Caveat

n When the Pocket PC is idle (not in use) without A/C power being present, it is highly

advised to remove the 11Mbps Wireless LAN CF Card in order to prevent from
complete battery drain.

n Due to WinCE's nature of the first application at power-on resuming to that at power-off,

if you are stuck at the utility program, you may use the PDA's (only for hand-held) reset
bottom to terminate it. And activate it again when needed.

n Sometimes, your wireless connection to AP may disconnect for any reason. You can

reset and force a connection request by going to utility program, then select
"

", check parameters, then select "

" to force a re-scan.

Apply

n If your device roams to a new AP which is in a different subnet, you may need the

following two actions: (1) Unplug and re-insert the Wireless LAN Compact Flash Card,
or (2) Hard reset your device to force an execution of "release and renew" of an
re-assignment of IP address in a DHCP Access Point environment.
