Hi,
ActiveSync's USB connection is using 169.254.2.x to connect the PC to the
Windows Mobile device. There is no option to change the IP address. Also,
you would not want to use the 10.0.0.x addresses because it would cause a
conflict with your network.
Generally this is not dangerous because the 169.254.x.x subnets are used for
private addresses that cannot be routed over the internet.
