Network connection problems

The following solutions may help if you encounter problems when using a network card for
network connections. Additional troubleshooting information is available in Connections Help on
the Pocket PC Terminal and ActiveSync Help on the desktop computer.
• Verify that you have an Ethernet card that is compatible with your Pocket PC Terminal.

• Verify that you have added necessary server information. Tap

and then Settings. On the

Connections tab, tap Network. Tap your installed adapter (usually your Ethernet card’s name)
and enter any necessary information. Most networks use DHCP, so you should not have to
change these settings unless your network administrator instructs you to do so.

• If Network Connection isn’t listed as a connection method in the ActiveSync dialog box when

starting synchronization, wait a few minutes and try again. Also, if synchronization does not
start right away, the network is probably busy, and it may take a minute for your Pocket PC
Terminal to connect to the network.

• Make sure that the proper drivers for your card are installed on the Pocket PC Terminal. For

more information, see the owner’s manual for the network card.

• Verify with your network administrator that your user name and password are correct.

• Verify with your network administrator that the network you are trying to connect to is

available, or try to connect to it from another computer.

• You may need to change the Pocket PC Terminal name if you are trying to connect to a network

and cannot because another Pocket PC with the same name is already connected. To change the
