Use Trinity as wireless

[Hansoliv]

Hi ppl! Don't know if this is the right place to post this but here it goes!

I've wandered if there is a way to use my sweet Trinity :) as an wireless receiver,like those external wireless usb pens, anyone has any idea if it is possible? I'de like to use my trinity to connect to a wireless LAN.

Hey it's funny because i was thinking at the same idea !
It should be very nice to be able to do so !
If someone has an idea for that ?
Thank's for the help

I don't know if I understand your question correctly. You want to hook up your say notebook to the Internet via Trinity's builtin wifi?

I think it's possible - but not through the Internet Sharing program - since it doesn't treat wireless lan as a modem.

Though I haven't actually tried, I believe you can use BT DUN of WM6 instead.

Have you tried this on WM6?

Any options on WM5?

I'm in the same situation, my desktop PC hasn't wifi and I want to use my trinity as a USB modem and connect to Internet through its wifi capabilities, but the Internet Sharing hasn't the wifi as an option.

Maybe there is such a program like a proxy to achieve this, but I'm not able to find it.

your desktop dont have wifi ?
but your internet router does?

personaly i never seen a pda work as router not sure if the work load is too big

Yes, my desktop computer doesn't have wifi but my Internet router does.

The idea is installing some kind of proxy on the Trinity to share its wifi connection.

It seems it isn't as easy as it would be. I've found this blog entry (http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=453&more=1) from Werner Ruotsalainen, but the JVM he recommends doesn't work for me. I'm going to try another JVM when I have some time.

mmh, just trying to do the same... I got it working with the PocketPCProxy from the blogpost. But its not very stable :-(
Any other proxyservers for WM avaliable??
