To Look Up an IP Address

To find the IP address the wireless network is using:

1.While the WLAN is powered on and connected to the appropriate network, tap > Setting > the Connections tab > Network Cards icon > the Network Adapters tab.

2.In the My network card connects to: drop-down box, tap either The Internet or Work. 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, tap Work.

3.Tap the appropriate adapter in the Tap an adapter to modify settings: box, the IP address will now appear in the IP Address box on the IP Address tab.

4.To change TCP/IP settings if your ISP or private network does not use dynamically-assigned IP addresses, tap Use specific IP address and enter the requested information. Contact your ISP or network administrator to get the IP address, subnet mask, and/or default gateway (if needed).

5.To change DNS and WINS settings if your ISP or private network does not use dynamically-assigned IP addresses, tap the Name Servers tab and enter the requested information. Servers that require an assigned IP address may also require a way to map computer names to IP address. DNS and WINS are the resolution options supported on your T-Mobile MDA III.

6.5Terminal Services Client

Using the Terminal Services Client, you can log onto a PC running Terminal Services or Remote Desktop and use all of the programs available on that PC from your mobile device. For example, instead of running Microsoft Pocket Word, you can run the PC version of Microsoft Word and access all of the .doc files on that PC from your T-Mobile MDA III.

Connecting to a Terminal Server

Start a remote connection to the server via a GPRS or Wireless LAN connection:

1.Tap > Programs > Terminal Services Client.

2.To connect to a server you have previously connected to, in Recent Servers, tap a server. To connect to a new server, enter the server’s name in the Server box. Select the Limit size of server desktop to fit on this screen check box only when using applications that have been specifically sized for use with the T-Mobile MDA III.

3.Tap Connect.

NOTE: If the network administrator has configured Terminal Services Client to reconnect to disconnected sessions, and you previously disconnected from a Terminal Server without ending the session, the Terminal Services Client reconnects to that session.
