Hi Dean,
Well I did as you instructed and upon going in to the "Utilities" menu and
selecting "Miscellaneous Options Setup List", ActiveSync connection was
still set to serial port. I changed this to EtherNet and after returning to
the "Utilities" menu and pressing "C" I receive the message "No
partnerships: you must establish a partnership with a desktop computer prior
to running ActiveSync." I hit enter and am returned to the "Utilities" menu
and then roughly five to ten seconds later get a gong sound from the
BrailleNote.
I went onto the PC and deleted the partnership I had set up there previously
thinking that I needed to set up another brand new one and repeated the
steps above and still no change.
By the way my router is set up with DHCP enabled.

Hello Chuck,
Do you have DHCP enabled on the router? If so, remove the card. Perform
a 456/JKL reset, setting the time and date appropriately. Next, insert
the network card again and after a few seconds, you should be away
laughing. In this situation, BNIP config doesn't need to be, and
shouldn't be used in most instances.

Anyone else with any thoughts on this issue.

Chuck,
Have you established the partnership while connected via serial port and
then run the bnipconfig.exe program to program the bn with the correct
parameters
from your pc?
I am successfully using activesync connecting to the bn via the ethernet
card here.
Also, after you set the parameters for the bn be sure to disconnect
activesync and also look in connection settings within activesync to be
sure you have all
the boxes checked properly. I uncheck the box telling activesync to
look on serial port and check the one for activesync to use the network.
Finally, I've found it's a good idea to do a simple reset of the bn
after you program it with the parameters from bnipconfig.exe.
I hope this is enough info to help you out. If I can assist further,
don't hesitate to let me know.
Don

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. This list is
great!
I've already gotten some questions answered by just reading the posts.
