Internet through Activesync

[misschilli]

Hi, I'm a newbie who just bought an Imate Jasjam. I have been trying to use the internet via Activesync through USB. In my old ppc2002 it does so automatically, but I can't seem to get my Jasjam to connect to the internet. I type an address in IE and it loads with "connecting..." in the bottom bar but nothing happens. It doesn't even say that the page i'm looking for cannot be found. Am I missing something? Thanks for any comments.

Follow these steps and you'll be on the internet through activesync in 10 seconds. For more information you can press help(active sync) and go to connecting a mobile device to a PC, then choose the fifth help page...

1. Click Connection Settings.
2. Select Open ActiveSync when my device connects.
3. In the This computer is connected to list, select a connection to which this computer should connected when passing through ActiveSync.

at step 3 select Internet and it will work, it works for me.....

good luck..

btw.. have you search the forum before posting your msg? maybe there is a treath already for this topic

Thanks for your reply, I've done that already and it still doesnt work. Is it my ppc? because the IE doesn't seem to load properly, it loads for about 1s then just stops and nothing changes.

You should get an error message. page cannot be displayed... or something... But right now you are at work and you don't have you ppc connect through activeSync??

but at home once you connect your device to you Pc does ActiveSync synchronize normally? can you explore your device through active sync???

do you internet thorugh GPRS?

[misschilli]

Yeah that's why it's so strange because no error comes up at all, it just stays on exactly the same page (the default homepage). I only connect at home. Activesync syncs fine and I can explore the ppc fine. I've tried changing all these different settings and disabling my firewalls but nothing!

[alexei]

it stays on the same page till you succesfully load another page, but it supose to give you an error... do you have other connections configured at settings/tab connections and connections?? do you see something like manage existing connections???

[misschilli]

I do, it's on Auto pick and the other options are telstra.WAP.GSM and Telstra.WAP

[misschilli]

Thanks for your input Alexei, I've just done a hard reset and it works now. I must have changed some setting somewhere along the line but all's good now.

I also cannot connect my phone. In connections I have only add modem conection, proxy connection and that's it. Do I have to change the network cards or something like this?

Also check any firewall to ensure it's not blocking traffic from Activesync.
