Syncing on a wireless network

Last attempt before this x51v goes on ebay or onto the freeway

.

Situation...

We have a secure wireless network at work in which I have obtained the key for. Our network guy has installed a certificate on my Axim as well. This is all with the goal of being able to automatically sync all my emails and calendar whenever I am in that wireless network. Is this possible?

I do have a laptop that is assigned to the network too and I have no problem with that. All I have to do is open Outlook when in the network and it syncs after a couple seconds. Won't the Axim do the same?

I can get on the network but I just can’t get it to sync. While in Activesync on my Axim I have gone under "Configure Server" and entered all the username and pw and exchange server address. But then when I have completed I try to sync and get "You have an incorrect SSL certificate common name in the Host Name field...Make sure the server name is entered correctly".

Where do I enter that or change that? I have "mail1.##.local" as the Server address.

Sorry for being all over the place on my explanation. Its just that I think I am so close but I am getting frustrated and also I get a little confused with the lingo that the Axim/Activesync uses to explain things.

If someone knows what I am attempting to do and can provide me with step by step instructions that would be great. After all, I might not even be close with the route I have taken.

You cannot sync an x51 over a wireless network. Only over bluetooth or by cable. You could actually sync to an exchange server. Not sure how you do it though. If you insiste on tossing it though I would love another axim.

Well, it is an exchange server that can be accessed over the wireless network. I am trying to figure out how to configure my axim to do what should be so simple to do.

Like I said, my laptop can be in the wireless network range and all I have to do is open Outlook and everything updates. Shouldn't my Axim be able to do the same? What setting would that require on my Axim?

Are you sure you're using the correct server address? In my case, I entered our Outlook Web Access (OWA) server address (xxxx.xxxx.com) and it works.
