>Dear Group,

at home I connect via DSL within a WLAN Network to AOL and the
internet. Now I want to use my PPC in the same environment and
installed AOL 2.0.55 for PPC´s. The WLAN worked properly with my PPC
but AOL cannot find the DSL Router behind my WLAN.

How can I configure the PPC to connect via WLAN and DSL to AOL?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Ray

>>Answer:

First, get rid of AOL. Then, report back to the group.

Seriously though, why would you need to install AOL on your Pocket PC?
Are
you a glutton for punishment? Just connect directly to the WLAN.

>>New Question:

Ok, I ordered now a call by call DSL number to connect directly to DSL
but how can I connect the DSL line to my WLAN?
I created a new network "ISP Tiscali". Then I create a connection "DSL
Home". Now comes my problem: If I want to select a modem I have only
the possibility to connect "Bluetooth", "Bluetooth Dial Up", "Generic
IrDA", "Hayes compatible COM1" or "Native IR". All selections are
doesen´t work. What I´am doing wrong?

You need a router to connect to the DSL line. A Linksys 802.11g router
will do nicely. Then you connect your machines to the router either
via CAT5 cable if they are close or 802.11b/g cards.
