Internet over serial?


Internet over serial?

Postby Gautam » Jul 14, 2002 @ 5:00am

This is a stupid question, really, but just as a novelty, does any know of a way for a Pocket PC to use a desktop computer's internet connection?
Basically, can it use a desktop's modem as its own, or use proxy over a serial/usb cable? Thanks to all.

PPC2K2 has it built in, enable pass through from the AS options, and screw with your internet settings until someone happens.
