hello, i have a tungsten t2, and i want to connect to the internet from it using Webpro. i thought i had all the settings correct, i had my ip address in, my dns address in. Then i go to sign on. it appears to be working, it says intalizing, signing on, then all of a suden it says error:timeout(0x1212) and if i cancel the sign on, a box comes up and says dns error. what is all this? how can i fix it? thanks

Welcome to Geekzone... There's not much we can help with, because of little information provided. You should tell us more about this.

For example how are you connecting? Via a cellular network, wi-fi, Bluetooth? If Bluetooth what kind of device is providing the network access?

And you are trying to access the Internet through a connection sharing on your iMac? If this is the case it won't work. The Mac OS X doesn't provide the support for the type of connection you need.

You basically have 3 options:

1. Get Bluetooth added to your PC - either via pci card, dongle or a BT Router.
2. You could purchase a Wifi SD Card for your Tungsten T2 (though I don't know if they still exist for such an old model)
3. Purchase a newer model that has Wifi built into it.
