Hello,

I am using tcp to connect from a pocket pc device to a
socket on a server over a wireless lan. I then
beginreceive on the socket and wait for information to
appear on the socket. The information does get to the
pocket pc device but it takes much longer to get there than
it does over normal ethernet (about 6 secs more).

Has anyone else experienced something like this and do you
have any suggestions for improving the speed?

Thanks,

liam
 
Hi,

As Alex says... Or, download PocketHosts from
http://www.zimac.de/cestuff.htm and associate the IP address with the name.
