Does TMobile block VPNs in their standard internet plans? - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Moderators, please move this if you need to, I thought I might get a better response in the dev section.
I'm trying to tether and open a vpn tunnel. Internet works great, and I can hit the server, but get no response. I just wanted to know if TMobile is blocking the protocol before I go digging for a solution I may not find.
Thanks.

You need a VPN dedicated plan. Call T-Mobile ask for Total Internet with VPN. There are seperate plans dedicated to VPN.

internet problem

when i try to go on any website i get this error
Error 501 - Bad Request
The server could not esolve your request for url:
can anybody help me out?
it would help if you told us your carrier, data plan, settings etc.
my guess is you have tmobile with either no data plan or tmobile web plan.
if this is true make sure you have the proxy setting put in correctly.
its t mobile and im using it prepaid
can you access the net with a prepaid sim? you should check with t-mobile to see if your account is authorized to access the net.
T-mobile Prepaid users do not have access to the internet. Just a limited amount of sites. (and i mean limited..) You can use wifi to use the internet. Sorry..

I do not see why it would be touchy because I mean its not FREE you are still paying for you it you know. I mean if it was free then its stealing, but if you pay for it then its not stealing.

As far as I know, there are no methods of getting internet access without paying at least for the $5.99 T-Zones plan. I have heard (and experienced this once myself) that people haven't had the $19.99 unlim. data plan or the $5.99 T-Zones and still have had internet access. But it was a fluke. It would come and go. Maybe it was a slip-up by the T-Mobile servers or something.

First of all, nobody's 'bs'ing the guy. I told him what I knew and left it at that. The only proxy tweak I knew of is for the $5.99 T-Zones. As far as the tweak to get free internet for nothing--I couldn't help him there. If you had read my post you would've realized that.
C'mooon Everything is this forum is form of stealing .
All ROMs are stealing too... why not Internet? .
Pretty two faces here.
we dont steal roms....we remake them.
I paid for the phone with a ROM.
I remake that rom.
Getting services without paying anything for, that is stealing
Example...your neighbor has internet. He has a wireless connection without a passkey. You tap into that signal.
Is that considered stealing?
I got the 5.99 plan .... I was just asking. is there a way to not have it and still have internet ,... just a simple question! My nokia 6133 is unlocked and it has internet with my uncle Sim Card and he doesn't have the 5.99 plan and i just thought that was weird so i asked you guys...

Hey i just got the 5.99 tzones option added and I believe I have everything set according to that, but the internet nor the email is working.
Those are the settings for WM 6 and WM 6.1. They should work on your Windows Mobile device.

Dude, when you buy a music CD and make 100 copies - you pay for one, but other 100 is simple stealing.
Read License to WM and you will see - any modification is forbidden.
Sharing is forbidden too.
There is no little or big crime - every crime is crime no matter how big or small you think it is.
Moral/legal ****z here is just offtopic .
It's not like this is top secret info anyway, it's posted in several other threads.
I'm currently using WM6.1 that I didn't pay for or remake. I came here and asked questions and nice folks helped me out. Am I a criminal? Let it go, we're all friends here.
Stealing is not paying, we are still paying 5.99 for it so I do not understand how its stealing since your paying for it.
yeah i got it to work

You don't need Wi-Fi for Palringo.
Palringo is AMAZING ! My Recommendation personally is Palringo, Looks elegant and is worth the install. Oh Yeah, like Syntaxx said, it does not require wi-fi. Works fine with my data plan.
p.s: does anyone have any idea howmuch data IM programs usually take in a day say if u used it for max. an hour? It'd really help.
...and Palringo works with t-mobile's t-zones plan through a proxy setup.
how do i set up a proxy cause i have the data plan and i signed up for palaringo but it just keeps saying reconnect pending

If you have the data plan, you don't need to setup the proxy. Just to clarify--you have the $19.99 Total Internet plan, right?
At-A-Glance : 413.478.0426
Preferred FT 400 NW plan $49.99
Unlimited Domestic Messages $14.99
Equipment Protection $5.99 $5.99
T-Mobile Total Internet Add-on $19.99
Total Due Monthly*
$90.96
thats my plan, i dont get why its not working, did i ever have to mess with the proxy or internet connections when i orignally updated to 6.1? i have no idea why it wont connect

You shouldn't have had to adjust anything. Tell you what-- Go to the T-Mobile Wireless Configurations link in my signature. Follow the directions to setup your MMS and Internet. Then reboot. Let us know how it works afterwards.
thank you so much, works fine now! cant thank ya enough

