Hi,
I have the Hermes. All my networking works just fine when roaming. When I plug the hermes into the PC via USB it connects to ActiveSync but cannot sync with my exchange server (mail2web). I get a pop-up error on the PDA to do with "server assigned IP". I stopped this by going into Network Connections on the PDA and setting "Remote-NDIS Host" to use specific IP instead of automatic (IP: 169.254.2.1, subnet: 255.255.0.0, gateway blank) as advised on some other forums.

But I also still get the message below when trying to use the internet on the PDA when synced:
"The current connection cannot be used for your request..."

Basically, I don't have internet access while synced. This is annoying as I'm trying to write a TV guide app in C# which pulls xml from bleb and debug on the Hermes. But can't do this while I can't get internet.

Anyone know how to fix this?

btw - I am using ActiveSync 4.5 beta

Ok, so looks like it's a bug with Activesync 4.5 beta. I've downgraded back to v4.2 and all is fine again.
