Situation: there is a wi-fi router, a laptop without a built-in wi-fi adapter and a PDA based on windows mobile. Question: Is it possible to use a pocket assistant as a wireless adapter for a laptop? Yes you can! Step one. On the wi-fi router we set TCP / IP parameters: IP address: 192.168.0.1 Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Step two. On the PDA, we set a static IP for the wireless adapter: Start> Settings> Connections> Network Cards> Network Adapters> CF8381PN Wireless Card> Use specific IP address IP address: 192.168.0.2 Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 Default gateway: 192.168.0.1
Step three. On the PDA, we activate the packet routing function: Here we need some kind of registry editor (for example, Resco File Explorer). HKLM \ Comm \ Tcpip \ Parms \ IpEnableRouter = 1 Reboot the device, turn on wi-fi. ')
Step Four. On the laptop: Cancel USB sync: ActiveSync> File> Connection Settings ...> Allow USB connections We connect the PDA to the laptop via USB.
