Does anyone know how to change the timeout settings for ActiveSync in the PPC's registry? Can this even be done?
Here's my problem. I am syncing via WiFi and as long as the PPC is already on - it works great every time. However, if the PPC has 'gone to sleep' (shut itself off) I am having problems. I am syncing automatically via the Mobile Schedule settings. Every two hours, the PPC wakes up and begins to try to sync - except that my WiFi card takes a bit of time to re-initialize and then connect to the network. Unfortunately, this delay is just a bit longer (about 2-3 seconds) than ActiveSync is willing to wait. The result - I get an ActiveSync error message on the PPC 'unable to connect'.
I have looked through the registry - but an unsure which setting to adjust, if any. Can anyone help !
(PS - this was posted in the 'Wireless' forum - but wasn't getting any responses, so I moved it here)
