Did you turn this option on in AS? Firewall isn't blocking it? Then... make sure you didn't screwed internet options in Settings->Connections - it should be automatic.

well when i fist got the device and installed active synch it just worked. didnt have to change anything.. any special setting i need to make after upgradeing from 03 to 06?
not running any firewall (windows one included)
settings->connection doesn't show any connection. under the advanced tab "use work network" is selected.

OK - which ROM did you flash? Check your "Settings->connections->USB-to-PC", it should have "Advanced networking" checked on.

Well, that's perfect...

Hm.

After flashing AS performed a new device setup, right? The last question (after setting up, which items are to be synchronized) is this device is allowed to use Internet connection. Are you sure you've checked it? If so... well, I don't know :rolleyes:

Of course. In AS (while having PDA unconnected) choose "delete partnership", and then connect your Hima, it will resetup the partnership.

did that, still the same unfortunatly.
though i did find out that wm06 creates a local area connection.
i tried to share my desktop's internet connection with the wm created one but still nothing yet.

thanks ciberus. I've managed to find an answer without needing to change connection type. see my post above.
glad you've posted though so we can have both solutions in a single place (I wasn't able to find your post by searching the forums before I started this thread). cheers
