4.3 WLAN Setup using connection manager in PPC 2003
The connections manager (WZC) in Windows CE 4.20 or PPC2003 plays a generic role for managing
various network connections.
4.3.1 Automatic network detection
The PPC 2003 connection manager scans for wireless networks periodically. If it detects any
network and has not connected to any network yet, it will first try to connect to one of the
preferred networks. If such a network is not available or the connection manager cannot connect to
any preferred network due to invalid WEP key, it will popup a window and shows a list of
networks for you to choose. See Figure 3. If you don’t see the network of your choice, click on
Settings to get to the detailed configuration window (Figure 6).
Note: If the connection manager is able to connect to a network automatically, the Network
Detection Window (Figure 3) will not appear, and you can follow the steps described in Section
4.3.2 to access the connection manager.
Figure 3 Network Detection
Select your network and what the network will connect to. In most cases, you should select The
Internet. If you are connecting to work network, select Work.
Now click on Connect. If WEP is disabled, then the connection should be established, otherwise, a
window will popup for you to enter the WEP key. Enter the WEP key then click on Connect. See
Figure 4. The connection should be established.
