activesync disables wifi?

[lansa]

When ever I connect my Tilt to the laptop and activesync is on, wifi is disabled on my phone, even though I have "allow wifi on device" checked...any ideas?

Not to familiar with tilt, but you should try using the htc comm manager.
I do recall having connectivity issues while my kaiser is connected to the comp but turning wifi on(manually), then connecting it gave me no problems. Htc comm manager makes it easy to manually turn on/off wlan and other devices

is that the same as wireless manager in connection settings?

Hmm dont have "wireless manager" in my kaiser connection settings.

But if your allowed to turn on/off wlan i guess you dont need the comm manager(even though its the most awesomess thing ever) :)

I'm having the same problem with my Kaiser.

I tried changing the 'this device connects to' setting in the connection properties of activesync, but that doesnt change anything. Also, when making a phone call the WLAN connection will be disconnected. After finishing the phone call, the WLAN connection is being re-established.

the option is not to allow wifi, but allow wireless connections to the GPRS network for VOIP and mms etc. Has nothing to do with Wifi.

This is normal. My advantage does it as well, and is likely one of microsofts usual unwanted changes 'for security reasons'!
