Socket Mobile E500 - Manual (Page 23)

STEP 3: Install Authentication Certificate(s)
1. If you have not done so already, get a root (server) certificate from
your network administrator. The root certificate must come from a
Trusted Root Authority (not an intermediary authority).
2. If Socket Go Wi-Fi! is inserted into your Pocket PC, remove it.
3. Make an active connection between your Pocket PC and host PC. Use
ActiveSync and a serial/USB/Ethernet cable or cradle.
4. Use My Computer or Windows Explorer to access your Mobile Device
and copy the root certificate into your Pocket PC. Remember where
you save the certificate.
5. On your Pocket PC, use File Explorer to navigate to the file location.
Tap on the certificate.
6. A message will ask if you want to install the certificate. Tap Yes.
• If your network uses PEAP, disconnect your Pocket PC from the host
PC. Soft reset the Pocket PC by pressing the reset button. Now you
are ready to proceed to page 23 to find a WLAN and create a profile.
• If your network uses EAP-TLS, you also need to install a personal
(client) certificate.
7. To install a personal certificate, start Wi-Fi Companion.
Tap Start | Programs | Wi-Fi Companion.
