Connecting to work
Connect to a work network or intranet using either:
• the wireless LAN connection you have set up and the handheld’s
internal WLAN radio.
• the dial-up modem or VPN server connection you have set up and
an external modem or mobile phone connected to the handheld
using Bluetooth technology or the optional serial clip.
To automatically connect to the network, start using the desired
program, for example Windows Explorer Mobile.
Note – If you have set up more than one wireless network connection,
you may need to manually select the connection you want to use .
To manually connect to work:
1. Set up a wireless LAN connection (see page 64), a VPN server
connection (see page 46), or a dial-up modem connection
(see page 45).
2. Remove the handheld from the support module.
3. Establish a physical connection between the handheld and the
network. If you are using:
– a wireless LAN connection, bring the handheld within range of
the network so that the handheld’s internal WLAN radio can
locate it.
– an external modem or mobile phone, connect it to the
handheld using either a Bluetooth connection (see Bonding
with a Bluetooth device, page 54), or the optional serial clip
(see Connecting to external devices, page 69).
4. Go to the Connection settings page, tap and hold the connection
you want to use and then tap Connect.
5. If required, enter your user name, password, and domain and then
tap
Connect.
6. Start using the desired program. For example, Windows Explorer
Mobile to locate files on the network. For more information, refer
