WiFi ActiveSync With Windows Mobile 2003?
Posted by Janak Parekh in "SOFTWARE" @ 12:00 PM
I'm hearing quite a few disturbing reports about WiFi ActiveSync not working with WM2003. The most common symptom I'm hearing is that the connection is made, but ActiveSync just goes into "Guest" and sits there, even if a partnership was established and ActiveSync was upgraded to 3.7.1.
This all came to a head yesterday when one of my officemates upgraded his 3970 from PPC2002 (where he used ActiveSync over WiFi frequently) to WM2003. Immediately after doing so, he installed the WiFi drivers and tried to establish the connection. It found the desktop, but he got the dreaded "Guest" connection. Hours on the phone with HP didn't help either.
What's your experience?
