn Pro on, but I really need the Remote Control. It is maddening, nobody at LogMeIn or any other phone forums seems to know why this is happening. I never had the proxy setup to begin with, everybody keeps talking about proxies like that's the problem, but disabling the proxies doesn't solve the problem for a huge number of folks. I've been able to find solutions to all my other Tilt problems with a little diligent googling, but not this one. I'd love an answer myself!
sorry...
sorry guys..
I have tried almost every kaiser rom here, and at least half of the wizard ones when i had that and the logmein has been a thorn in my side as well, except for me the toggle of disable/enable proxies works every time.
I wish you both luck in your searches for a more universal answer to this problem.
the real key is a fully supported solution from logmein...
Are you using PIE Plus or another multi tab browsing utility? The happens to me with PIE Plus, but only if I select Pocket View in the view settings.
i gots it 2 work!
i am using
Kaiser/TILT
w/ Duttys DualTouch V3 Final(WM6)
AT&T Service
@ 1st logmein wouldnt work
but i was trying to use it w/ Opera
it only works w/ internet explorer.
people said it does not work w/ WM6
that is false.
it looped continuously w/ that loggin crap until
i did the following.
TO GET IT TO WORK:
uninstall RACtrlCE.cab if already installed.
clear IE cookies.
soft reset
download the RACtrlCE
on your PC via
this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1828858#post1828858
the cab is in the above post link scroll to find it.
transfer the cab via
exchange connection.
install cab on your phone.
then soft reset.
go to www.logmein.com
which should automatically redirect
you to https://secure.logmein.com/pda.
log in and u should b in business!
Okay, I post a question in this thread & what happens????
Now everytime I log into Logmein.com I connect fine but about every five minutes I lose the connection & get an "Invalid IP Address" error. Anyone have this problem? I tried adding my own IP but then I can't connect period. Anyone know a fix?

Followed these exact steps. still loops for me X 1000
I tried installing to device, then my storage card, repeating all steps.
The odd thing is that I downloaded minimozilla (mobile firefox) and it logs in JUST FINE) but of course stops at the point where it would show you the desktop. but has ZERO issues loggin in.
*SIGH*
Anyword on a fix for Mismatched IP Address error?
i dont have anything on the mismatched ip thing.
I did manage to solve my problem on my own.
So anyone else still having this problem:
start|settings|connections|connections|Advanced Tab|Select Networks
In the top drop down, select the tab for the internet that you use (Medianet, etc)
Click edit.
Bottom tab click proxy settings.
Uncheck "this network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet"
Click ok.
The cab that is supposed to do this didnt work for me. but doing this manually works for me.
Working perfect on Blackstone with the cab downloaded from logmein.com with Internet explorer.Not working in Opera.
My steps:Opened https://secure.logmein.com/pda from IE, logged in to my account,then when i pressed connect logmein forced me download THEIR RACtrice .cab ,installed,restarted IE,and i'm in bussiness.
I've had no issue getting to shares on my network with my Tilt until recently. I've flashed Dutty's WM6.1 RTM ROM and everything I've been using has worked well, except that the File Explorer cannot connect to any of my shares. When I input the path, it pops the bubble up pointing at the wifi icon stating "Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your connection setting, tap Settings."
Now, in TCPMP and Core Player, I can browse my shares just fine. It asks for a name and password even though I don't use one for my desktop, so I pop in my user name with no password and it shows the shares. File Explorer STILL refuses to do anything but change my settings. I can browse the internet over wifi and stream music/video, but not copy files.
I use a fixed IP's on the network, and there's no domain controller, just a workgroup.
Did I miss something?
Easy Answer

Ok chap, you might want to have a look at this program its what ive always used then it makes the mapped files ok with every program as it uses an internal location
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-network-folder-plugin-v1-0.html
Yes, that plugin comes with the ROM. However, I would prefer not to have to map a drive just to access shares. File Explorer has the capability and has worked fine in the past. Has no one encountered this strange error before?
Is it possible to allow the X1i internet access through a PC that has a connection to the internet itself?
I've been googling but was unable to find an answer Tried ICS but it didn't want to work. Any tips appreciated!

This has been asked, discussed and answered before.
May I suggest you to search previous threads titles to find ample details about this
BTW: YES it works a treat and it's worth (at least for me)
I can share my 3600kbps HSDPA internet to my laptop and my PC by just plugging the USB cable or thru WiFi
All you need is activesync and launch the "internet sharing" program

That's the other way around from what he wants, from what I understand he wants to share from PC to phone. You need to check "enable advanced network functionality" on the phone, and configure ActiveSync to share the connection, forgot which part of the AS UI it's in (I've been using Vista for too long, and Vista does this by default)
Um...yeah, my xperia does this automatically. I have not configured anything either on the phone, or on the pc itself. I have customized all the programs that need internet updates (like weather, rss feeds etc.) to update themselves when the phone is connected to the pc. Works like a treat and it doesn't matter if it's activesync or simple usb data connection.

