Title: Zaurus Internet access via WinXP, Opera fine but no Email
Post by: evowan on March 17, 2004, 12:03:50 pm

Hi,

Right, here is my setup -

PC1 - WinXP connects to internet via modem, has IP of 192.168.0.1 and has Internet Connection Sharing on.

PC2 - WinXP connects to internet via a hub connecting to PC1. This PC has an IP of 192.168.0.6.

C860 - Has an IP address 192.168.0.5 and connects to PC2 via USB.

Now after I bridged the ethernet LAN and Zaurus USB connections on PC2, I ran \"route add default gw 192.168.0.1\" to my Z. Now Opera works fine, I can surf anywhere, pinging somewhere like \"www.yahoo.com\" works fine, etc. However, the standard email app and NetFront both insist on creating a connection via bluetooth (since this is how I will normally connect my Z to the internet on other occations).

Does anyone know why this is and how to get the email app and NetFront to use my LAN connection?

Thanks
