Additional information:

We have been able to connect a laptop via the Access Port using a wireless
LAN card to browse the LAN and the Internet.

When I use the File Explorer on the PDA in order to access shared
directories on the LAN, I get the following message:

"VPN Server Problems.  Verify your user name and password, and try again."

When I enter a good URL in IE on the PDA, I get the following message:

"The page you are looking for cannot be found."
--------

The WAP11's ESSID is "MyESSID".

Under Connections, Advanced Tab, & Network Card Button, the PDA has a
Wireless Network entry of "MyESSID" that shows up as connected.
Network Access to Access points is allowed.
-----------

On the WAP11:

WEP is disabled (for now).
Authentication Type: Open system and shared key.
Operational Mode: Access Point
The "Link" LED is a solid amber color (The access point is successfully
connectd to a device via the LAN port.  However, it NEVER flickers, which
would indicate network activity.

The "Act" LED would normally be lit to green to show that other wireless
devices are accessing the Access Point and would normally flicker when data
is being sent back and forth.  The "Act" LED has NEVER lit up for my PDA.

Yet more info:

I assigned a specific IP address.
The subnet mask matches that of the LAN & the WAP11.
The default gateway IP address matches IP address of theWAP11.

The DNS IP is the same one assigned to my wired networked PCs.
The WINS IP is that same IP that is assigned to the workstation on the LAN
that has an ActiveSync 3.7.1 partnership with the PDA (I have only been able
to synchronize it via the USB cable).

Hope that this helps.

Update;

I used the vxUtil app.  Here is what I found.
Pinging from PDA whether connected to cradle or  disconnected from cradle
(AS):
   Request timed out when pinging to DNS IP, Desktop IP, WAP11 IP
   Good for PDA IP & loopback.

Lookup:
   When connected to cradle, I could look up the server and all
workstations on the LAN.
   When disconnected, got the message "Could not get IP address!" for the
same machines.

Get HTML:

When in cradle, got the following message:

Get HTML:

When disconnected from cradle got the following msg:Could not get IP
address!"

Thanks,

We figured it out.
