Hey guys,

I have a T-Mobile Dash that I just upgraded to Windows Mobile 6.1. I have installed Live Search successfully but I am having trouble using it while at home. I can select "Gas Prices" for example when I'm connected at home but I get an error that the server did not understand the request. Please check your settings or try again later. I have no problem at all when I'm at work and connected via a VPN connection. I can run any of the tools with no hitch. That being said, I know that the issue is not with the Live Search application. It must be with the WiFi. I have a Linksys Wireless-G router with standard settings. It does have a network key associated with it. The interesting thing is that I can browse on my phone with no problem at all while at home. It is just when I try to access various tools in Live Search (e.g. Gas Prices, Movies, Traffic). If I select Web within Live Search, I can browse anywhere I want. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Ummm thats pretty weird, so you can browse the internet and all at home on your WiFi is that correct? also try to restart the phone and see if that works or if that does anything.

I tried power cycling about a dozen times. I even removed the battery. No luck my friend. It's so frustrating too because it was working. I fiddled around with a few settings and now it won't even work at the office anymore but I have no problem browsing.

Make sure you have the latest release. I had to "upgrade" my Live Search 3 times before I got the most recent working copy. Now everything works perfectly.

I updated to wm 6.1 and I'm getting the same problem too. Was there any resolution to this? I surf the web ok but nothing else works.

Please, where did you get the version 6.1? From their website I can find only wm6.
