S730-Notebook with Vista-No internet

I have a notebook, with MS Vista, and with mobile internet (pcmcia card). A tried to connect internet via s730 through mobile device center, but i can't.
I tried with WI-FI: connect to my notebook (ad hoc connection) but i can't use internet.
I tried it with free hotspot and it works.
I don't understand. What can i do?

How are you trying to get online?
You want the s730 do connect to your data network and share that? Or do you want to dial it into the internet (someone got that working on here) or are you connected through your notebook already and want to share that to your s730?

I've never been able to get this to work, I don't even know if you can or not.

I am confused.
Do you want your s730 to get on the Internet by connecting to your laptop? Can you just use a usb cable then you can use internet connection through laptop onto phone.

If I understand you correctly your laptop is what is online and you want it to pass the connection onto your phone through the wifi?
If thats the case that you just need to enable ICS on your laptop. It will be under your menu settings, I havnt messed around with vista's network settings so I cannot tell you quite what it looks like. Possibly a check box or a protocol to install. But once you install Internet Connection Sharing your computer should pass the connection out.

I have this working on my machine with my 730. Often you might need to repair the network connection to your phone from the network connection control panel as it sometimes loses it's IP address.
I also found that I needed to do some work in OneCare which I use as an AntiVirus and Firewall as this was blocking access to the Mobile Device Center.
hope this helps

s730 keeps connecting to gprs

Hi!
Im new to this forum and just got my first HTC (and WM phone).
How do I let the phone use wifi instead of gprs? I have configured my own wifi and connected it but still the phone insist to connect via gprs (deleting gprs settings is not an option here).
Other issue is that windows mobile center doesn't recognize my phone. Windows (vista 64) will install everything smooth but mobile center just does not recognize the phone (tried with usb and bt and two different computers).

Ok, resolved how to disconnect the gprs. Still have the 2 problems left, how to make the wifi priority and how to connect to windows mobility center

I had the same problem and I just erased a the grps data configuration...to be sure that i'm always using a wifi connection and not a gprs connection!

but erasing gprs it not an option because I use it regularly

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

Activesync and WIFIrouter! Need solutions

Hi folks, just got my diamond almost a week ago and I already filled it up with applications, absolutely love it's wide area of functions. I came across a great idea that i could use at work: to connect the phone through activesync(that will give me internet on the phone from the computer) and then to use wifirouter app to further share this internet connection. But I couldn't get this working, because wifirouter accesses my gsm/3g internet on the phone instead of the internet obtained from the computer through activesync. Anyone got an idea how to get this working?

when u connect your phone with usb u can choose : shared internet connection. maybe then it will works dnoo

I don't think you understood, I need internet forwarding from pc to phone firstly, which I managed to do already with activesync, but I also want wifirouter application to recognize the internet being sent from the pc through activesync and not connect to edge/3g.

I think u need to setup your wifi router again this time dont set it to gprs/3g select usb to wifi. That shld work it

The wifirouter application doesnt give me any options, it just initializes and thats it.

can anyone help?

Using the USB to Wifi mode should work in this instance. That is if you're using one of the paid versions as I'm not sure if the free version supported this.

Internet connection WI-FI vs ActiveSync

Hi ,
I was playing with my Diamond and I have a strange situation ( for me at least) .
Some programs (AppToDate , WeatherWatcher , Windows Messenger ) doesn't get the updates on ActiveSync connection (internet connection seems off for those applications) , but over WI-Fi , yes .
I have check on under USB to PC "Enable advanced network functionality"
Some they work over both (Internet Explorer , Opera.. ).
Probably it's a setup thing , but I cannot figure out what.
Can somebody help me ?
Thanks,

did you enable MMS and internet sharing when you first did the ActivSync setup to the phone? If not, go to Start, then internet sharing, then for PC connection, choose USB. Hope this helps

Yes , they are both enabled , that's why I don't understand why some applications work with ActiveSync and others not. Actually all work with WIFI , but some doesn't with ActiveSync !?

Hi ,
I found the problem , but now I have another issue/question.
Under Settings> Connections > Advanced > Select Networks , I choose "My work Network " for "Programs that automatically connect to internet..."
It seems that all programs work when the USB is connected to PC.
Now the question is : Is the intenet comming through PC or is using the 3G ?
How could I check/see that ?
Thanks,

to be on the safe side, i would disable phone in comm. mang and then you will know it will be uusing the internet. If not, this may not work, turn your speakers on, if you heard sounds coming out of your speakers when your connected, then you are using 3G. it depends on your speakers if they have any interference. for me it does so i know when it is using 3G or not but I disable phone just to be safe.

I did turn off the phone connection and I got internet for my applications with ActiveSync.
It seems to be Ok now. I hope when they are both enabled (3G and ActiveSync connected) the ActiveSync is prioritized over 3G.
Thanks,
