connecting to the internet via sync'ing

[chevybythesea]

I need a little help/advice. I am unable to connect to the internet via syncing with my computer (IE, while in the cradle). I have no problem elsewhere connecting wirelessly, (but don't have wireless at home). Can you help?

PS I have a Axim x51v 624, and it has all the updates.

I presumed you can access Internet from your desktop. To access the Internet via LAN (through your desktop):
1. Turn off the WiFi in your X51v.
2. Dock your X51v, as in ActiveSync.
3. Start PIE.

Give it a try.

Have you checked the settings in your PC to make sure that is is set to allow pass through connections to the internet ??? ( the PC needs to know it can act as a server).
