I have the same D-Link setup with my Socket WiFi CF card. Switching to "short preamble" solved a lot of problems.

Also, make sure you have the Gateway and DNS set corrently for your DWL900AP+ (on the "LAN" page). This is not set correctly by default.

maybe a stupid question but when you ping are using ip address or dns name, i'm wondering if it might be a dns issue.

Here are some random ideas. Absolutely no guarantees any of these will work, but hey, it's a quiet Christmas afternoon...

0. See if there are firmware upgrades for your router and/or access point, and make sure you upgrade to the latest EUU on the e740 if possible.
1. Set your laptop to the IP the e740 is using. Make sure the e740 is off when you do this :) (Similarly, move the e740 to a different IP.)
2. Don't set the default gateway on the e740 and see if you can ping it then. The default gateway is only used to reach outside addresses; even without the gateway set, you should be able to reach the router. Of course, if it's then reachable, you have a real problem, since you need the default gateway set to leave the 192.168.0 subnet.
3. Remove the default gateway from the access point and see if that makes any difference. Your access point, since it's a bridge and not a router, should not need the default gateway. Your workstations (and Pocket PC) use the access point to bridge onto the wired subnet and find the default gateway themselves.

Are you using DHCP or static IP addresses, btw?

You shouldn't have to do any of the above, but tweaking settings might reveal a clue.

Sometimes routers block icmp traffic (ping) by default. Can you ping the router from your PC?

Have you downloaded the latest firmware for your AP? Version 2.2 is available from the D-Link site.

Make sure the LAN settings for your AP is:

IP Address: 192.168.0.50
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.0.1
DNS Server: 192.168.0.1

The default settings have no gateway or DNS and I originally had the same problems from my PPC but not PC.
