CK60 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User's Manual
When a TCP/IP client cannot find a DHCP server, it generates an AutoIP
address from the 169.254.xxx.xxx block. The client then tries to check for a
DHCP server every 15 seconds and if a DHCP server is found, the client
drops the AutoIP address and uses the address from the DHCP server.
To disable AutoIP, set the AutoCfg registry entry to "0." If a DHCP server
cannot be found, instead of using AutoIP, the system will display the
"Unable to obtain a server assigned IP address" message.
Note: If you try to disable AutoIP using a CAB file to set the registry value
for AutoIP, set the EnableDHCP value to "1" to keep DHCP enabled.
Note: Use DhcpRetryDialogue and DhcpMaxRetry registry settings to
extend the number of attempts a DHCP client makes to get a DHCP
address.
Note: Change the AutoInterval registry key value to make the client retry
more often to obtain a DHCP address.
The CK60 does not support wide area networks.
You can set up connections to the Internet and corporate network at work
to browse the Internet or intranet, send and receive e-mail, and synchronize
information using ActiveSync. Connections are made via wireless networks.
Your CK60 has two groups of connection settings: My ISP and My Work
Network. Use My ISP settings to connect to the Internet. Use My Work
Network settings to connect to any private network.
• My ISP: Once connected, you can send and receive e-mail messages by
using Messaging and view Web or WAP pages by using Internet
Explorer Mobile. The communication software for creating an ISP
connection is already installed on your CK60. Your service provider
provides the software needed to install other services, such as paging and
fax services. If this is the method you want to use, see
Internet Service Provider" on page
• My Work Network: Connect to the network at your company or
organization where you work. Once connected, you can send and receive
e-mail messages by using Messaging, view Web or WAP pages by using
Internet Explorer Mobile, and synchronize with your desktop. If this is
the method you want to use, see
