Open GPRS Connection

[barry.burke]

Hey Guys,

i have an application that performs an FTP over a GPRS connection. The
problem is i need to be able to activate the GPRS connection through my
application.

How is it possible through code to initialise the GPRS connection.

Instead of the user having to do: Start -> Settings -> Network
Connections -> GPRS -> Connect

If your platform is Windows Mobile you can use Connection Manager APIs -
managed wrapper in OpenNETCF.Net - www.opennetcf.org/sdf/
You can also use RAS to establish a connection - a managed control around
RAS is available here - http://www.intelliprog.com/netcf/ras.html

Hi!

If you have Windows Mobile try that
-----------------
Try
Dim oWebRequest As System.net.WebRequest =
System.Net.WebRequest.Create("http://www.sysdat.at/short.htm")
Dim oResponse As System.Net.WebResponse = oWebRequest.GetResponse()
oResponse.Close()
Catch e As Exception
AppShared.LogEvent("SendMailSimple: Fehler http://www.sysdat.at/short.htm" &
e.ToString, OpenNETCF.Diagnostics.EventLogEntryType.Error)
Return False
End Try
