I recently got a new server to work from. I use to write VB.NET CF code on
my laptop and move it over to my ViewSonic - Pocket PC to test. All was
well with connecting to my web-service from the viewsonic, which was
connected via usb. Once I installed everything on my new server and tried
connecting the viewsonic via the usb, I can now hit the web from the
viewsonic, but I cannot hit anything on my network, including the web
service that I want to hit. The pop-up error received is...

"You cannot connect to a VPN or POP3 mail server while connected to your PC.
Disconnect and try again. To configure an Internet connection, tap
settings."

Now, I realize what this is saying...but I don't quite now where to kill the
VPN connection or what really is wrong...

Thanks for you help
 
In the ActiveSync Options/Rules/Passthrough make sure Connection is set to
Internet
 
Thank you...

After posting this, I kept messing with the pda and found that I had set up
in the advanced section of connections -> select networks...I had set up to
use VPN instead of My ISP...my mistake...

Thanks for you help though...
