Vista and connection sharing for my PDA (WM5 / WM6)

[Guest]

Hello,

I have a WM5 based device (HTC Wizard) and Vista Ultimate x64 on my desktop.
I would like to share my dial-up Internet connection over wifi.

Using conncetion createor I made proper setting so desktop works as a
gateway (192.168.0.1). I tested the setting using my laptop with Windows XP
(IP of laptop 192.168.0.3/255.255.255.0, gateway 192.168.0.1, DNS
192.168.0.1) and it work fine.

On my PDA I set-up the connection and manually input following settings for
"SDIO WLAN Wireless Adapter"
IP: 192.168.2
mask: 255.255.255.0
gateway: 192.168.0.1
DNS: 192.168.0.1
PDA connects without any problems, but Internet doesn't work (and I don't
know why, given that the laptop works fine). I cannot ping 192.168.0.1, I
cannot ping ny DNS with static IP, I cannot ping www.google.com. Furthermore
I have also XP on my desktop as a 2nd system. I applied the same setting to
XP as were on Vista - not so hard to imagine that on this XP PDA connects to
Internet correctly.

What is going on? Microsoft, I would be grateful for your help.

I have a similar problem, I want to connect a telephone adaptor to ethernet
port of my laptop which in turn is connected via WiFi to router to ADSL. I
cannot turn on Internet Connection Sharing over WLAN. I am not sure whether
this is a Dell laptop problem (built in WiFi) or a Vista problem. Similar
set up worked with my old Compaq laptop using XP!
