Connections Manager

The connections manager sets up various network connections to Internet Service Providers (ISPs) via an external modem.

If you are using one of the on-board wireless radios to connect to a network, do not enter network parameters in the connections manager. The Dolphin terminal uses the radio’s settings to connect to the network.

Note: All server-assigned IP addresses use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). The zero-config WLAN feature of Windows Mobile is disabled on Dolphin terminals.

To open the connections manager, tap Start > Settings > Connections tab > Connections icon . The connection manager opens displaying the Tasks tab.
