Does anybody know of any software available that will let me use my M515 to get on the internet directly through my pc?

I don't have a modem for my palm and use a cradle to connect to my pc is there any way?

Thanx in advance

With Windows 2000 you can set up a connection. Here's how:

Thanks for the reply but I should have mentioned I'm running XP and it is a USB cradle! Any ideas?

Once again thanks

The setup for XP is similar to W2K, run the "Network connection Wizard" (Start-->Settings-->New Connections). Tick "Set up Advanced Connection" [NEXT] "Accept Incoming connections"[NEXT] "Direct cable (COM1)"[NEXT] "Allow VPN" [NEXT] Select a user account [NEXT] TCP/IP [NEXT] Finish.

The Palm cradle performs a RS232 to USB conversion so that won't work. You will have to buy a Palm to serial cable. Palm, PN: p10804u.

I hope that this helps.
