I noticed that in October this question was asked but I don't really
understand how to implement the answer. I have been testing with the
emulator andd my little FTP app works fine. When I connect with the Palm
7 I get a similar error to what is describeed below. Below is the
Question and Answer from October that seem to fit my situation. Can
someone tell me what I need to do to this Palm 7 so that my FTP app is
portable to it?

FWIW, on the Palm VII wireless internet access is via the INet Library,
not
the conventional network library. The wireless service is a specialized
use
of a pager system, not a generic TCP/IP connection like the Omnisky.
When you use the network library, the Palm VII is trying to create some
type
of dial-up network connection using the serial port and a (presumably)
non-existent external modem.
Omnisky does ship with a version of the INet library, so if you can make
your application work using the specialized services it should be
portable
to Palm VII.
Good Luck,

Subject: Palm V vs Palm VII
I have an application which connects via Palm V (on an
Omni Sky modem)
over HTTP and talks to a server. It runs fine on Palm
V device and on
Palm V emulator.
When I am trying to run it on a Palm VII device it
tries to connect to
a number (which I assume is a telephone number) which
is causing a
problem - it keeps asking for a number to connect to.
It runs fine on Palm
VII emulator. Can anyone tell me why the network
libraries which work
fine via Omni Sky on Palm V are trying to connect to
the internet via a
number when I run the application on Palm VII device.
Shouldn't they
use the default connection for Palm VII? What can I do
to make sure
that they use the Palm VII internet connection?
