Guest sockpuppet Posted August 3, 2007 Report Posted August 3, 2007 I don`t use GPRS on my phone as I have so much free wireless access wherever I go. This causes a problem when trying to use windows live or the messenger that comes pre-installed with windows mobile 6 as these only connect through GPRS or network if the USB cable is connected to a PC. Does anyone know of a hack or setting to get these to work over wireless? Thanks SP
Guest looeee Posted August 3, 2007 Report Posted August 3, 2007 Have you tried deleting all the gprs and wap settings?
Guest Confucious Posted August 3, 2007 Report Posted August 3, 2007 It is designed NOT to work over WiFi AFAIK there is no hack to get it to work but it I'm sure someone will get round to it.
Guest looeee Posted August 3, 2007 Report Posted August 3, 2007 works absolutely fine for me, with all the other connections having been deleted
Guest Confucious Posted August 3, 2007 Report Posted August 3, 2007 interesting - it's not supposed to! MS tried to stop people using it with WiFi but obviously haven't succeeded!
Guest looeee Posted August 3, 2007 Report Posted August 3, 2007 an alternative suggestion (which I haven't tried) from the beta newsgroup: go into the connection settings in your phone and change the "preferred networks" to "Work" from "Gprs" connection as the default
Guest blowdart Posted August 3, 2007 Report Posted August 3, 2007 interesting - it's not supposed to! MS tried to stop people using it with WiFi but obviously haven't succeeded! Where did you hear it doesn't work over wifi; if the connection type is automatic then wifi takes precedence on all internet software.
Guest sockpuppet Posted August 6, 2007 Report Posted August 6, 2007 Have you tried deleting all the gprs and wap settings? My GPRS settings are empty, can't find anything under wap! I found preferred networks for Internet Explorer mobile and changed this to "work" and its fine over WiFi, but can't find anything for windows live / messenger. I have ROM version 1.15.405.2
Guest Retard-X Posted August 12, 2007 Report Posted August 12, 2007 When i had my spv e650 orange had removed the windows live feature but i managed to find the beta and install it, and that worked over my wifi no probs the only prob i noticed with it was when you left the handset the wifi turned off after a certain amount of time (i guess you can change this in an option somewhere but i couldnt be botherd) and therefore windows live disconnected it reconnected instantly soon as i started using the handset again tho
