Hello all,

I have setup a web site with IIS in windows 7, when I open the browser in the simulator and write the address of the site (h t t p : / / l o c a l h o s t : 8 0 0 0 / h e l l o . h t m l) I can see the page Hello World! on the browser, same using IP address instead of local host.

When I connect the blackberry device with the PC with the USB cable I can not connect and I receive the error 504 in the browser and -no route to host- (113) in details. I connect with WI-FI to my network and I also get the same errors when trying to access the web site.

Does someone know what is happening and how to solve this problem?.

I am using windows 7 professional, eclipse and Blacberry JDE 5 and 6, my device is bold 9700.

Thank you very much for your help.

It is not surprising that you can not access your local network through USB or wireless, that's how it works.

When trying to connect using Wi-Fi are you using the HotSpot Browser or the default browser (which is probably the Internet Browser)?

The blackberry needs to go to the carriers site then to RIM then to the online internet web page. Unless you have it open on the internet your out of luck testing the way you are.

Here are some screen shots of my Torch accessing the web server on my Wi-Fi router using the Wi-Fi connection. The Torch has OS6 wich picks the connection for you. Unless your 9700 has OS6 you will have to use the Hotspot Browser, or append ';interface=wifi' to your URL for programatic access, on OS5 or lower.

First using the domain name (my router provides local DNS services):


And using the local IP address:

Thanks for your answer, after doing some research in the internet and some tests I finally connect to my wifi network, one main point is to set hot spot browser in the balckberry.

Yes that is the case on OS 5 and lower. OS 6 no longer has separate browsers.

By the way, the OS in your profile should be the OS version of your Blackberry, not your PC.
