iPaq 2215 Networking

[cab124]

I recently purchased a Linksys 802.11 CF card for my 2215 ($29 at CompUSA after rebate). I am using the Senao drivers as several people here suggested. I have a few questions...

1. I am completely lost about where to find configuration settings for this device on the 2215. On the desktop, I am able to view the properties of the wireless network connection. Where are these properties on the Pocket PC?

2. Shouldn't I be able to view a list of wireless networks in the area and chose which I want to connect to? Where would this be found on the Pocket PC? When I go to Settings / Connections, there is asection that says "Bluetooth Settings," but nothing else.

Thanks for any input!

Try this: Click on the connection icon on top of your 2215 display. That should be the opposite-pointing arrows if you're connected to a network. A prompt will show. Click on Settings. As you may notice, this got you to the Connections Settings screen which you can get to by clicking Start-Settings-Connections-Connections. I just showed you the shortcut. :wink:

Anyway, click the Advanced tab, and then the Network Card button. That should show you the available connections, if there are available connections. If there isn't, it will just show you the network card list. From this screen, and the previous screens, you should be able to get to the configurations screen that you're looking for.

Have fun! :D

Thank, rnuqui!

That is exactly what I was looking for. Now that I see it, I am not sure why I wasn't able to find it on my own. At the same time, I don't think the networking configuration is very intuitive on the Pocket PC. Its pretty easy to configure a desktop PC, but for some reason, the Pocket PC configuration just doesn't feel very logical.

Thanks again!
