Please log in for more thread options What I mean with my question is if it does sync to the *server* when in the
cradle?
If the PC used to sync is in the same network as the server, you will have
to add an entry on your HOSTS file on the PC so that your Pocket PC or
Smartphone can find the Server internally on the network.
Once you do this, are you able to sync to the server when in the cradle?
If yes, then something is wrong in the connection from the mobile network to
the server. Do you have port 443 open on your firewall? Does the APN in use
allow port 443? Are you sure you're not using a WAP APN instead of an
Internet APN?
If the device can not synchronise to the server even while inside the
network, is there a software firewall on this server, preventing port 443
access? Do you have the correct certificate on the mobile device?
