Internet connectivity in WM6 standard emulator

Method 1: Via NE2000 network card

Assuming you have the sdk installed and can get the phone emulator running:

1. Emulator menu: File - Configure - Network - Enable NE2000 and bind to Connected network card (or your device that is listed).

2. Phone menu: Start - Settings - Connections - Proxy - Add new proxy. Connects From WORK. Connects To Internet. Leave the rest BLANK!

3. Emulator menu: Reset — Soft. Emulator can now connect to the Internet

Method 2: via ActiveSync

1. In ActiveSync: Open File->Connection Settings, tick the checkbox "Allow connections to…" and select DMA

2. In Device Emulator Manager, right click the desired emulator and select Dradle. Provided that the compute running ActiveSync can connect to the Internet, the emulator will be able to.

Method 3: via an emulated GPRS connection (for both Smartphone and Pocket PC)

The Cellular Emulator will also provide GPRS connection simulation. Users can create simulated GPRS connections just like common ones. The access point name and user name/password are not checked and thus may be anything. Once the data connection is made, the emulator will just act as if it is connected to the network of the host machine. If some proxy settings are needed for the host machine to set up connections to remote machines, they are also needed on the emulator. Assume a network environment where HTTP proxy is needed to access external web sites. Setting samples on Windows Mobile 6 Standard and Professional are provided in the following sections.

Windows Mobile 6 Standard

1. Enter Start-Settings-Connections-GPRS-Menu-Add. Create a GPRS connection using the settings as follows.
• Name: PPP
• Connects to: WAP

2. (Optional) Enter Start-Settings-Connections-Proxy-Menu-Add. Create a proxy using the following settings.
• Description: Proxy
• Connects from: WAP Network
• Connects to: The Internet
• Address: The proxy in the specified user's network
3. Enter Start-Settings-Connections-Menu-Advanced.

Windows Mobile 6 Professional

1. If the user's computer uses a proxy to access the Internet, then the user needs to setup a Work Connection on the Pocket PC, otherwise the user can setup an Internet Connection.
2. Setup a GPRS connection. Access point and user name can be empty.
