Hey fellas, this guy gave, me awesome help so im gonna pass it onto you!

you gotta follow it to the T tho

From Johnny Blaze:

I am on Comcast and I have the same router. Problem is probably with your pocket pc setup.

As far as setting the different options on your router, go to http://192.168.0.1 on your PC and that will access the router configuration.

On your pocket PC try pocket hosts and put in the IP address and name of your PC. IP address router sets by default for your pc will be 192.168.0.2

Configuration of wireless card

On your pocket pc go to Settings>Connections>Network adapters

Choose the adapter you are using and click properties.

Try using a static IP address in the 192.168.0.3-192.168.0.50 range..these are the defaults for your router from the factory.
Subnet mask should appear once you assign the Linksys card an IP adress..if not use 255.255.255.0
Default gateway will be your Router 192.168.0.1

To get your name servers, right click on My network places on your computer. Click on properties then select icon for your home PC's connection to the internet. DOuble click it then go to the support tab and click details to get the DNS and alt DNS. Put these into your pocket pc and leave wins blank.

Now on to setting up your connection. On Pocket PC go to Start>Settings>Connections

Click on connections
Set all 3 dropdowns to Work Settings or work

Under the second dropdown click Modify
then click VPN

Select name of your connection. or new if none are listed
Double CLick the name

Under Host name enter the IP adress of your home PC ( if using router defaults it is 192.168.0.2 )

Now click on advanced then on use specific IP adress. Set it to the ip adress of your host PC..192.168.0.2 if using router defaults.

Use the same name servers you got from the setup of your Cf adapter above. once again leave WIns blank. Click ok then ok again and go to Proxy tab

Put a check in the first box and leave the second one blank.


Now go to active sync on your PC and make sure you have network connections enabled . Then on your pocket pc open up activesync. Click on tools then options. Check Include PC when syncing remotely.... the host name you entered earlier should be in the dropdown at this point. select it.


Click on server tab now. DO NOT checkmark anything just put your server name (192.168.0.2) where it asks for server name.

Now go to schedule tab. To make things easier for you uncheck any option that is checked

Click ok then sync and browse to your hearts content.

== im even writing this whilst im onlinel. Thx JB!
