Problems Connecting To The Internet After Installing ActiveSync 4.2?

This allows for improved compatibility in environments where connections to the internet must be passed through these LSPs (ISA Proxy is one such example)."</i><br /><br />If you have an LSP and ActiveSync 4.2, you should check out the above article and consider installing the registry hack that corrects the issue.

It would be good to post how to undo this regitry modification. I applied it and my ActiveSync acts strange...

If you are comfortable using the registry editor you can simply remove this value from the registry:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services]
"AllowLSP"=dword:00000000

Just delete the "AllowLSP" Value. That was all that was added.

did it fix your internet connection problem?

Yes, Ed after removing this change my ActiveSync / Axim X51v work again over USB. Before that I had to sync over Bluetooth.

It looks like this only apply to some WM5 phone edition...

I fixed my AS 4.2-related Internet connection issues with WinsockxpFix.exe - now it works as it should.

no, I meant did applying the registry fix correct the problem you were having connecting to the internet before you read the post today?
