My company uses the "&lt;" character in the wireless network's SSID. I'm running a Dell Axim with 2003SE on it. It doesn't allow this character... any way to get around this?

I'm not entirely sure, but you might want to try using the Funk Odyssey client. (http://www.funk.com/download.asp?acg=6) It's not a pretty solution, but it may help. Definitely try the trial first though, as it's not an inexpensive piece of software. And since you say this is for work, maybe you can get them to buy you a license for it. ;)

Good luck and let us know how it goes. :)

Hmmm... I thought I would get an Email if I had a response. Sorry. I will give it a try tomorrow when I get in tomorrow and let you know. I sure hope so.

Only if you hit "Watch this topic for replies" at the bottom. :)

Only if he checked that option in his preferences.

I may have problems watching a topic... but I can get online at work now!

The Funk Odyssey client did the trick. How nice to be wireless at work again. Thanks for the help folks.
