    Appendix A 
    FAQ about Wireless LAN 
    A. Compatibility 
    A1: Should I useequipment with the same brand as the IEEE802.11b 
    WLAN Adaptor’s to enable the wireless communication? 
    This is not necessary. IEEE802.11b WLAN Adaptor is Wi-Fi certified 
    which means that it will work well with different branded equipment as 
    long as the equipment is also Wi-Fi certified. 
    A2: Can I connect IEEE802.11b WLAN Adaptor to other devices using 
    Bluetooth? 
    No, you can only connect the IEEE802.11b WLAN Adaptor to other 
    IEEE802.11b equipment. 
    B. Wireless LAN Connectivity 
    B1: How do I form a wireless network? 
    Typically, you can form a wireless network by connecting Access Points. 
    Different Access Points should have different channels. Every devices 
    connected to the network should have the same SSID. When you are 
    using Access Points, set the mode to “Infrastructure” mode. Without 
    Access Points, you can still build a network where adaptors communicate 
    peer-to-peer using a shared SSID. When you are not using Access 
    Points, change the operating mode to be “802.11Ad Hoc”. To set the 
    operating mode, click Start > Settings > System > Wireless LAN Utility > 
    Config.

    B4: What is 802.11 Ad Hoc Network? What should I do to form an 
    802.11 Ad Hoc Network?  
    802.11 Ad Hoc Mode is used to create a peer-to-peer connection without 
    an Access Point. The SSID must be the same among stations to enable 
    the wireless communication within the local area network. 
    You need to choose a proper SSID and channel for the first 802.11 Ad 
    Hoc station. For other stations want to join the same SSID group, you could only choose the same SSID as the first station for connection. The 
    Channel setting for the 802.11 Ad Hoc Network stations to join the 
    existing 802.11 Ad Hoc Network will automatically be set as the channel 
    number of the network.

    B5: What is the difference between “Infrastructure” and “802.11 Ad 
    Hoc” Network Mode? How do I choose? 
    Infrastructure Mode is used to connect your Pocket PC with the Access 
    Point. Usually, to form a Wireless Network, you can connect your Access 
    Point to the ADSL, Cable Model or LAN Ethernet and then configure the 
    Access Point base on the User Guide for the Ac- cess Point to set the 
    proper SSID, Channel and WEP security service. After that, configure the 
    IEEE 802.11b WLAN adaptor. Set the same SSID, Channel and WEP as 
    the Access Point’s. 802.11 Ad Hoc Mode allows your Pocket PC to form 
    its own local network where devices communicate peer-to-peer, using a 
    shared SSID, without Access Points. Under 802.11 Ad Hoc mode, the 
    SSID must be the same among stations so that the devices can 
    communicate properly within the Wireless Network. If you want to form 
    your network without any Access Points, you should choose 802.11 Ad 
    Hoc mode. 
    B6: Could I use the 802.11 Ad Hoc Mode to access the LAN 
    resources? How can I access the LAN resource without an Access 
    Point? 
    Yes , you can access the LAN resources without an Access Point . Follow 
    the steps shown below: 
    1 Make sure your host computer already successfully connect to the 
    LAN or Internet through the LAN Adaptor or the Modem. 
    2 Install the Wireless LAN Adaptor into your Host computer successfully 
    and set 802.11 Ad Hoc Mode and the proper SSID to form the 802.11 
    Ad Hoc Network. Install and enable the ICS (Internet Sharing 
    Software, such as “SyGate”...) function in your host computer. (Note 
    that the Windows 2K or later version, OS, supports the ICS function in 
    Local Area Connection Properties? Sharing)

