hi
i have a belkin g wireless 802.x.G router at home and have a wifi setup since long..
i was always able to connect to the wireless network with Bluangel aswell as my laptops.. (i have no encyrption.. or secutrity settings)
i upgraded the radio rom to 1.12 and after that have not been able to connect to the network.. it says belkinG network found and connected but the internet explorer or msn or agile messenger cant seem to find the net settings..
internet is on share in main computer nad my lap tops still conect and use it..
i thought may be it was because of rom 1.12 but flashed older 1.31 imate with ext rom and radio rom but still cant get the internet to work..
when i use PIE it says network card not found..check settings..
in wireless settings i can see it saying that it is connected to belkin network
can anyone help me
thanks

can you see if your pda2k's wlan adapter has an IP address? if not, then only radio is connected but that doesn't mean you have a working network connection.
I use vxUtil which is a collection of network tools, this enables me to ping, check settings, ip addresses and a whole lot of other stuff since the onboard utils just don't cut it for network use..
argh
I have the same problem although I havent upgraded any radio settings! My Wifi has worked fine since ive had my m2000, being able to stream video and music or surf the web. but recently i cant surf the web although I can still stream music.
Ive downloaded the program you reccomended, but not to sure what to do with it. Any help would be ideal
Thanks
hi
thanks guys.. i dont know what happened but everything is eorking now ..including the net.. just turned wifi on.. it asked me again whether this is for work or internet (evn htough i had it connected to internet last time aswell)
thanks
Up until the official AT&T release of WM6 I have been able to use Slingplayer Mobile on my 8525 (both WiFi and over the AT&T network). I recently updated to VP3g's latest. I am able to work fine over local WiFi, but not over the AT&T network. My thoughts are the it's part of the AT&T crack down on MediaMax users (which I am). I don't use it that much over the network, but was wondering if anyone else has this issue since upgrading to the 'official' release.
I have read on other forums that other users are having the same issue. Basically, when working over the network, I get to the 'Starting' and notice that the indicator goes from H to 3G after a few seconds...and then the message pops up.
Everything else seems to work fine, tho I don't have as much program space (20 MB vs 27 MB) as I did on VP3g's 3.0 version.

I use slingplayer with vp3g's newest rom. works no problem.
I have MediaMax too. wap.cingular works fine.
Run the disable proxy cab and try it then...
And make sure that your My ISP is set to wap.cingular with [email protected] pw. (for the mediamax workaround without using the MediaNet connection(which I believe has a built in proxy)).
But try the disable proxy...
Thank you for the response. I did try the disable proxy with no change in the result (it installs successfully, but Sling does not work).
I was not implying that it was anything to do with VP3G's version of the new OS...I'm sure it's something that I forgot to do.
I was thinking it might have to do with a recent upgrade from DSL Ultra to Xtreme (where you have a dedicated IP address)...so today I performed the Slingplayer internet access setup again. Tried to access via the AT&T network with the same results...
Locating
Connecting
Starting...
Starting...
Then after about 5 to 10 seconds it goes from H to 3G and and back to H and I get the SlingPlayer popup that says 'Cannot continue streaming due to weak connection. Please try again later.'
I have 3 bars, so I don't think it's the signal...I wonder if something needs to be setup on the DSL modem now that it has a dedicated IP address...
Thank you again for any suggestions.

Having a static IP should not change your upload speed on DSL. It does however mean that you don't have to enter the million digit finder id for the slingbox anymore, just put in your static ip with the proper port.
Have you always been in the same place when this happened? Always at home perhaps? or work? I'm thinking that it might be a tower issue....hmmm
You of course can use PIE and get on the internet no prob right?
Two bars of signal should be fine, I've gotten it to work on one bar of EDGE before (awful quality, and choppy) so it should work great with that strength..,,,
OK. Try this. From your house try to get on (from the 8525) and see if
1) Network lights on slinglink flash(if you have one)
2) Red lights on the slingbox come on/flash (red network should flash I believe; red led on the "u" should come on if connected
Sounds like you are connecting to the box, but losing connection after the handshake.
Go to www.dslreports.com and do an uplink speed test from your home network. Gotta rule out everything....
Hope this helps.
I had the same problem, but upgraded my slingbox to the next build and it is working again. I'm using a PC, and when I loaded slingbox on my pc it said a new version is available.
I've found someone with the same problem!!
My XDA orbit with WM6 slings fine within my home wifi network but doesn't work anywhere else over gprs or wifi.
Interestingly, it works fine outside my home if I share a wifi connection with my laptop but if the phone connects itself, I get the locating, then streaming then weak connection.
I guess it's an issue with the wifi connection on the phone but quite why it works on my home network but not anywhere else in the world is a mystery!
I have the latest software for slingbox.
All help gratefully received

