Appreciate this is probably simple but I can't find a solution. All answers seem to relate to getting on the internet.
I have my PC going through a router and I can conect my Vario to the web via WiFi on the router.
What i can't work out is how to make the Vario and the PC see each other.
Thanks for any help
Never had my PC to see PDA.
You can try to map drives in Pocket explorer.

I have O2 neo. I have used a friends HP pocket pc phone 6510, connected it to my home wi-fi router. Shared music files on my computer and browsed them thru the Phone. I am however not able to do that on my o2 Neo. Has anyone tried doing it ? I am connecting my O2 neo to my home router, have shared files on my computer. I am not able to figure out how to do it in Neo. Can any one please help !!!
Thanks in advance
I can accomplish this by means of Resco File Explorer's Network browser.
Just make sure you turn off any firewall (or configure it properly) to allow the incoming connection from the PPC.
Best regards,

I just bought a usb wi-fi dongle so that i can connect to my wizard in office over wi-fi. Can anyone give any pointers how can i do file sharing in ad-hoc mode in such a way that i can access files on my office PC through my wizard without having a separate access point.
I tried connecting through ad-hoc mode and my wizard connects to the PC but doesn't show any shared folders and cannot find my PC (not even through IP) when using resco file explorer...

To browse network folder on your HTC you should install some additional software. I've tried PocketLAN to share files between notebook and HTC via Wi-Fi. It've been working flawlessly. But you have to set IP and network mask on your HTC as it's in the office network.
Hmmm, i just installed pocketlan...I saw that my PPC gets an IP of 169.254.11.69 (subnet mask 255.255.0.0) and mycomp gets an ip of 169.254.87.204. Now am able to ping my comp using pocketlan on my PPC but am not able to map it. Whenever i try to do it, it says network address/name cannot be found.
that's strange What OS do you use?
You don't need any 3rd party software...
The Wizard will do this with it's built in file explorer.
Windows XP is the OS...
Did it finally after umpteen number of tries...Turns out ICS is necessary even for simple file sharing even though i do not want to surf net thru my PC's connection. And I also had to unplug my lan cable as the IP windows tries to assign once ICS is on is 192.168.0.x and this range is already used by my lan thus causing a conflict...Anyways, its better than nothing..I just wanted a faster medium to transfer files than BT which is painfully slow..
Any idea when are they going to provide an upgrade to BT 2.0 for wizard?
It is maybe a newbie question but after being unsuccesfull of finding it I thought I will ask.
I am looking to connect my pocket pc XDA orbit (wm6) to my laptop. I connect my laptop to internet through BT Home Hub. I am looking to connect PC and PocketPC just to exchange files, possibly Activesync if it is possible.
Basically I am looking to create a network between both deviced connected to the router.
Can you help?

VM Network Browser should do the trick
Hi,
I'm desperate. I tried now hours after hours but it will not work.
Here is what I want to do.
I have a Toshiba E800 WIFI, operating system is pocketPC 2003SE. Furthermore I have laptop (Windows XP Home) which is connected via wireless to my Router.
Now I will access from my PocketPC and from my laptop to the Internet. Ok, this works. Via WIFI I connect to the router and have access to Internet. Now I try to have access from my PocketPc to my laptop and backwards. This will not work!
I use static IP and when I do a ping from my Laptop (192.168.2.100) to my PocketPC (192.168.2.102) it works and backwards too. Also a ping to my router (192.168.2.1) works from both OS. But I cannot see my folders from the Laptop at the pocketPC and backwards.
I tried Resco explorer and Total commander but it worked not, too.
Can anybody help me to fix the problem before I go crazy?
Thanks a lot.
Can nobody answer this question?
I think I have an error in reasoning but I cannot get on it at the moment.
if your router use wifi and your pda got wifi
you just connect to your router your pc dont need to be on
and unless you have some odd router settings setup
dhcp should auto fill ip gateway and dns to your pda
and give it access to the internet
Yes thank you this works too.
I conect to the Internet via DHCP-Router which is no problem but I have not access to my folder on my laptop and from my laptop to my PDA. This is the problem. Is there any software which can do this for me or can I do some settings in windows by my own?
I think the problem is gone now, the swith for WIFI is broken, sh...
Anybody knows if there is a software possibility to switch it on??
Good Morning all. I have searched for days, not only this site, but many others, and as of yet, no appropriate solution. Hopefully someone more versed than me with the Wizard might help.
Here is the scenario....I am able to connect my HTC Wizard to the WiFi of my roommates router. He is connected to DSL 3.5 Mbps. On the Wizard I can surf the internet, no problem. I have a computer in my room, but it does not have a wifi card. I am wanting to use my Wizard to connect my computer to the internet via USB, using the connection (WiFi) that exists on my Wizard.
So far, I can connect to my computer through active sync and browse the files on my Wizard. I also am able to tether my Wizard to my computer via Internet Sharing on my EDGE connection. I do notice when I connect my Wizard that is connected to WiFi it shows a LAN connection in the taskbar at bottom right, however, when i try to navigate to any web page in internet explorer, google chrome, or firefox, it comes up with the error like I am not connected.
I know there is a simple fix for this, but I am frustrated and tired of searching to no avail. Thanks in advance many times over.