    ENGLISH using  Euro_C.dot –– Printed on 10/05/2002 as PDA3_UK 
    C2: How do I wirelessly browse the Internet? 
    1 If your network uses DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), an 
    IP address and DNS (or WINS) will be assigned automatically. On your 
    Pocket PC, simply click Start > Setting > Connections > Network 
    Adaptors > IEEE802.11b WLAN Adaptor > Properties to set the proper 
    setting for Internet connection. 
    2 If your network does not use DHCP, you should enter the IP address, 
    subnet mask, gateway and DNS (or WINS).  
    IP Address is Internet Protocol Address; a numeric address such as 
    10.37.238.100 that the domain name server translates into a domain 
    name. Each node on the IP network should have a unique IP address. 
    Subnet mask is a number used to identify a subnetwork when 
    multiple networks share one IP address. For example 
    255.255.255.0Gateway is a device used to forward IP packets to and 
    from a remote destination. 
    DNS stands for Domain Name System, a database system, which 
    translates addresses and domain names. For example, a numeric 
    address like 232.245.021.54 can become something like cba.com. 
    WINS stands for Windows Internet Naming Service which has two 
    functions; one is a Microsoft Net BIO name server that eliminates the 
    broadcasts needed to resolve computer names to IP addresses by 
    providing a cache or database of translations. The other one is to set 
    the IP address of the host computer that you already construct the 
    partnership for Network adaptor Active sync purpose.  
    To set IP address, Subnet mask and Gateway, click Start > Settings > 
    Connections > Network Adaptors > IEEE802.11b WLAN Adaptor > 
    Properties > IP Address. To set DNS or WINS (Windows Internet 
    Naming Service), click Start > Settings > Connections > Network 
    Adaptors > IEEE802.11b WLAN Adaptor >  Properties > Name 
    Servers. 
    3 To ping your Pocket PC from your host computer. In the Host 
    Computer, open the DOS command mode window, type the 
    command “Ping” followed by the IP address, such as “Ping 
    140.124.40.112”. If you can see the reply from this IP address, the 
    connection is complete. You are now ready to browse the Internet 
    using Internet Explorer on your Pocket PC. 
    C3: How do I wirelessly check my e-mail? 
    1 Please make sure that you can use the ActiveSync function through 
    USB Interface at first, and make sure you can use the ActiveSync to 
    receive and send e-mail successfully. For corporate e-mail received 
    and sent, please check with your network administrator for necessary 
    connection settings. 
    2 Make sure you have entered the IP address of the host computer as 
    the WINS server on your Pocket PC. 
    3 Reset your Pocket PC to make the TCP/IP settings take effect and 
    execute the ActiveSync function in Pocket PC to enjoy the high speed 
    ActiveSync Wirelessly to receive and send e-mail.

    D. Settings 
    D1: What is SSID? What should I set in the SSID field? 
    SSID stands for Service Set Identification, which is the ID to form the 
    Wireless Network. You can set up to 32 characters in the SSID field. For 
    the Infrastructure Mode, you should set the SSID the same as the Access 
    Point been connected with. To create a 802.11 Ad Hoc Network, the SSID 
    must be the same among stations to enable the wireless communication 
    within the local area network. 
    You need to choose a proper SSID and channel for the first 802.11 Ad 
    Hoc station. For other stations want to join the same SSID group, you could only choose the same SSID as the first station, but the channel will 
    not take effect. The 802.11 Ad Hoc must enter the proper SSID. Blank 
    SSID for the 802.11 Ad Hoc Mode is not allowed. The stations want to join the 802.11 Ad Hoc Network must have the same SSID and are 
    suggested to have the same IP Address in the Network group. 
    D2: Why can’t I choose the “Channel” and “Country” field in “Infra- 
    structure” Mode? 
    For the Infrastructure Mode, the Country and Channel are decided by the 
    Access Point. You can only join the existing Access Point formed 
    Wireless Network but not create a new Wireless Network. That is the 
    reason why you can’t set the “Channel” and “Country” settings. 
    D3: When should I set the IP address, Subnet mask and Default 
    gateway settings? 
    When the Wireless Network does not have the DHCP server, you should 
    set your own IP address, Subnet mask and Default gateway for Wireless 
    Network connection. Otherwise, the OS might set the different Network 
    group IP address for you, which will cause the disconnection for the 
    Wireless Network. 
    D4: How can I set the IP address, Subnet mask and Default gateway 
    settings? 
    Simply click Start > Settings > Connections > Network adaptor > 
    IEEE802.11b WLAN Adaptor > Properties > IP Address to set IP address, 
    Subnet mask and Default gateway settings. 
    D5: What Transmit Rate should I choose for Wireless Connection? 
    Suggest you to use the “Fully Auto” option in the “Transmission Rate” 
    field for full Transmission Data Rate range to automatically adjust the Best 
    Communication Data Rate and to be compatible with other Low speed 
    802.11 Wireless Device.
