[timolthy_keithy]

Hi,

I have S710 - Hermes - DASH. Windows Mobile 6
I have setup the VPN profile with appropiate my personal vpn server ip at home and information in 'Settings' --> 'Connections' --> VPN --> New.

I connected to Wi-Fi or using Cellular data, I could browse the Internet but I could not find where I can launch, or execute this VPN profile.

Any Help please.

Thanks,

Hi timolthy,

in WM 2003 there was a link in the menu that opens when you click on the G or 3G icon in the taskbar. For some reason we less minded will never understand Microsoft decided that this practical feature was redundant.

They did the same with the WIFI button from WM5 to WM6.

So the only way I know to dial VPN connections is either to rely on that buggy automatism, that might dial it, when you access a certain IP range (you can specify that range in the vpn settings) or you can go to control panel, connections and edit that vpn connection. Right click on the connection, there's a item called "dial".

These are the only possibilities I know of :-(
