Mobile Favorites 
If you are using Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or later on your computer, 
you can download mobile favorites to your device. Synchronizing mobile 
favorites downloads Web content to your device so that you can view 
pages while you are disconnected from your ISP and computer. 
Use the Internet Explorer plug-in installed with ActiveSync to create 
mobile favorites quickly. 
To create a mobile favorite: 
1 In Internet Explorer on your computer, click Tools and then Create 
Mobile Favorite. 
2 To change the link name, enter a new name in the Name box. 
3 In Update, select a desired update schedule. 
4 Click OK. Internet Explorer downloads the latest version of the page 
to your computer. 
5 If you want to download the pages that are linked to the mobile 
favorite you just created, in Internet Explorer on your PC, right-click 
the mobile favorite and then click Properties. In the Download tab, 
specify the number of links deep you want to download. To conserve 
device memory, go only one level deep. 
6 Synchronize your device and computer. Mobile favorites that are 
stored in the Mobile Favorites folder in Internet Explorer are 
downloaded to your device. 
If you did not specify an update schedule in step 3, you will need to manually download content to keep the information updated on your 
computer and device. Before synchronizing with your device, in Internet 
Explorer on your computer, click Tools and then Synchronize. You will see the last time content was downloaded to the computer, and you can 
manually download content if needed. 
You can add a button to the Internet Explorer toolbar for creating mobile favorites. In Internet Explorer on your computer, click View, Toolbars, and 
then Customize. 
To save device memory 
Mobile favorites take up storage memory on your device. To minimize the 
amount of memory used: 
■ In the settings for the Favorites information type in ActiveSync 
options, turn off pictures and sounds, or stop some mobile favorites 
from being downloaded to the device. For more information, see 
ActiveSync Help. 
■ Limit the number of downloaded linked pages. In Internet Explorer on 
the computer, right-click the mobile favorite you want to change and 
then Properties. In the Download tab, specify 0 or 1 for the number 
of linked pages you want to download.

Connect to the Internet 
You can connect to your ISP, and use the connection to send and receive 
e-mail messages and view Web or WAP pages. 
You can connect to work in one of two ways: 
■ Create a modem connection. If this is the method you want to use, 
see “To create a modem connection to an ISP.”

the method you want to use, see “To create an Ethernet connection to 
an ISP.” 
To create a modem connection to an ISP: 
1 Obtain the following information from your ISP: ISP dial-up access 
telephone number, user name, password, and TCP/IP settings. Some 
ISPs require information in front of the user name, such as 
MSN/username. 
2 If your device does not have a built-in modem, install a modem card, 
or use or use a NULL modem cable and appropriate adaptors to 
connect an external modem to your device through the serial port. 
3 Tap 
 and then Settings. In the Connections tab, tap Connections.

type does not appear, try reinserting the modem card. If you are using 
an external modem that is connected to your device with a cable, 
select Hayes Compatible on COM1.

now use a dynamically-assigned address. If the ISP you are 
connecting to does not use a dynamically-assigned address, tap 
Advanced and then the TCP/IP tab, and enter the address. When 
finished, tap OK and then Next. 
8 Enter the access phone number, and tap Next.

networks use DHCP, so you should not have to change these settings 
unless your network administrator instructs you to do so. Tap OK. (If it 
does not appear or to change settings later, tap 
 and then Settings. 
In the Connections tab, tap Network Adapters, tap the adaptor you

see “To create a modem connection to a network.” Your network 
administrator may also give you VPN settings. 
■ Use an Ethernet card and a net tap to connect to the network. If this is 
the method you want to use, see “To create an Ethernet connection to 
a network.” 
To create a modem connection to a network: 
1 Get the following information from your network administrator: dial-up 
access telephone number, user name, password, domain name, and 
TCP/IP settings.

servers now use a dynamically assigned address. If the server you are 
connecting to does not use a dynamically assigned address, tap 
Advanced and then the TCP/IP tab and enter the address. When 
finished, tap OK and then Next. 
8 Enter the access phone number, and tap Next.
