I cannot establish a VPN connection (using WLAN). The Smartphone seems
to automatically establishing a GPRS connection as soon as I open the
Browser, on the other hand I cannot find most of the settings, which
are documented under "Create a VPN connection" in the Windows Mobile
help on http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/help/smartphone/connections.mspx.

My Windows Mobile is in German.

I should change connection setting in pocket Internet Explorer
(pIE->Menu->Tools->Option->Connection) t from 'GPRS' to 'Internet'.
So, make first turn on WLAN and then VPN connection.

I assume you are using the built-in PPTP/L2TP VPN client in WM5.

The internet connection used underneath the VPN connections is automatically
selected by connection manager based on several different connection
settings. If you want to use WLAN, then you need to set network cards to
connect to "internet". If your WLAN is connected to "work", the VPN will
try and connect the GPRS.

Thank you gentlemen. I'll check this and'll confirm if it solved the
problem.

Our customer was not able to establish a VPN connection despite your
help. But he refused to let us use his smartphone in order to find a
solution to this. So I don't know if this would have solved the
problem.

Richard
