hmmm, could you provide me with additionnal details: - when you say it "cannot connect", what error message / exception do you get when you try to ? - does DNS resolution work (especially if you can set the y.y.1.y DNS server as the first one in your host DNS server list ?)
note that "ping" is not supported in the emulator anyway, but TCP/UDP connections to the outside world should work, as long as the emulator application is not blocked by a firewall or something like that. the network settings in the Android emulator are pretty simple: gateway is set to 10.0.2.1 which is a special address used by the internal router/firewall. the latter will translate any TCP/UDP request into a BSD socket connect() to the corresponding target address. then, it is your host OS responsability to properly connect to the outside world. the exception is DNS, where the emulated system will try to connect to 10.0.2.3 which is a special address that is mapped to your first host DNS server (in this case, it would be z.z.0.z) On Mon, Apr 28, 2008 at 2:22 PM, patrick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > hi, > > I have experienced networking problems with android.
