HP ipaq 214 and USB Mobile Broadband

#1 (**permalink**) 29-09-2008, 08:06 PM

Hi, I've recently bought a USB mobile broadband device for my laptop and this works great. I also own a HP ipaq 214 PDA and again the Wifi and Bluetooth are working well. The question is:
"Can I use a USB Mobile Broadband Dongle directly with my PDA".

I assume that if this was possible, I'd need both a USB adaptor to connect the dongle to the PDA and software to get it to work on the PDA.

Any help with this would be very much appreciated.

Thanks
Mike

No you cannot use USB devices with mobile devices such as PDA's or mobiles.

USB modems only work on Laptops and PCs.

Thought that that would be the case.

Thanks for the help anyway!!
