School Wifi Issues [SOLVED] [GUI Proxy 'app'] - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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

VPN?

Hi
Just purchased a Kaiser and loving it!
I am new to windows mobile and trying to SSH into one of my work servers.
I have purchased PocketTY and copied my SSH2 key on to my device. I have setup a VPN in the connections settings.
How on earth do I make PocketTY connect via 3G and dial my VPN to access the server? I cannot find any docs this at all. Do I need a VPN client and if so which one should I get.
Thanks
bump
Does no one really know how to do this?
Thanks
Try PocketPutty, works a treat for me and it's free........
I think that it depends on what type of vpn you're using. Me for example I use Open VPN and therefore I had to use openvpn client on my kaiser (and I'm very happy that there is one). I also think that in your case is the vpn that isn't working properly yet. Let me know what vpn link do you have and I'll try to help you

Setting up a VPN on T-mobile UK

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.

Navigation on the HTC Diamond through authenticated proxy?

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

Proxy Settings not saved

I have searched this forum (maybe I have missed something)
Does not matter what ROM I put on the X1, when I set the proxy settings (for my work connection) they do not seem to "stick".
I saw someone mentioning a registry fix, but I cannot seem to see it.
Also if someone could make a cab the sets the keyboard language to value 1035, I would be very glad, I have a swedish keyboard on my X1, but I prefer the WWE roms.
wrong forum dude
-does this happen on official ROMs?
-did you connect the device to activesync or WMDC? normally the proxy settings get copied from the PC to the PPC
- try to use "wifi profiles" app to create several profiles with the correct proxy settings. you can now create a shortcut to activate the wifi and change to the correct profile with a single click
cheers
Thanks for looking
Not sure how this is the wrong place though as is it pertains to only cooked roms on the X1.
I am using Vista WMDC, but I will explore the profiles you where talking abount.
Essentially I am connected via USB, I have forced the PC side to use Work as the connection and I am either creating a new connection or using the work connectino then configuring the settings.
Once I set the proxy address, and I exit, it's wiped clean from that profile.
"wifi profiles" is a software http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-wifi-profiles-v0-0-2.html
also see if you can cange the proxy from Opera (opera:config) . i used to have an addtional opera mobile application just to access the internet from work without changing the profile.
Thanks, I will download it today and check.
My problem is that I want the wather and other internet based tabs in Manila to work and opera proxy would not settle this.
/J
i had a lot of proxy issues with a lot of non official builds found in most cooked roms. so see if you get this problem with an official rom

I'll try, it's jus that the Stick X1 (or even the X2 rom) sux. this is why I am putting cooked roms on it in the 1st place
I just read somewhere someone hinting that there may be a simple Registry fix to make the settings stick.
It's funny, I can go in and out of the connections settings (under work, 1st set my proxy 2nd edit my proxy) and it's all there UNTIL i go to the weather tab and try to refresh the status.
Then if I go back it's cleared
