Network route in Symbian

[Mikchel]

Hello.
In my application i need to use WLAN as a server and GPRS conection as a client. I opened 2 network sessions with different IAP - WLAN and GPRS.
Server side via WLAN works fine - QTcpServer accepts connection from my WiFi device but i can't connect via GPRS client (QTcpSocket) to some remote server. I get socket timeout error.
WLAN interface has IP:169.254.58.46
GPRS interface has IP: 172.28.163.149
Server has IP: 172.29.36.44

It seems that client doesn't find route path to remote server as they in different subnets.
How can i set default route address to Symbian route table or may be there is some other solution for my problem?

WBR,

Hi,

I am not an expert regarding this issue but this article might be useful: http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.php/TSS000265_-_Specifying_routing_settings_to_a_specific_socket_connection

Please note that it is written using the native Symbian C++ framework which can be successfully combined with Qt source code.

Best regards,
Leon

Hi, Leon.
Thank you for your answer.
I think this article is useful for me. It's a strange thing - i searched in forum for adding gateway to network but didn't find that article.
I solve my problem some other way: i use only one APN in each moment of time and start/stop other APN when it needs to send anything.
It may be worse solution so i consider to use your advice.

I am glad that the link is useful :)

Please also read this article as it shows good practices how to keep Symbian C++ and Qt code separated: http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.php/CS001642_-_Using_environment_macros_to_differentiate_platforms
