wireless >> Cant connect to VPN over GPRS

Hi!

Im trying to connect my QTEK 1010 with PocketPC 2002 to a PPTP VPN server
over a QPRS connection.
The GPRS connection works fine. Browsing the internet without any problem.

Then, when i trying to establish the VPN connection, the GPRS connection
disconnect after some seconds.
It seems that the GPRS connections is being interupted by the VPN
connection.

Thanks!

Verify your mobile operator supports VPN on the APN you're using. My
carrier (T-Mobile in the US) has different APN's - only one supports VPN
connections and you'll need to have your account config'd to use that APN by
your carrier.

As far as connection manager goes here's a high level description of how you
need to have it configured:

Internet Settings
Configure your GPRS connection under Internet Settings (sounds like you have
this or it wouldn't be able to browse)

Work Settings
Configure your VPN settings here. Don't create another GPRS connection
here!

I have my activesync set to connect via bluetooth.  I was wondering if its 
standard that the connection has to be started only from the device.  I try 
to connect via the desktop and AS never connects.  When I connect from the 
device it connects and starts to sync just fine.

Not a big deal but just wondering if this is by design or is something 
wrong.

Thanks in advance,
