When the Pocket PC is idle (not in use) without A/C power being present, it is highly
advised to remove the 11Mbps Wireless LAN CF Card in order to prevent from
complete battery drain.
n
Due to WinCE's nature of the first application at power-on resuming to that at power-off,
if you are stuck at the utility program, you may use the PDA's (only for hand-held) reset
bottom to terminate it. And activate it again when needed.

reset and force a connection request by going to utility program, then select

If your device roams to a new AP which is in a different subnet, you may need the

or (2) Hard reset your device to force an execution of "release and renew" of an
re-assignment of IP address in a DHCP Access Point environment.
