acessing GPRS direct from C#

[cle]

Hi all,
I'm developing an PPC application which needs to get some
files via ftp from a server.
When I start the connection manually before I start my
application it works fine.
How can I start the GPRS connection within the
CompactFramework code written in C# ?

You will have to P/Invoke API's related to RAS or
ConnectionManager... Or you can use a 'ready' to use
solution:

You will need to P/Invoke to the Connection Manger APIs. Check the Pocket PC
SDK for more information.

I have a simpler solution. I just test to see if I can reach a web address -
doesn't matter what it is (www.msdn.com) - this gives a success/failure
flag...but it also makes the GPRS connection invoke automatically.
