Hi,
I have searched but i have not found a software that measures the download AND upload speed of a 3G or wifi connection in order not to open IE or Opera and go to dslreports.com for example.
There is a software for iphone (speedtest), for android (speedtest from XtremeLabs) but it seems there is nothing for windows mobile.
So if someone know one for windows mobile.
Thanks
i would be interested in this too. atm im just using dslreports.com

Hello,
We are developers of a Wireless Sales Automation Software for Windows Mobile. We recently had a situation of one of our clients’ employee using the equipment to access porn sites with the browser. We were wondering if there is a way to safely delete IE from the Windows Mobile and still allow internet access with our application.
Thanks
Guillermo
I don't think its possible because afaik windows mobile integrate ie in the ROM. and even if u did manage to delete it, users can still access it through opera or install some third party internet browsers... so best is block those porn sites thru ur internet gateway. good luck.

Click to collapse
thanks....
The good thing is the employees using the equipment aren't very computer savvy. They are sales persons, so maybe I could try deleting the shortcuts to the IE executable.
Thanks
another thing... the users connect directly to the internet via the cellular company, so they do not pass-thru any of our gateways.
maybe there is some netnanny kinda software for pocketpc i would look into it if i were you
also who in their right mind would bother with pr0n on the ultra slow gprs network?
i mean all the popups and such from those sites would have the xda needing a softreset in no time
if they are really computer morons then maybe just removing the IE shortcut from start bar and programs would be enough ?
or you may run your software in a kiosk mode. This would prevent user from running anything else. Search for "spb kiosk" in google.
I have looked all over the internet, both on this site and through google, I even shot over to howardforums for a few. I know I saw the solution somewhere, but all my searches are filled with bbc connection probs, not internet connection probs. Heres whats going on... I have the TNT2 rom, I changed the aku version in my registry to .3.7.1 and installed Blackberry Connect 4.0.0.90. Everything there is working fine. The problem is that Internet Explorer will not work. I knew this was a possibility cause I read it on this forum somewhere. I installed Opera Mini browser and then my PC crashed and I lost my bookmark that showed how to make it connect through blackberry connect. Does anyone have the link to the page that shows how to get it to share the existing BBC connection instead of it trying to create its own? Or know how to do it? I went to Start>Settings>Connections>Advanced>Select Networks & changed both dropdowns to My Blackberry, then went to the MidLet manager and set the network on Opera Mini to My Blackberry, and it gives me this error...
Error
Failed to connect to the Internet.

Someone please Help!!!
Thanks.
You can only connect to the special Internet browser that is in the Blackberry folder under programs using BBconnect,, so when you click on to that Icon, you will get the IE explorer.. When your IE explorer comes up,, just go and locate your favorites, and voila.. It is a reconfigured IE explorer (the BBconnect installation does that to your existing Ie explorer). Total Manipulation,, browsing really is the pits using that Internet explorer. So, I advise using Opera (you can actually install on your SD card,), or Opera MIni(I put mine on my main memory). I really do love the Opera Mini (saves ykou lots of money on Data and is really neat, especially the new version).. Set up in connections a normal data connection with your carriers setup, and when you are either going to Opera or Opera MIni you should automatically be turned on to that new data connection GPRS (different than your BBconnect data connection).. Make sure for example, when in Opera Mini,for network settings, you choose the new gprs connection that you just set up, so it will connect properly when you go and connect. Unfortunately, the BBconnect really screws things up for internet connections, and it really is a pain in the butt,,because I have to go to BBsettings sometimes, to suspend the bbconnection, so as I can get either Gprs or Wifi connection, because BBconnection is always trying to connect otherwise. Supposedly, the Internet browser in that BBfolder is supposed to be compressed data, but I haven't seen much compression going on! and bringing up data is slow as molasses.. At least this is all my experience.. If anyone else would like to add to what I said or shed some more light on the subject,, please by my guest. Let me know , if you need any more help
my issue has been now that BBC is installed, I cannot use any other data connection, and no program will use the BBC connection. Also, when you mention that you're using opera, do you mean the full version you'd normally put on a pc? If so, does it have the drag to move feature that mini beta does? Thank you.
I think I figured out part of it. Theres a registry tweak to get IE working again, the problem is that it creates a new connection instead of using the BBC connection. Does anyone know how to get everything (especially opera mini) to run off the blackberry connection? I think it doesn't work right cause of the proxy.
hello guys, thanks for all the help with making my dash a lot better. one question i have. I dont know what is wrong with IE. it tells me to configure my connections. but i am using wifi and i used opera min and it goes to the web sites. i cannot use internet explorer.
Go to tools and opinions and then make sure connections is the internet.
does any body knows if there's and app similar to HTC CM Wifi Internet Sharing for the dash or one does work cause a look around and all i find was for touch version thanks
pdanet for windows mobile, it's free for 30days then is 29.99. it's the best tethering/tunneling tool i've found to use your phone for internet on your pc if that was your intention
link here for WM devices junefabrics.com
wm 6+ has a internet connection sharing added in the menu, if you have a connection established you can use it to relay that connection to any windows based pc via usb
Has anyone else tried to connect via WiFi to another phone over WiFi shared internet successfully?
I got my HTC HD7 WP7 today for development, so no plan. I was upset to find out the inability to connect to the hidden WiFi at my work is a known/"by design" issue; however, I quickly went to my fallback plan of using my HTC TP2's (Touch Pro 2) WiFi Internet Sharing/Tethering (CM Internet Sharing). However, this did not detect either! This is not a hidden network, and uses WEP protection. The WP7 phone did successfully find and connect to other networks, so it's not the phone.
Has anyone else tried this or can anyone else confirm this? This phone would be a whole lot more useful to me if I could have a connection on-the-go, as I planned!
Thank you!
I am posting without a lot of technical expertise/knowledge, however if WP7 is at all similar to the Operating System that the Zune HD has (I believe it is quite alike), and the TP2 is at all similar to the HTC HD2, then I guess I might have an answer.
The HTC HD2 creates a Wifi Network, which the Zune HD cannot see. The reason is the network is created as a "computer to computer" network on Windows Mobile 6, and for some reason the Zune HD cannot see Computer to Computer networks. You have a way of knowing wether your TP2 is doing the same as my HD2, by turning on the wireless connection sharing on the TP2, and then using your laptop or notebook PC, and looking at the available wireless networks and their properties. If you are using Vista or Windows 7, Computer to Computer networks have an icon right next to them showing two small computer monitors.
Let me know what you find.
Great point! You are correct, and that explains it and makes sense. I guess if WP7 doesn't even support "hidden" networks yet, there's very slim hope for computer-to-computer networks in the near future. Disappointing.
