hi all
I am finding it very difficult to connect my pda to the internet.

This is my setup:
- Broadband router (not wireless) connected to broadband modem.
- pc connected to router
- wireless usb connected to pc
- pda with wifi wireless adapter

My pc ip adress is automatically assigned by the router

What are the tcp/ip settings for both the wireless usb and pda wireless
adapter, in order to have internet connection on my pda?

Thanks for your help

Thanks for your reply Sooner, I tried to follow step by step the link, but no
luck! My pda won't get connected to the internet. Many times it finds and
establish a good connection to the wi-fi, but when I try to acess the
internet, a msg pops up :'this page cannot be displayed, check connection
settings'
It seems that I have the wrong gateway or dns settings. What do you think?
