Ok, through several hard resets and many soft resets I finally have pass through for ActiveSync and Windows Mobile 5 figured out. This might be wordy, but for anyone having difficulties using pass through it’s worth it to read. 1st of all do not mess at all w/ the settings in the network card or connections at all. ActiveSync will set everything automatically when you sync. If you mess w/ the settings like I did at 1st it will never work. Here’s how it does work. The connections are assigned to your Axim via DHCP. The reason it works then you get an error message like page not found or some other is because each time you close your internet connection on your desktop PC you must also go to control panel, network connections and disable your Axim connection. When you reconnect to the internet you then go to control panel, network connections and enable the Axim connection. ActiveSync will sync the connection giving you pass through and internet access w/ the Axim. You can be online w/ both the desktop and the Axim at the same time or 1 or the other. As long as you remember to disable the Axim connection after each time you disconnect the connection from your desktop and enable it after each time you reconnect from your desktop. This lets the ActiveSync do its job of assigning everything through DHCP, it has to aquire the addresses each time you connect to the internet, and it works perfectly. Have not had a bit of trouble since waking from my coma and figuring it out!!! Hope all goes as smoothly for anyone reading this post…
