Mobility Site - View Single Post - No Axim Internet Access after ROM/WM2003 Update

Hi All,

I hate to ask this, but could someone spell out exactly how to give my Axim - now with gorgeous WM2003 - access to the Internet through my PC's cable internet connection? Is there a resource somewhere that I have missed (I checked this forum thoroughly, and Microsoft's useless site)?

I just updated my Axim to WM2003 (ROM A05) and while it is beautiful and fun (and working), I now cannot get to the Internet for updating my Journal Bar, etc.

ActiveSync does its synch job very well, but I can't get to the Internet using the USB cradle....I had Internet with PPC2002 (I was not ever sharing my connection, as some users have suggested to do in the forum, and that doesn't work anyway for me). I am sure the solution is simple, it just has eluded me for several hours.

In ActiveSync: Pass-through is activated (this PC connects to: INTERNET, though I also did "WORK"), Detect Ethernet/RAS is activated, even the annoying "start ActiveSync when connected" is activated. And several reboots...

On Axim: All is set to Work. I tried VPNs etc, nothing. It always wants a modem, etc.

I am sure I am doing something wrong. Please help!

You should know that Wifi is just around the corner for my Axim, but I want to solve this problem first.