Which Slingbox Mobile version are you using? Version 1.2 does not work on WM6 (unless you run the patch floating around here) and version 1.5 does.
Very strange
Very strange. Mine works fine with the ATT WM6 Rom. I have cable so I DNS. Every once in a while i get the issue you are talking about but I just soft reset and then the I connect no problem. In case you want to narrow it down...I use the following:
Slingbox Classic
Time Warner Cable
8525 with WM6 and slingplayer version 1.5
I have verified that the issue occurs whether I'm near home or 60 miles away, in either case going through the AT&T network. I do see the light come on my slingbox pro when the PDA says Starting. I've checked and I have the lastest versions for windows, mac, and mobile. I'm wondering if there is some issue with my router as I do remember having to reboot that a few weeks ago (you can see that I don't use the mobile version that much, but of course now I miss it).
I'll check on the router and let you all know. I did have 4 bars today when testing from home...and as I said it works fine via my home WiFi.
Thank you all for the support, it has been great!
Works fine for me w/ Vp3g 3.62
I have a standard vp3g rom w/ 1.54 radio. My Slingbox pro works fine w/ a 3G connection, but no so good w/ Edge (no surprise there.) I'm even running a wireless ethernet bridge to it - not hardwired. I can't explain why you are having any issues, but do confirm you have the latest ROMs on all your networking equipment, including the slingbox and your Router. Good luck.
Still no joy...wondering if I should re-install the OS...I installed Sling Player Mobile again, removed, then re-installed because I noticed that it wasn't listed under the program list via add/remove programs...I suspected that there was something with the last install...
I re-installed ActiveSync 4.5 on my PC because it was acting funny (would disconnect from my PDA with no message sometimes) that seems to be fine now...
I checked my router...it has a passthru setting for my Slingbox IP address and std port.
My DSL modem has IP Passthru to my router...
My only thought is to re-install the OS which has been a pain because I have Garmin Mobile 10 and have been reloading the maps each time so that they are available...I'll copy the garmin folder from My Device to my desktop, maybe that will remove this necessity...
Any more ideas let me know...
Thank you,
Tim
I ran the mobile speed test on DSL reports, at 400k it said 633/512/437 kbs, earlier in the day it said the file was too small. At 1 MB I got 574/454/499 kbs, earlier in the day it was 791 kbs.
I'm in south Florida, I'm using:
ROM version: vp3G 3.62.3
ROM date: 10/11/07
Radio version: 1.50.00.00
Protocol version: 32.83.7020.20H
SlingPlayer Mobile 1.5.0.98
SlingPlayer is loaded on 2GB storage card. It was working with vp3G 3.60...and 1.50.00.00.
I reloaded the OS and with just sling player loaded on internal...still no joy.
I reset the DSL modem to factory settings and enabled IP Passthru for my router, no joy.
I even set my slingbox in the DMZ, no joy.
I'm wondering if it's something to do with my radio..1.50?
I have another option...besides DSL I have cable and may try connecting the sling box through that...
Any other ideas?
I've verified setup for internet viewing via my PC...
Just an idea... Try orb.com.
I stream my video via a connection to cable on my PC via Orb.

Interesting findings this weekend. As mentioned previously, I have internet access via cable modem and DSL Xtreme. I moved the slingbox, pc, and router over to my cable modem. Setup everything so that the PC could see the Sling locally and it works fine. When I try to configure for remote viewing, it does not work! I manually configured the router and still no Joy.
I then put the router and slingbox on the DSL LAN and reset the router to defaults (no port forwarding, etc.) Configure everything to work locally, then setup remote network viewing...sling setup thinks all is fine. I check the router...nothing has changed, no port forwarding entries, etc. So I manually configure.
I hook my pc up to the cable modem directly, get internet access and attempt to connect to the sling. It connects almost immediately and then sits on Optimizing for about a minute without any bars or activity going on within the viewer.
I'm wondering if this is a problem with my router...I can run speed tests with multi megabyte files without any issues...
My router is a d-link wbr1310..which used to work...but I guess it's possible that my problem has been discovered...any thoughts?
BTW, I down graded my radio to 1.48 prior to doing all of this and that didn't make any difference which led me to do all of the following for problem isolation.
Thanks for any thoughts...

