Please help cannot sync wireless

What am I doing wrong? I looked up past threads and follwed directions. I am using pocket hosts. I have act sync set to include pc when syncing remotely and connect to my e740 name. When I try to sync it just hangs up while connecting and eventually stops trying. I am using a speedstream wireless router. I can retreive email and surf the web with no problems. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks for looking.

Questions....

Do you use any firewall or internet security software?

Do you have password protection on either Outlook or the PPC that doesn't automatically enter when syncing?

Can you ping the PPC from the host and vice versa?

Otherwise, I cannot understand why you are having problems.

No Firewalls, no password protection. Sorry but I am a newbie. How do I ping my PPC from my PC? Many thanks for your reply.

Have you put the IP address of the PC as the WINS server in the PPC? Start/Settings/Connections/Network Adapters/WLAN/Properties/Name Servers

This made mine work
