Hello,  
  
Yes, you can establish a TCP/IP connection on your Windows Mobile device via  
  
Ethernet or WiFi.  
  
That said, once you establish your Windows Mobile device on your network, I  
  
would suggest using Resco File Explorer to access the shares and/or map the  
  
network drive.  It is a terrific little application for these kinds of  
  
things.  You can get more info on it at http://www.resco.net.  
  
Regards,

using the built in file explorer, tap the "open" icon at the bottom of  
  
the screen.  
  
You will need to manually enter the name of the computer with the share,  
  
but once connected, you can then browse that computer's shares.  
  
As Clinton mentioned, you cannot directly "open" files on the share  
  
using the ppc's file explorer, but you can copy files to and from the share.

I have been using ActiveSync to transfer data between my PC and Pockey  
  
PC. Can I use an Ethernet connection through TCP/IP similar to using  
  
Terminal Services client?  
  
Thanks in Advance

TotalCommander will let you navigate your PC file system using  
  
tree-style navigation on the handheld.  
  
I've been able to open image files stored on the remote PC.  
  
I can play remote MP3s, although Windows media player has buffering

Remote Html files open fine in PIE.

as Clinton also Noted,  Look into Resco file Explorer.  will give you the  
  
"tree" explorer you are looking for as well as the option to map network  
  
drives and open files directly from a network share. (i.e.  images, text,  
  
mp3's movies, etc...)

Might consider getting a tablet pc

If you want to wait until Monday, I will have a review of Resco File  
  
Explorer 2005 up on my site then.  About 90% complete at this point.  
  
Killer App (highly overused term) in my opinion...

[snip]  
  
It hardly seems worth it, for me at least. It would be nice to view  
  
images or text files for example without the need for copying them.  
  
When I click the Explore button in Active Sync 3.8 a standard Windows  
  
Explorer window opens. It has no 'tree' panel on the left. If I  
  
double-click a folder on my ipaq 4700 my Explorer replacement (the  
  
excellent Directory Opus) opens up - but without a 'tree' panel on the  
  
left.  
  
I can start Directory Opus normally and then expand the entry for  
  
Mobile Device and get my full customised view - but I still can't open  
  
files that are plainly visible.  
  
Thus I've learnt that there are limitations imposed by the ipaq's OS.

I can't get what you suggest to work. My Pocket PC wants to create a VPN  
  
connection when I try and access a shared folder on my home PC (peer to peer  
  
based on my ethernet DSL router/switch). Surely a VPN isn't necessary if I  
  
only want to access shares on my internal LAN.  
  
I've got the PocketPC connecting to the Internet by a WiFi connection to my  
  
DSL Router/Access Point and that works fine.  Surely my PocketPC is on the  
  
LAN side of the router, so I can't see why it is nessary to go in via VPN.  
  
In any case I have tried to set up a VPN connection on the Pocket PC and it  
  
doesn't work (though I assume I am not configuring it correctly).  
  
Be glad of any hints you could offer....

have you got your network connection set to 'Internet' rather than 'Work'?  
  
if you have, the PPC will try and route everything out - even wouldbe  
  
connections to a local pc.  
  
a so-called 'Work' connection will connect to 'internal' destinations and  
  
also to the Internet provided you tick the little box which tells it that it  
  
can.

Is there any chance you could talk me slowly through setting this up (or  
  
point me at a SIMPLE tutorial that will do the job).  
  
I have changed the options under Network Management, both to read "My Work  
  
Network" (the first one had been set to "My ISP"); now I can't connect to  
  
the Internet and also can't access my local PC.  
  
Duh!

Start -> Settings -> System -> Wireless networks, then either select the  
  
existing one (if it exists) or 'Add New..' if it doesn't.  
  
(to remove an unwanted one or start afresh, tap and hold the connection,  
  
then select 'Remove settings')  
  
Network name=name of your WiFi (- it's SSID)  
  
Connects to=Work  
  
Device to device=not ticked  
  
At the bottom, tap 'Network Key' tab  
  
Authentication=whatever you use (mine=WPA-PSK); could also be Open,Shared or  
  
WPA  
  
Data encryption=whatever you use (mine=TKIP); could be WEP  
  
Key is provided automatically=not ticked  
  
Network key field=your key/password  
  
Key index=1  
  
At the bottom, tap '802.1x' tab  
  
Use IEEE ...=ticked (default setting)  
  
EAP type=Smart card (default setting)  
  
Go back to Start -> Settings -> System tab -> Network Cards  
  
Tap 'Network adapters' tab at bottom  
  
My network card connects to=Work  
  
Select IEEE802.11b WLAN Adapter  
  
Tick either 'server-assigned' (it gets its IP number from router) or 'Use  
  
specific IP' and enter what you need for IP, mask and gateway.  
  
Go to 'Name servers' tab at bottom  
  
If it gets DNS from router or some other DHCP source, no need to enter  
  
anything.  
  
If it doesn't, you must enter something for DNS or the Internet will never  
  
work: you could try leaving it blank for now.  
  
Later on, if you always get 'Host not found' or similar when trying the  
  
internet, you may need to come back to this page and enter either your  
  
router's IP address or that of your ISP's DNS server.  
  
Tap 'OK' 3 times.  
  
Finally, Start -> Settings -> Connections  
  
Tap 'Set up my proxy' server line  
  
Tick 'This network connects to the Internet' and click OK.  
  
Tap OK twice; exit from 'Settings'  
  
Try a soft reset at this point and then try network.  
  
(Hope I got everything in the right order above; my connection is already  
  
working, so I just looked at the tabs in turn)

I have set things up following your instructions. When I try to acess the  
  
Internet it says I must set up a Proxy and when I try and access a share on  
  
my desktop it says, network path not found.  
  
I must still be missing one vital small detail
