Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805 User's Guide (5) Reset your Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805 to make the TCP/IP settings take effect and execute the ActiveSync function in the Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805 to enjoy the high speed ActiveSync Wirelessly. 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 Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805, simply click Start, Setting, Connection, Network Adapters, IEEE802.11b WLAN Adapter, then 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 adapter Active sync purpose. To set IP address, Subnet mask and Gateway, click Start, Settings, Connections, Network Adapters, IEEE802.11b WLAN Adapter, Properties, IP Address. To set DNS or WINS (Windows Internet Naming Service), click Start, Settings, Connections, Network Adapters, IEEE802.11b WLAN Adapter, Properties, Name Servers. (3) To ping your Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805 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.
