Hello,

can anyone explain me the logic of the option "My network card connects
to:".

I have a MDA II (Ver. 1.60) with Windows Mobile 2003. I changed the option
"My network card connects to:" from "Work" to "The Internet" and closed the
Window. When I reopen the networkcard-window to verify the option I'm very
surprised because the option is set to "Work".
I tried it again, but I wasn't able to change the option to "The Internet".

Is this a bug or a feature ?


Thanks for help
Michael

Look at this page for an explanation of the "Work" and "Internet" settings in the Connection
Manager...

Generally setting up your PPC for all "Work" works well...:-)

I've seen reports of this before, the general rule of thumb is to click ok
until you're back at the today screen. Sometimes this is caused by third
party apps that allow you to close programs by tapping "X"
