Re: Connecting A Windows Mobile 5 up to a wireless network?
 

Change your view to fit screen or similar or what ever suits you best, there are a lot of options, of course I'm talking from an XDA and similar's point of view, I would imagine you have something similar. So, you have it installed, is your wi-fi on ? If so, what happens now when you start HH ?

Re: Connecting A Windows Mobile 5 up to a wireless network?
 

Actually it's not, whichever operator he has will be shown, highlight it and its a short cut to Comms Manager.

The long way, is Settings, Connections, more, WLAN settings, WiFi.

how do you change view?

Re: Connecting A Windows Mobile 5 up to a wireless network?
 

You know, on that Ebay page, Wifi isn't mentioned as a feature, and the Wireless Manager screen shot shows wifi as off.
My PDA doesn't have wifi, so if I want to use it for wireless internet, I have to connect to my PC via bluetooth and do it that way.
I do have a wifi CF card, just don't have Windows Mobile 5 drivers for it.

Re: Connecting A Windows Mobile 5 up to a wireless network?
 

Anyway, i pressed the select button and a window popped up saying no WLAN was found, so turn it on or press cancel to quit

Looks like there is no WLAN card in the phone?

Maybe i need one of those cards! Were did you get it?

Re: Connecting A Windows Mobile 5 up to a wireless network?
 

OK, you still haven't answered the question, start>settings>connections. Do you have a wlan icon or similar. At least that way we can rule out what you have or have not got, and what you can do.

Whole load listed.
I might just get a new SD one as they look like they're only around £20 posted and I'm not using my SD slot (the beauty of having a PDA with both SD and CF slots rather than smart phone with only SD).
Remember if you currently have a SD card with programs installed, you won't be able to access them when using the WIFI SD card.

Hmm, for £25 you can get 54Mbps ones, tempting.

Right, bought one, don't tell Faulty or she'll kill me :D

ah, my memory card slot is mini sd, and also i would need to take my 2gig out?

Re: Connecting A Windows Mobile 5 up to a wireless network?
 

And what do you get under wifi settings or manager, is there an option to turn on ? If so, turn it on and try again. Or have you tried this but not told us ????

The bottom right one is the Wireless manager

When i tap it it stays on the off position, but when i close the wireless manager and go back to it it says Unavaliable instead of Off

Re: Connecting A Windows Mobile 5 up to a wireless network?
 

Mmmm, that would suggest that you haven't, as has been said, got the necessary hardware installed. Additional hardware is not my thing, to a popint I have my set up, but beyond that :nono: so I'll let someone else try and steer you...........good luck :tu:

Re: Connecting A Windows Mobile 5 up to a wireless network?
 

Not aware of any mini sd cards other than memory.
Looks like wifi is a no-no for your device.


Tell a lie, just searched on ebay

Yes, you'd have to swap out your 2GB card for it, assuming it will actually work.

Re: Connecting A Windows Mobile 5 up to a wireless network?
 

Thanks anyway, bloody phone, i might complain to the seller!

---------- Post added at 14:08 ---------- Previous post was at 14:06 ----------

errrrr, is there any other sort of wireless adapters for phones or only the ones that go into the memory card slot?

i might have to get one :(

Re: Connecting A Windows Mobile 5 up to a wireless network?
 

Oh dear. Looks like Dragon is right - no Wi-Fi installed (doesn't say it on the auction :( )
SD card is the only way then.



I have no operator shown on mine at all and never have had - doesn't matter what SIM I put in it.

Heres a mini SD: Link
