Hi all,

Being new to the PPC I am trying to figure out the connection manager.

I am wondering if you could point me to some tutorials on it.

I can connect via Wifi and via my cell phone, but have to switch the connection each time. Is that how its done, or should it do it on its own??

Well thanks!!!

Manually.
I think that the newer connection managers are supposed to do automatically but somehow don't.

Unfortunately, the Connection Manager isn't documented at all anywhere in a way that is really understandable. See for example http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=39784 on this.

This is a guide to the 2003 connection manager http://theillustratednetwork.mvps.org/WM2003/Connection_Manager/ConnectionManager.html

This is a discussion of the 2002 manager. The first attempt by Microsoft to ensure reduced internet traffic from PPC's :roll:
