My test results show the connection to the server over the internet to work
fine; however, there's significant latency when establishing the socket
connection with a local server:
mysocket = new Socket(address, portnum)); // delay occurs here
The problem seems to be related to reverse DNS lookup. But I'm not sure and
it does not occur with a desktop PC. Because we are somewhat able to
workaround the problem by assigning an IP address for the local server and
add its address mapping to our DNS server, which requires the wireless
access point (Linksys) to be connected to the internet. With this
configuration, the iPAQ can then access the local server without delay.
However, the solution we're targeting is the ability for the PocketPC java
applet to open a socket to a local server without connection to the
internet.
Would appreciate any hints or insights to this problem.
Thanks,

<P>Hi, everyone. </P>
<P>Wondering if anyone has any experience in working with opening sockets on a
PocketPC (iPAQ). </P>
<P>Here, I have an applet that I'd like to serve to a Pocket Internet Explorer
browser. This is possible with a plug-in called Jeode (fully compatible with
the PersonalJava specification), which enables the browser to run java applets
on a PocketPC.</P>
<P>From the applet, I'd like to either establish a socket connection with an
internet server or with a server on a local network using wireless
networking.</P>
<P>My test results show the connection to the server over the internet to work
fine; however, there's significant latency when establishing the socket
connection with a local server: </P>
<P>mysocket = new Socket(address, portnum)); // delay occurs here</P>
