How to bridge from a HTC device to a lan and the Internet etc. ? Tony 06-18-2007

Hi,
I want to connect and establish a network bridge from a HTC 710s or HTC
Touch with Windows Mobile 6.0 over WiFi or Bluetooth to a LAN and connect
with the internet Live messenger over the LAN instead over the expensive
GPRS connection.
a. Is there a standard way to bridghe over Bluetooth and WiFi Windows Mobile
6.0?
b. Is there a way to let this happen automatically? When I'm home and / or
in reach of a WiFi b/g or paired Bluetooth 2.0 connection I do not want the
HTC's to connect to GPRS but to the LAN instead.
c. Is there a Skype compatible client that I can use when on WiFi or
Bluetooth 2.0
d. How do I test this bridging with the Microsoft Mobile 6.0 emulators?
Kind regards,
Tony Thijs
Oriolus

1, you can. If BT speed /range is OK, then, even over automated ActiveSync
connections, which means no need to set up Internet sharing. Otherwise,
using Wi-Fi p2p connections, which require a one-time ICS setup.

Using the latter, you can leave your desktop PC's WI-Fi always on and let
your PDA automatically connect to it.

I also recommend my networking-related articles; I've written quite a few
articles on BT, Wi-Fi p2p etc.

2. Skype works OK over BT connections.
