hmn well it seems ya can let the ipaq search for itself for network etc, it says connected and gives a signal strenghth of around 70 %



but if i try and open explorer or msn messanger they cant connect


has anyone any ideas?

if your router is set up for dhcp , do you get an i/p address on the ipaq ?

ensure you have no router security on to start, or add your ipaq's mac address to the allowed list.
then check the network connections and you should see your router advertised.(advanced tab)
hold stylus on this connection and select connect.

thats all i had to do.

mind you, i'm using a netgear router and a 4150
