Appendix B Hints and Tips
Choosing the Right Applications
Not all applications are ideal for wireless networking. For example,
downloading a large file wirelessly takes longer than it does over a landline
phone line with a regular modem. Experiment with your applications to
determine which ones work best for you wirelessly.
Using Multiple Modems
Pocket PCs and other Windows CE-based mobile computers can support
multiple modems, but you must create a separate dial-up connection for
each modem that you use. When making a data call, you must select the
dial-up connection for the specific modem in use.
To create multiple dial-up networking connections, follow the steps outlined
in the “Set up Remote Networking” section for your mobile computer type,
but include the following modifications:
1. In the Make New Connection screen, when naming connections, select
names that clearly distinguish the modem in use. For example, you might
choose "Internet Service Provider-Wireless" and "Internet Service
Provider-Landline."
2. In the Select a modem: box, choose Socket DPC Connection for a
wireless connection. Choose your existing modem for a landline
connection.
