The easiest way, IMHO, is to use a wireless router. I can do that with my old
Axim PocketPC running WM2003SE. In my case I have to use WPA-PSK [TKIP] as
the encryption type. I have a ZyXEL NBG334W router.

Alternatively if the PC has a wireless card in it you could try an ad-hoc
connection between the PPC and the PC then use ICS on the PC so the PPC can
access the network and internet through the PC. Here is one page that may
help with that.

You might consider posting to the microsoft.public.pocketpc.wireless news
group for addtional help.

Good luck...

You could look at bridging the wired and wireless interfaces on the xp
desktop and establishing an adhoc wireless connection to it from the
pocket pc
