Turn your PDA into a USB WLAN adapter

Situation: there is a wi-fi router, a laptop without a built-in wi-fi adapter and a PDA based on windows mobile. Question: can I use the pocket assistant as a wireless adapter for a laptop? Yes you can!

Step one. On the Wi-Fi router, set the TCP / IP parameters:
IP address: 192.168.0.1
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

Step two. On the PDA we set a static IP for the wireless adapter:
Start> Settings> Connections> Network Cards> Network Adapters> CF8381PN Wireless Card> Use specific IP address
IP address: 192.168.0.2
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.0.1

Step three. On the PDA, we activate the packet routing function:
Here we need some registry editor (for example, Resco File Explorer).
HKLM \ Comm \ Tcpip \ Parms \ IpEnableRouter = 1 We
reboot the device, turn on wi-fi.

Step Four On the laptop:
Cancel USB synchronization:
ActiveSync> File> Connection Settings ...> Allow USB connections
Connect the PDA to the laptop via USB.
Set the default route on the Remote-NDIS Host Network Adapter in the PDA:
route -p add 0.0.0.0 mask 0.0.0.0 169.254.2.1 metric 1
Set the addresses of the DNS servers:
Control Panel> Network Connections> USB Connection (Windows Mobile- based Device)> Properties> Internet Protocol (TCP / IP)> Properties> Use the following DNS server addresses: 192.168.0.1.

Step Five Have fun!
