Pocket PC Forum / End Users / Wireless / November 2003Wireless Internet Connection Sharing with IPAQ
Hi I have just gotten myself an Ipaq 2215 and an Ambicom CF 802.11b card. I have installed the new CE.NET drivers for the wireless card so everything should be fine with that. In my home I run a wireless network with Internet Connection Sharing through the computer with the access point How do I link to the Internet with my IPAQ through the shared internet connection I can get the Ipaq to link to the wireless system, but I cannot get to the Internet How to do?? Any help is VERY appreciated, thanks Peter Lumbye Can't you sync your iPAQ via ActiveSync and the wireless connection then use the 'pass through' of ActiveSync to share the connection?

I've exhausted all of my options to get pass-through working. I don't know what else to do. --Russ > That's an idea, however the computer with the Internet connection is not the computer that I want to sync my Ipaq with.

Win98 does not "see" CE devices so dhcp does not work... however, assigning a static ip on the ppc will allow Win98 ICS to work.

I don't have XP answers... suggest disabling ZoneAlarm and AV for a test to exclude them from the possibilities.
