Hello,

I could'nt find anything usind forum search regarding this topic, so I create a new one:

I am looking for a way to estalish an WLAN connection automaticly when a program wants to access the internet instead of establishing a modem/WAP/GPRS connection.

The idea: Some Programs like Satelite Update have an option "autoupdate every day at 4 am" or the option "check for new messages every hour" in Messaging.

If marked. those programs are trying to set up a modem connection configured in Settings/connections/Connections
Of course I disabled those (together with all autoconnect options inside those programs) so no program could dial out over an expensive Phone line, because I have everywhere free access to WLAN (at home, work,...).
But it would be nice to use those autoconnect features over WLAN, e.g. every morning before I wake up, the device downloads satelite update data and all email messages by enabling wlan on demand und disabling wlan after downloding everything.

Is there any way to configure a wm6 device to enable and use WLAN instead of a modem connection? Unter Connections -> New Connection there ist no WLAN available (of course there are just modem devices including bluetooth modem option).

Is there any 3rd party Software or trick? E.g. is there some kind of virtual modem that trigers WLAN instead of connecting oder GSM Module...?

best,
Sunny

strange.. the best forum for WindowsMobile Devices and noone knows a trick or software.

Well, seems it is really not possible... what a shame that MS didn't think at this possibility - especially in this modern age where WLAN ist nearly everywhere

best,
