Does anyone have any programs (or a way to setup WM6) to do a sync when wireless is connected.

I am in an environment where i am connected via wireless for half my day.
I would like to be able to sync with my exchange server over wireless when it is connected and not sync when its not connected.

I am wanting it to sync automatically every time it connects (or every X minutes while it is connected) via WLAN

I am running a Dopod 838 pro with WM6pro and syncing with exchange 2003.

Any help appreciated.

This might not be the exact answer for you... But check rk-OSR(Check my signature) for the utility to check emails using wifi.

Wow, thats a great app...
I will be using this unless anyone come up with a better solution.

Thanks for the prog tytnguy.

One suggestion for future versions,
Add a sync every X mins/hours option.
Also is there any way of having it sync without showing the window (like sync in the background)? Not that it is a problem, just would be a little tidier.

Once again, great work and thanks.

You could also use a tool like emoze (www.emoze.com). I can use it to sync my mail, contacts, appointments, etc....

Thanks for the suggestion emay but I already have Exchange server 2003 running, so all my emails and contacts are syncing correctly.

Its just getting it to do it automaticly over WLAN while its connected to save me data charges.

You may need to check your root certificates on your device and check with your admin about who you get your certificates though for the exchange server. They will have one if they have the exchange web mail log in enabled.
If you can get the certificate file to your device (tip: if it's a .crt file rename it a .cer so WM6 will read it). Then you can run it right off your device's file manager and it should install.
After that just make sure you're telling your device to sync via wifi.
Oh, and you can also configure peak times, this might save battery so your phone isn't constantly checking home wifi to sync. Also configure what to sync though the settings in your active sync menu, you should also be able to tell it only to connect wirelessly via wifi and not though your data plan.

I hope this all helps.