First of all thanks to Schap. I am using schap's compiled WM6.
I have 2 small problems.
The first one is:
I setup a WIFI connection, than launch the application which will use Internet!
(I.Explorer or VPN, etc..)
When I do some request from any application, my PPC tries to dial a number to connect via EDGE, GPRS or HSDPA, even PPC is already connected to Internet!!
The internet explorer downloads the page without any problem but at the same time i always cancel dialing via gsm or umts line.
Is there any way to make PPC avoid dialing a connection when I connected wia Wifi???
The second one is:
I have the latest version of Trinitiy with 400Mhz Samsung and 128Mb RAM. But since i cracked and reinstalled WM6 instead of WM5, it works slowly. I clicked to Start button, menu scrolls in 3 seconds. It is like running vista on pentium III processor. Is it normal? or I made a mistake during configuration?
Is it possible to upgrade RAM?
Regards to everyone...
For your 2nd problem, can you try to disable cleartype and touchflo ?
Thanks..
Now it is working faster. But i have always the same problem concerning the wifi issue...
When I am connected to the internet via Wifi or activeSync the bottom of IE says "Connecting ... 0 KB." At the same time it tries to connect via 3G, GPRS or EDGE. Then I get a message saying "Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your settings, tap Settings."
I have tried everything on connection->settings. But still tries to connect via cellular line even there is a connection to internet!

I think i have the same problem, but in my case, it connects internally, so, when i click the internet button, i get a delay of like 15 seconds before to get any screen. this is happennig recently... it was working fine until 1 or 2 days ago... i have the proxy settings on the internet connection... im thinking that this maybe related.
Hi bro
i ve installed wmwifirouter on my hd touch and it works perfectly first time , but when i want to go to wifi settings in comm manager it doesn t give me anything except wmwifirouter interface .
Now the wifi for my hd is wmwifirouter !!!
did it replace my wifi drivers by its own ?
Also another thing , when i reboot my hd and start wmwifirouter , my laptop is autimatically connected with wmwifirouter hotspot and have no connection to internet ,even if it is connected over 3g or hudpa .
Last thing , i cleared storage then i reflashed my hd and all these issues with wmwifirouter are still there !!!!!
Really i can t understand why ????
Excuse my bad english and hope to have an answer brothers.
Thank you a lot in advance
Bluetooth HD & WMwifirouter
I'm also having problems, but just to prove that it wasn't dutty's rom i went back to the stock rom, cellular binded to wifi works, but cellular binded to bluetooth does not.
Does anyone else have similar problems.
When i set up bluetooth as a wireless connection it finds the Hermes running WMWifirouter, but doesn't load any services and the Hermes never ends up listed as a device i'm connected to, though on the Hermes, it shows the HD as connected, and the Dialup Networking Service as being selected
Hey Guys,
I just got a Motorola Xoom Tablet and it's not allowing me to use my mobile's hotspot to connect to the internet. I use my phone for everything. It even connects my laptop and all other devices.
My device is on WinMo 6.5 (HTC Tilt 2)
Can anyone help me solve this?
The issue is on your tablet. Android devices by default cannot connect to adhoc (non-infrastructure) networks.
I think with some supplicant hacks, your Xoom would be able to connect to an adhoc network.
The only problem is that the Xoom I have is the Family Edition. The bootloader is unlockable and there is no way around it as of now.
However, the wifi hotspot provided by an Android phone connects to the tablet without a problem. I just tried it on a friend's phone and it worked like a charm.
Would there be a cab/app that can change the mode of the wifi output on my WM phone?
It would suck to upgrade my cell phone just to have this work..

Just use Android then.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171052
AFAIK there's no way in WinMo to put up an infrastructure network. On Android all the third party wifi tethering solutions are adhoc as well, only the built-in wifi tethering app works as an infrastructure network.
Just be warned, the built-in wifi hotspot feature has a tendency to suck wind when you try to disable it. IIRC it works great up until that point.
I'll try this now and see what happens..
Thanks..

Have you had any additional luck?
I am running a TP2 with NRG and I have same issue trying to connect
an EVO View to the TP2.
Before I go changing phones (I like the TP2 for most of my biz stuff), I thought
I would try to find out if maybe you got an easy solution??
Thanks

Just use Android as I suggested as well. It will allow you to put up a native infrastructure AP, which you should be able to connect to on your Evo View.
Or, you can fix the Evo View to access ad-hoc networks. Either way.
