Managing a Network Connection
The File Explorer is also useful if your Aero 1500 is connected to a
network via your desktop computer. File Explorer allows you to browse
shared network resources and connect to those resources provided you
have the rights to do so.
You must have established a network connection by either dial-up or
LAN card. You must have pre-configured RAS on the desktop to
allow RAS clients to access the entire network. For more information
see "
Connecting to a Network
" in Chapter 15, and ActiveSync Help
on your desktop PC.
To browse the network, use Network Neighborhood in the top pane.
You can use the Tools menu to configure, map, or disconnect your
network connection, or to find an individual computer on the network.
To map a network connection, tap Tools
à
à
Map Network
Connection.
The mapped connections are visible under Remote Folders in the top
pane. Mapped network connections are restored the next time a new
network connection is made when File Explorer is running.
