help me, i don't find Wifi application on my UX

[itallmylove]

I have bought the UX50 for 1 Week, it had already Bluetooth-function but i can't find any application or whatever about Wifi on my UX50. I'm sure that it's a UX50, not UX40. Help me :confused:

[RichieRichDolla]

yuo sure its not a ux40 instead of a ux50. Is it dark grey or light grey

[mutantblack]

if it is ux50, it should be under Preferences>>Network. In there u can modify the setting to work with ur wireless router.

could read that book about the Spanish guy that came with the Clie - Manual!

Seriously, there are some known issues where the UX50 'forgets' it has wiFi and must be sent out for repair.

Just go to Netfront and click connect and it will automatically turn on wifi and scan for a network. very easy. Dan

Wi-Fi Hotsync Without A Router/Access Point
You can perform a Hotsync between your Palm and your PC without using a Wi-Fi Router/Access Point by establishing what is called an "ad-hoc" Wi-Fi network. This method connects the two devices directly together. It requires that you hard-code your IP addresses, though, and you'll have to make some other settings on your PC and your Palm which we'll cover here.
Preliminary Steps Before You Get Started
Make sure that you can successfully perform a Hotsync using your cradle/cable.
Before attempting a Wi-Fi Hotsync, be sure to download any software patches or updates from your hardware manufacturer.
Be sure to disable any firewall software present on your computer (this could be standard Microsoft Windows or a third-party product).
Configure the PC
On the computer, in the taskbar, right-click the HotSync Manager icon.
On the HotSync Manager menu, ensure Network is selected.
Click Setup. In the Setup window, click the Network tab.
On the Network tab, in the Checked users make this their Primary PC for performing a Network HotSync operation box, click to select the appropriate user.
Click the TCP/IP Settings button. In the TCP/IP Settings window, next to Primary PC Name, note the computer name. Next to Primary PC Address, note the computer address. Next to Subnet Mask (Optional), note the subnet mask. Click the OK button.
In the Setup window, click the OK button.

Under ConnectMode, tap the Adhoc button.
Under the Adhoc button, next to ch:, tap the down arrow, and then tap to select the appropriate channel.
Tap the Advanced Setup button. Next to IP Address:, tap to clear the Auto box. In the IP Address area, enter an available IP address in the same IP range as the computer. NOTES: If the IP address of the computer is 192.168.0.50, an IP address in the same range would be 192.168.0.51.
In the SubnetMask area, enter the same subnet mask as the computer.
In the Gateway Address area, enter the same gateway address as the computer.
Next to PowerSaveMode, tap to clear the Enable box. Tap the OK button.

Hey itallmylove, thx for that info. I tried it out & followed all of the steps, but when I perform a hotsync my pc indicates that there is a wireless connection with excellent strength & that it is sending packets (not receiving) but it never syncs. It timesout after a min or so and gives me a check setup & try again. I've been attempting to troubleshoot with different Adhoc channels as well as trying DHCP but it doesnt help.
