static-IP over WIFI and 3G: 2.03-ROM bug?

[vrolok71]

I have been flashing a few 2.03 ROMs in the last few days and in all of them I find the same malfunction. I first tried with a few cooked ROMs and finally also with the stock one, same result.

Problem is with setting a static IP in WIFI. At first, it works all fine. However, soon after disconetting WIFI, you get the surprise of being unable to use the data connection over GPRS. I have trying everything (dunno how many soft- and hard-resets, even changing radio's), the only solution I have been able to find was simply that of deleting all parameters referring to the WIFI connection (including hence the static ip). By doing that, all gets back to normal. Simple solution but kind of annoying if everytime I want to use WIFI and static-IP (quite often in my case) I have to set all parameters again and again. I am now back to a 2.00 ROM which has not this problem.

Any chance someone can suggest a more elegant and stable solution?

cheers, much appreciated :)

Got the same problem here: running Dutty's V4 ROM I can't connect if I have a static ip address listed for my WIFI connection. I did have the same issue once before on a 1.93 ROM which was fixed by a hard reset, but no joy with that this time.

well u can use wi-fi profiles, to make profiles for each ESSID with the static ip and wep key if any, i have 4 profiles each with different statics ip's and keys. and when using gprs, i just click on dhcp only and voila. altho i didnt had the problem with static + gprs data, i'm not using gprs so much, but still i think this is a good solution, will upload cab tomorow here ( i found it on this forum somewhere cant remember exactly) cheers

today I've tried to make a rom with new wm build and eom and drivers from 2.00 (which don't have this problem) but gprs doesn't work with static ip... so i think it is caused from last wm build... damn microsoft

[luxnax]

I'm having a similar problem - I have a static IP and can not connect to wi-fi unless connected to activesync...

Can the wifi profiles program help? If so what do I have to do on it? Do I have to change any values?

Any other ideas?

His!…

the same problem with Touch PRO from the update of ROM.

Installing the old ROM it even follows the problem.

I have the same problem as well. I can connect to wifi at home with or without activesync , but sometime I can't connect free wifi at Mcdonald or car wash. Can someone help pointing out problem? or setting I need to do. Many thanks

I'm having the same problem with wm 6.1 build 21043, this sucks so much. I thought it was a problem with the hardware in the Diamond at first, but so many other people are having it that it's more than likely a problem with Windows Mobile.

Any fixes?

Turn on DHCP server on, that means AP will gives you automatically IP, and you can use wireless connection...

In options in "select networks" , select "my work" or something similarly, don't use ISP!

I don't have problem with active DHCP server on my HTC diamond, and i can use everywhere wireless connection...

I use Cloudy1.1 rom
