Re: PIE cannot browse internet over wifi with Cingular 8125

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance


Try using a better browser, like Opera 8.5 or NetFront 3.2. Free trials
anyway. Bottom line man! U need to see if another browswer gets on the
net, if yes, the problem could be with PIE. As far as GPRS goes, I know
this, Wi-Fi takes priority over GPRS as a standard feature, unless
device does not detect a Wi-Fi network. If all else fails, hopefully u
have backups, or make some, you may need to hard boot device, sorry, or
try Memmaid to clean up registry and other deeper corruption.

*I have tried setting up a new Cingular 8125 to connect to the web
using
my home wireless router. I have many PCs that browse fine.

I went to Start->Settings->Connections->Network Cards and I set up a
wireless connection to connect to "The Internet" (instead of
"Work".)
The wireless setup went fine.
After reading other posts here I downloaded vxUtils. So I can see
that
I am getting an IP address, a gateway, and primary and secondary DNS
servers. I can ping the gateway, the dns servers, other pc's on the
network, and yahoo.com from the device. So vxUtil looks fine.

BUT when I open PIE and try going to yahoo.com or any other site, it
gives me a "locating" status for a while then gives me the error
message: "The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the
connection was lost".

I even used the vxUtil whois and time utilities and I got
information
back. So that makes me think the device can access the internet, I
just
cannot browse web sites with PIE.

Another bit of info, when I change my wireless connection to use
"Work"
instead of "The Internet", the connection goes through "Congular
GPRS"
but PIE is able to browse the web. I didn't think I would have to do
this though. I thought I should just be able to connect to The
Internet
and browse the web and connect to other PCs on my network.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
