This is a private IP address on the Mobile network, unfortunately the public Internet.

Remote control over the net of the phone is therefore not possible in this way.

I suppose it could be possible if you could connect it to your own mobile network and assign addresses from the public address range.

I wonder if even i get that subnet IP address set by the ggsn, i'd be able to control the handset, the GPRS network firewall might be blocking the application.

Anyway, this should be investigated further, it's opening the door to interesting hacking I guess...😉

You could probably develop an application that controls one phone from another phone on the same mobile network as the handsets would be on the same private network!!!

As for Internet access the carriers are acting as an ISP for mobile cistomers to access the net through WAP.

If you connect to your ISP via your phone as a modem you are using the mobile network as a tunell to the internet.

So you could try to remotely control one phone from another, but I doubt the internet, good luck though.

Hi,

[quote="Anonymous"]*****Solved*****

To all that responded thanks. The solution was similar to suggested but as follows. Install 3 Com and ensure works with phone ie connects. Install PCsuite 1.0 or 1.1 go to the Intuwave directory and copy the MrouterSerial.dll to a tempoary locatation. Uninstall PcSuite. Install PcSuite V1.2. Now the tricky bit. You need to stop the Mrouter/Connection Manager/Broadcast/econnect programs that the suite runs at startup by using cntrl/alt/del and end these progs or in W2k/XP stop in the services tab. Now overwrite the Mrouterserial.dll with the old version you stored and reboot and it all works!

I would just like to go back to the topic of this post and thank Tony and the others for solving this issue. I have replaced the mrouterserial.dll with an older one and now everything works fine. Com3 und Com4 are visible and the sync with Outlook worked!

There remains only one question: how do you switch between online and offline mode? The only way seems to be to kill all Bluetooth and MRouter processes, start BT again, connect the phone, start MRouter again and check the Com-Ports? There should be a simpler solution, but I did not find any yet...

Thanks a lot again,

BTW: Tony, nice to see you again after your answer in Forum Nokia 😊

Glad it all worked. I have found no way other than shutting down Mrouter etc but I have found if you start the 3 Com connection manager first then PCsuite it loads all the programs and does not need the com ports selecting again. Seems the order of events is important!

Yes tried that but then I got NO ports! I am suspicious it may be a W2K thing with SP3 perhaps someone else has had a prtoblem with this set up

I have same problem, win xp, suite 1.2.0, mrouter only shows IR Port, no comport and no bluetooth!

[quote="g3uiss"]Matt

As you only need the Mrouterserial.dll I can email this to you ziped up its only 273K before compression. You can then install V1.2 and copy this over after the install taking note to stop the programs. Advise an email address

Hello Tony,

can you E-Mail the Mrouterserial.dll to me too?
[email protected],

Guest 27 Apr 2003, 13:02

I have the same problem with Windows 2000 and mRouter (no ports available).

Please, can anybody send me the mrouterserial.dll v1.1?

Thank you very much from Barcelona,

Is there any good reason to upgrade to 1.2?

I've got 1.0 working fine (with 3com) and now feel slightly nervous about upgrading.

What extra bits would I get?

I thought you were after 1.1?

Is posting a dll for a commercial product allowed under forum rules?

Send us a PM and I'll mail it to you (when I get home this evening)

I'll post the dll after I've checked with admin...

SwitchBlade 01 May 2003, 14:16

Ok from what I've gleamed reading through the thread, the .dll is part of the PC Suite, which Nokia give freely on their site so you can communicate with your device. Therefore the .dll should be able to be freely distributed in the same manner to the way the old PC Suite was. I see no problem with people sharing this file, also has anyone with the problem informed Nokia and explained the solution to them?

wahchild 01 May 2003, 14:21

Thanks for that 😊

I've bunged a mail to Nokia forum to highlight the issue to them

Will post the dll in roughly 4 hours (when I get home)...

willbrady 01 May 2003, 14:22

Found the file - and it works a treat!!! 😊

I see no reason for NOT sharing it - as you say, it's free software and at some point in time we ALL had it on our original CD's when we bought our phones.

Enjoy

Hi All

Seems I started somthing when I posted the advice to use the older mrouterserial.dll. Many have requested this from me by PM which I have done. I assumed like the above as the software was in the public domain downloadable from a open site there could be no issues.

I am pleased that this has helped so many and if the file is up here I will get a rest from PM's requesting it!!!

Good luck to all

Tony

Wonder if Nokia appreciate the feedback.....

Hi guys,

1st off, thanx 2 Tony 4 sending me the file, much appreciated.

I contacted Nokia and informed them of my problems and they r aware of the issue and know that it is Mrouter that causes the problems. Nokia r currently working on PC Suite 1.3 and will upload it 2 their site soon. Until then they agree that the Mrouterserial.dll/Intuwave copy over is the only solution.

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem 2 work 4 me. Maybe it's coz i'm running XP Pro, i'm not sure, but i've given up 4 now 😞 1 thing that was apparent was that when i copied it over, there was no existing Mrouterserial.dll file 2 overwrite. Is this normal, or have i got a screwed up install ?

Cheers guys,

Rob.

Hi

I think you may be looking in the wrong place. The MrouterSerial.dll is in the Intuwave directory NOT the Nokia one. You need to navigate to the bottom of the tree and then overwright the file. NB you cannot do this inless you stop all the Mrouter Programs by using Cntrl/Alt/Delete and stoping Broadcast.exe, Mrouterruntime.exe . Errorlog, connectionmanager, etaskmanager.exe. Then you can overwrite the file reboot and ...should all work!
