To configure a WIFI connection on a Windows Mobile 6.5, complete the following:
- Selecting 'Wireless Manager':
- If the MobiControl client is already installed, tap 'Wireless Manager' under the 'Extras' menu on the Ruggedised Apps screen.
- If the MobiControl client is not already installed, tap 'Settings' under the Programs menu, select the 'Connections' tab and tap 'Wireless Manager'.
- Ensure the 'WLAN' option in the Wireless Manager is highlighted.
- Select 'WLAN Settings' from the 'Menu' option bottom right hand corner of the screen.
- Tap the wireless network you want to connect to.
- Ensure 'The Internet' is selected as the 'Connects to:' option and tap 'Next'.
- Select the 'Authentication' method and the 'Data Encryption' type. Typically use WPA2-PSK for networks requiring a network key and WPA2 for networks not requiring a network key.
- If a network key is required, enter the 'Network key:' and tap 'Next', otherwise just tap 'Next'.
- If prompted for an 'EAP type:', this is typically 'PEAP' and tap 'Finish', otherwise just tap 'Finish'.
- For some corporate networks a network log on is required. If prompted for a 'Network Log On' enter the 'User name', 'Password' and 'Domain' (if required), check 'Save password' and tap 'OK'.
- If the WIFI connection fails to connect or remains saying 'Connecting', tap 'Remove Settings' under the 'Menu' and repeat the steps above to reconfigure the WIFI connection.
