Connect to WLAN
The Zero Configuration utility for Windows Mobile 2003 makes it quick and
easy to connect to WLAN networks, including 802.1x. For more details on the
utility, refer to the Windows Mobile 2003 manual. For help, tap StartHelp.
Whenever you insert the card, it will automatically start searching for: (1)
any WLANs advertising their ESSIDs; and (2) any WLANs you have saved
settings for. If your network administrator chose to not make the ESSID
visible, you need to first enter and save network settings, then try to
connect.
SCENARIO 1: The WLAN makes the ESSID visible.
1. A few seconds after you inserts the WLAN card, the Socket status icon will
appear in the menu bar. Do not tap on the icon.
2. A few seconds to a minute later, a bubble should appear reporting
detected WLANs. Select your WLAN and what it will connect to. Tap
Connect.
Note: In most cases, you should choose The Internet. If your network uses
a VPN/proxy server, refer to the Windows Mobile 2003 manual for
instructions.
The bubble will not appear if you have enabled the “Automatically connect to
non-preferred networks” setting, or if a connection already exists.
3. A User Logon screen will appear. Enter the User name and Password
and tap OK.
