Frustrated!! Pocket Internet Explorer doesn't work when cradled

[xunkn0vvnx]

I have a Cingular 8525 with WM5, using the lastest version of Activesync. I do not have wifi or 3g internet connection on my cell phone. Everything is synced and seems to be working fine but PIE doesn't work.

My Network management settings are:

Programs that automatically connect to the Internet should connect using: "My ISP"

Programs that automatically connect to a private network should connect using: "My ISP"

Under Connections it reads: My ISP, and for select a modem it says "Cellular Line"

How do I enable my phone to use pocket internet explorer when cradled? The reason is that my RSS reader cannot update because IE cannot connect.

Save me! I spent the last 4 hours trying to fix this problem.

Hi,

I had the same problem some time ago.
In ActiveSync\File\Connections I had to tick "This computer is connected to: The internet". Now it works.

Change "cellular line" to "cellular line GPRS" from the scroll down box.

The saga still continues to no avail...

i clicked "This computer is connected to the internet"

and also selected "Cellular line GPRS"
What do I enter for Access point name, username, password, etc.

This is getting really annoying.

Still nothing, when I right click and try to connect it says

"Cannot Connect
The current connection cannot be used for your request. Please end the current connection and try again."

Is AT&T your carrier? When did all this begin happening? The settings I've given you are to be made directly on your device, and not from a PC. Try "auto pick" instead of ISP GPRS, and see if that helps.

One more thing to try: go to your connections settings, tap on advanced (at bottom) select MediaNet from scroll box, tap "proxy" the box that says it uses a proxy to connect should be unchecked (empty) The top box should be checked. You haven't done any internet connection tweaks in the registry have you?

0 internet registry tweaks, do you think you could link me to the cab that should be able to fix this for me?

Either way, and despite whether or not this gets fixed, thank you, thank you, for helping me.

Sorry man, I don't have the cabs for this fix. I remember reading about someone having the same problems and a cab fix was requested. Can't remember where I read about it. I recommend a forum or google search for the cab fix...I'm pretty sure you'll find what you need.

Ok here is the weird thing... I am running SPB mobile, and when I sync my weather is able to update for New York, NY. Doesn't that mean it must be getting an internet connection through PIE? DOes SPB mobile mess with the registry?

Anybody? Lately I've been using WiFi to update my phone but Id rather have it work when it is cradled.