Tilt 2 ATT Wifi Cab, MediaMall Cab, and Opera Proxy

I'm having some problems getting the ATT Wifi and Media Mall cabs after flashing to the latest energy rom.
I think this might be solved if someone can post their stock opera:config settings for proxy. That way I could download the cabs from att through opera.
Any ideas?
[Proxy]
Use Proxy On Local Names Check=1
HTTP Server=wireless.cingular.com
HTTPS server=wireless.cingular.com
Use HTTP=1
Use HTTPS=1
Enable HTTP 1.1 for proxy=1
Added this to my proxy settings (Opera:config in address bar or \windows\opera\opera.ini)
Was able to go to device.home in my browser and navigate to the MediaMall site and then got the cab from there (search wi-fi).
I'm running the WWE ROM on a Tilt 2;
I was able to set the proxy, and browse the medianet page. I ended up going to the regular att website since searching the mobile medianet page didnt get me anything, and have it send me a sms for the wifi download. When I follow the link on the device, the medianet page complains that I do not have a supported device and won;t let me download it.
Is there some medianet component that has to be installed, or do I need to change opera's user agent string? Or is there another link to the wifi app?
Try navigating to http://device.home and if the mobile friendly medialnet site pops up your proxy settings are good. then find the mobile medianet site and search wifi.

I am getting to the mobile medianet site, but searching either in the medianet search, or the mediamall search, i get "no results for your handset" (searching wifi wi-fi wi fi etc.) , similar to the "your device is not supported" message when I use the direct link to the install.
I'm still thinking i need to change my user agent string currently its this;
HTC_Touch_Pro2_T7373 Opera/9.50 (Windows NT 5.1; U; en)
anyone know what the stock tilt2 uses? I didn't think to check before i flashed.
It was the UA. Found the string on the ATT devcentral site;
seems huge, but when I changed the custom string in opera to this the download/mediamall access worked;
HTC-ST7377/1.14.502.12 (50433) Opera/9.50 (Windows NT 5.1; U; en) UP.Link/6.3.1.20.06.3.1.20.0
Attached the WiFi client cab. It added some pre-configured wireless networks in the wireless setup, not sure what else its doing for authentication.
ATT Wi-fi cab
I installed the ATT wi-fi cab on my Tilt 2 running the stock ROM, but when I try to run the program in doesn't open. The program shows up in the list of installed programs and in Program Files/Wi Fi Client. Tried a soft reset, but still not working. Any help is appreciated.
uh im a noob but what would be the benefits of using/having a opera proxy
and is the mediamall like a appstore from att?
and what does the att wifi cab do

I haven't been able to get the wifi client working. It just instructs me to turn on my wifi in comm manager and gives me the opportunity to search for locations. Unfortunately, I still was hit by the starbucks wifi login page when I tried.

It seems the tilt 2 ships with 2 different proxy settings out of the box. 1 is a hidden proxy setting in the registry, the other is set in your opera settings. This basically instructs the device to view the internet via ATTs system (basic explanation). You need to do this to access Cellular Video/MediaNet, but otherwise it is usually better to circumvent the proxy.
Right, MediaMall is an ATT appstore filled with java based apps.
ATT Wifi cab supposedly lets you use WiFI for free wherever ATT Wifi is offered (Starbucks/McDonalds/airports).
ATT Wifi
I actually was able to use the ATT wifi at the local Starbucks today. I just turned on my wifi and it picked up the ATT network. I noticed that the ATT Wifi client had added some networks to the list, I guess that did the trick.
Does anyone have the att wifi .cab or know where it is located?

Only if you pay ATT for the wifi service. If you use the MediaNet $15/month package I dont think it will work. I think the Wifi and 3G package starts around $39.

I think the exact requirement is the 30 dollar a month data plan and a newer Windows Mobile device. Any Tilt 2 owner theoretically meets this due to the forced data plan requirement.

I pay $10 for family data unlimited which is usually called $15 for MediaNet unlimited but if you have txt plan it is only $10. This is the plans for non-smartphones on ATT.
I would rather save the monthly fee and not use crappy att wifi. This new att wifi is a way to try to lessen the load on 3G network since they suck. A little while ago the ATT wifi was $69 a month with 3G combo. They added the wifi to the standard package for smartphones in an attempt to get people to use the wifi when available but unless you need a lot of bandwidth (torrents) then the 3G should support the user needs without having us manually look and turn on wifi just to help them out.

I flashed the ENERGY ROM and now don't have MediaMall. Does anyone have a cab or thread to download? I'm also missing the BoardGames that came in the bloatware.

Do you have any clue what this hidden proxy in the registry is? How do I set it so I can use the media mall. I've set everything in Opera and can get to the media mall but all I get for anything is a message saying "no results for your handset." I went to the Media Mall on line (desktop) and found what I was looking for but when I tried the download via a text message they sent it tells me my device isn't supported
Anyone have a clue?

There are cab files there to enable and disable the hidden proxy.

Native SIP / VOIP client

Can someone with the T-Mobile version of the phone check if the native SIP clients is enabled? looks like ATT took it tout.
To check open the phone dialer, click menu > settings > scroll down see if you can see "internet calling".
Thanks.
There is no internet calling.

Exactly some kind but he was asking about SIP client for oter purposes I assume
But T-mobile's wifi calling will use up your plan minutes.
This is a ripped off if you ask me.....If I'm not taking up Cell Tower bandwidth, I shouldn't have to pay for it....
