Wireless problems

[Guest LSmith4285]

At work we are mainly a Novell setup so we have a Juniper box which we use for different authentication methods such as SSL VPN's. We are now using it for our wireless network authentication and due to our setup we use Odyssey Access Client on laptops and PDAs to control the wireless. We have managed to install Odyssey and get it working on a pair of Kaiser's we have on loan from Vodafone but we are trying to set it up on Symbol MC70's. The one thing we are missing on these devices is Comm Manager, on the Kaisers we went in and turned wireless on but Comm Manager does exist on the Symbol devices or I can't find it.

Basically Odyssey connects to the network and we can ping the devices but whenever we try to browse through PIE it says that the it cannot connect through the current connection settings. Does anyone know where I could basically tell WM to use the wireless?

Hi LSmith,

You shouldn't need Comm Manager. Go to Start / Settings / Connections tab / Advanced / Select Networks. Try setting both to My Work Network. Also, under Connections, select Wireless LAN, select the Configure Wireless Network icon on the very bottom-left and (assuming you have already created it) select your wireless network connection from the list. Check that the settings here are correct. For instance, you could check that 'Connects to:' is set to The Internet.

Hope these ideas help. Good luck.
