Mobility Site - View Single Post - Missing SYN packet outbound across firewall

mjfawke · 08-23-07, 12:39 AM

I'm in the process of changing my broadband (does 512Kb count? - I'm shifting to an Options Global Surfer II), and couldn't get the X51V to connect out through the new box using wireless. I stumbled across the error in the logs - when trying to make an outbound connection through the firewall on the box, it gets blocked by the stateful packet inspection because a SYN packet wasn't sent first. Any ideas? If I can't solve this I will have to maintain TWO wireless networks, one for my PC's and another just for the Axim. I might be able to disable the outbound check in the firewall, but there's nothing obvious in the setup...
