Changing DNS and WINS Settings

Note: Most Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and private networks now use dynamically-assigned IP addresses. You will not need to change DNS and WINS settings unless your ISP or private network does not use dynamically-assigned IP addresses. If you are not sure, check with your network administrator.

Servers that require an assigned IP address may also require a way to map computer names to IP addresses. Your iPAQ Pocket PC supports two name resolution options:

■DNS

■WINS

To change server settings:

1.Contact your ISP or network administrator to determine which name resolution to use, obtain the specific server address, and determine whether alternate addresses are available.

Note: An alternate address may enable you to connect when the primary server is unavailable.

2.Be sure the WLAN is powered on.

3.Tap the Connections icon > Settings > Advanced tab > Network Card button > Network Adapters tab.

4.In the My network card connects to... dropdown box, tap either The Internet or Work.

Note: If you are connecting to your ISP at home, tap The Internet. If you are connecting to a private network such as a corporate network at work, you should tap Work.

5.In the Tap an adapter to modify settings box, tap iPAQ

WLAN Wireless Adapter.
