Establishing a Connection between PDA and Processing Unit

To establish a connection between PDA and processing unit, follow the steps
outlined below:
1. Install and configure your WLAN router.
You require an Ethernet connection between your PC and the router (for example,
Siemens Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable). Configure the router as DHCP server and, if
necessary, change its IP address. To set the configuration, you work in the user
interface of the router over a JAVA-compliant browser by entering the preset IP
address.
2. Configure the processing unit as a DHCP client.
You do this in the Connect> Ports> Ethernet> IP Mode menu by setting "DHCP".
3. Connect the WLAN router to the processing unit over an Ethernet cable and turn
the processing unit on. Then check the IP address assigned to the processing unit
by the router in the Connect> Ports> Ethernet> IP Address menu.
4. Enable Wireless LAN on your PDA.
Depending on the PDA, you will either have to install a wireless network adapter
or simply enable the Wireless LAN integrated on the PDA.