Leddy thank you. The "enable advanced network functionality" on the phone was already checked, but I still could not find the desktop pass-through option in my ActiveSync 4.5 software on the desktop.
I did not give up though and I've finally got mine working - so for those who experience the same issue, this is what I did:
1. Open Registry Editor on your desktop (Start/Run and type "regedit") and locate the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services.
2. Right-click on the value list and choose New/DWORD value. Type the name "AllowLSP" and leave the value zero. Disconnect and connect your device and programs on your phone will now have internet access.
This worked well for me. Another possibility that I haven't tested is because I set my "Computer is connected to the Internet" as illustrated here:
http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2006/11/20/wmdc-activesync-pass-through-feature.aspx
Thanks guys!
I think it needs set up proxy setting on PDA and install proxyserver soft on PC...
thank you for the sharing... will try....
Internet by Activesync
Also, If you PC is running a firewall, you might need to 'allow' activesync in the firewall settings.

I've been using ES File Explorer to transfer files via WiFi to and from the Windows shares in my LAN. This method works flawlessly, but I would prefer to connect my Captivate to the USB charger and access the Internal/External Storage cards from any Windows desktop in my house and use the Windows File Explorer to transfer files to/from the Captivate.
I found and app in the Market called On Air (WiFi Disk) that is supposed to act as a WebDAV server, but I have been unable to get it to work. My understanding was (someone correct me if I'm wrong) that the Windows File Explorer already has a WebDAV client built-in. So given that On Air is some sort of WebDAV server I'd be able to access it from a Windows desktop. I can already ping the IP address of the phone while is running On Air. So I was hopping that while the On Air App was running on the phone I could issue the command -> net use x: \\phone ip address\Resourcename from a Windows desktop and connect the phone as a network drive. The thing is that it's not clear what the "resourcename" is when you use On Air as the WebDAV server. I tried onair and other names as the resourcename, but it did not work. I think that using File Explorer from Windows instead of a browser or a dedicated WebDAV client would be the most convenient way to do file transfers. I also tried Firefox, IE and AnyClient (WebDAV client) to access the On Air share, but was also unsuccessful. I could not find any documentation on how to use On Air, but I assume that is working for some folks.
I guess what I'm looking for is an application that allows me to access the Captivate storage, as it acts as a WiFi NAS, from any Windows desktop attached to my LAN. Or someone with instructions on how to get the On Air app to work so that I can transfer files to/from the Captivate using any Windows desktop in my LAN.
I used FileZilla using FTP. Make sure you use active mode, worked for me. Good luck.

Ok, I downloaded FileZilla and when I try to connect to the On Air Server it appears to stablish a session, but it eventually fails. I get the following messages:
Status: Connecting to 192.168.1.112:5548...
Status: Connection established, waiting for welcome message...
Error: Connection timed out
Error: Could not connect to server
Status: Waiting to retry...
Status: Connecting to 192.168.1.112:5548...
Status: Connection established, waiting for welcome message...
Error: Connection timed out
Error: Could not connect to server
I used onair and anonymous as ids and the password number generated by On Air.
What exactly do you mean by making sure that I use Active Mode? I went to the FTP Active settings... what settings should I have there?
Open the Site Manager in FileZilla by either clicking file then site manager or using the shortcut CTRL+s. Here you create a site, or server, to connect to. In the general tab fill out the info from On Air. Use onair as your user and the four digit number that On Air generates as the password.
Now under the tab for transfer setting, you check the active radio button. Once you click connect you should be able to see your Cappy.
Let me know if you still need help.

Thanks for the help, but I was unable to connect using FileZilla's Site Manager with your instructions.. The version of FileZilla that I downloaded (3.3.4.1) did not have a WebDAV connection type. I tried the FTP option, but I kept getting the message: "Connection established, waiting for welcome message..." What connection option are you using?
After a few trials and errors... I finally connected to the On Air server on the Captivate, but with AnyClient 2.0 using its WebDAV connection type. I'm able to transfer files to/from my Captivate using any Windows desktop in my LAN. File transfers from the Captivate to the desktop are actually pretty fast. Now that I know that the WebDAV server is up and running and accepting connections in the Captivate... tomorrow, if I get a chance, I'll try again to get it to work using the Windows File Explorer.
Ok, I got On Air WebADV working using Windows File Explorer... BUT, only using Windows XP's File Explorer. It "appears" that there is a limitation in the Mini Redirector built-in the File Explorer of Windows 7 that only allows WebADV connection in port 80. The default port of On Air WebADV server is 8880 and there is no (user friendly) option to change this port either in On Air or in the File Explorer of Windows 7. I'll keep looking around to see if there is a way to change (hack) the default port of Windows 7 File Explorer. There is probably a registry entry to change this, but I'm afraid that changing it will break Web connections elsewhere within Windows 7..

Did you change On Air to use FTP protocol? If you tap the icon on the top right it changes protocols. Anyway, glad to see you got it to work.

Yeap, I tried several protocols, but none work using Win 7 File Explorer because the Map Network Drive Wizard does not allow ftp or http connections to ports other than the default ports. So you can only enter ftp://ipaddress or http://ipaddress. In Windows XP you can enter http://ipaddress:anyport# in the Add Network Place Wizard and it works. XP then prompts you for the id and pw and the folder for the WebDAV server is added under My Network Places in File Explorer. I prefer WebDAV as it is a newer and more flexible protocol than FTP.
