the Ethernet card, see the owner’s manual for the card.

do so. Tap ok. (If it does not appear or to change settings later, tap and then
Settings . On the Connections tab, tap Network and then the adapter you want to
change.)

Connection as the connection method and then tap Connect. Remote

start the connection, remove your Pocket PC from the cradle, tap the connection icon,
enter your user name, domain, and password, and tap Connect. Once connected, you
