Connections Manager
Microsoft’s connection manager sets up various network connections to Internet Service Providers (ISPs) via external modem.
All server-assigned IP addresses use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
If you are using one of the on-board wireless radios to connect to a network, do not enter network parameters in the connections
manager. The Dolphin terminal uses the radio’s settings to connect to the network.
Note: The zero-config Wi-Fi feature of Windows Mobile is disabled on Dolphin terminals.
To open the connections manager, tap Start > Settings > Connections tab > Connections icon . The connection
manager opens displaying the Tasks tab.
Task Tab
The Task tab enables you to initially configure, then manage network settings when using a modem. Select an item in this list
and then complete the setup screens that follow with the appropriate information for your network.
My ISP
The links under this heading enables you to add and manage modem connections to an ISP. To complete the setup screens,
obtain the following information from your ISP:
• ISP dial-up access telephone number
• Username
• Password
• TCP/IP settings
My Work Network
These links enable you to establish the following connections types:
• Modem
• Virtual Private Network (VPN)
• Proxy server connection
To complete the setup screens, obtain the network parameters from your system administrator.
Proxy Server Connections
If you are connected to your ISP or private network during synchronization, the terminal should download the proper proxy
settings during synchronization with the PC. If these settings are not on your PC or need to be changed, ask your ISP or network
administrator for the proxy sever name, server type, port, type of Socks protocol used, and your user name and password.
