AFAIK there is no model of the x51v that does not run Windows Mobile 5. Therefore, you are probably running ActiveSync 4.0 or later - and, if so, wireless syncing has been disabled.

You might try AirFix for free.

According to the makers, Airfix will re-enable your ability to connect to your WM5.0 device using ActiveSync and a wireless network connection.

It does NOT allow you to sync wirelessly but DOES allow you to use the device on a wirless network after you have synced.

I have not used this free software but you can get more info and download it and tell us about your experiences.
