wi fi - cannot get IP address

[guy_k]

well, i am still looking for an answer to my problem, maybe here i will find it... :cry:

i have the San Disk WIFI SD card for my I mate.
i have downloaded the driver of Socket, but still, i can connect to the hotspot but i cannot use the web.
because i am not an expert in WIFI i have asked one's opinion.
he asked me to check some details (i am enclosing them here).

he told me that my problem is not with my wifi card or in the network.
he told me that from unknown reason, i don't get an IP address.
can someone please lett me what can i do?

I have also had this problem with my Socket wifi card on my XDAII using the latest version of the socket driver. I have had to revert to version of the Socket driver (142D) because of this problem. Version 142D works fine, but doesn't have such a fancy interface as the new version! :D

If you need a copy of this driver, PM me.

I Have had the same problem and gave my M1000 a fixt IP adres yours should be something like 192.168.1.12 or at least something else as what your pc has further I always setup the nameservers you can find them to type in a dosbox ipconfig/all the DNS servers there you have to steup in the configuration of the networkcard from your phone , which can be found at settings /connextions/networkadapters there you will find the Sandiskcard just click on it and the settings for it will apear.
Now you should have connextion then still your PDA don't now that it has to use the networkadapter to get a connextion so you have to tell it to him at conections/settings/select network and there select twice work Network, this is only for your internetconnextion true your browser but email needs a other setting which you can find at your email client/tools/options/accounts/your emailaccount/next/next/next/options/there you selct work network/next finnish and now you should have full internetacces with your phone true your accespoint, if you want to use your phone to get your email just change the settings from work to providor internet, it seems to be a little complcated but it gives me at least a verry stabele internetconnection

Sucses with it
