Connect to Windows CE 6.0 with Windows Mobile over Ethernet

I been search the web without any answer. I'm looking to connect to our device with Windows Mobile, using a computer with Windows7 to our device running Windows CE6.0. It works if i connect with USB, however in the future our new PC card won't have any USB Client port on the device which makes this impossible.

Is there some way to do the same thing over Ethernet? Greetings

It seems that what you're asking is how to debug your application over Ethernet (correct me if I'm wrong). If that's what you're after then yes, you can do it using CoreCon manually. The steps are outlined here.

The process requires running ConManClient2.exe and CMAccept.exe on the device. How that's done is up to you, and there's no "one way" to do it. Yu might run it from a shell app like Explorer. Maybe from a command-line console. You could set them to run by putting them in the Startup folder, or adjusting the HKLM\Init registry entries to auto-run them at startup.

In any case, it's likely you'll only need this during development, so an easy way is to use something like an Explorer shell. Boot the device, explore and run the apps, then do your debugging. When you go to ship the app, disable, remove or replace the shell app and you're done.
