6610 doesn't communicate with PC Suite; infrared problem

Hi.

I have a Nokia 6610 and a laptop with Windows XP with an infrared port.
The IR port does see the 6610. The pc suite software can identify it as a
6610.
But when I want to select my 6610 it doesn't work.
It is looking and looking, but nothing happens.
It worked once when I had Windows 98.
I had the same problem with Windows 2000.

Greetings,
Patrick Kik, The Netherlands.

Check what speed is set for it in the infrared driver options. Try it on 115200 bps.

It's me again,

I've upgraded from PC Suite 5.1 to 6.2.
It should work, ... but it doesn't.
It says that the software doesn't support the 6610.

Anybody an idea?

We can suggest to have a look at Oxygen Phone Manager II (
http://www.opm-2.com/ ). Can you manage the phone with trial version
of Oxygen Phone Manager II ( http://www.opm-2.com/download/opm2.zip )?

Also, please, check the following settings for IR connection:

1) You should turn IR connection off in Nokia Connection Manager right
before running Oxygen Phone Manager II. In some cases, one may need to
uninstall Nokia PC Suite completely as it may occupy infrared
connection even in inactive mode.

2) Open 'My computer' -> 'Control panel' -> 'Wireless link' ->
'Hardware' -> 'Properties' -> 'Advanced' (or 'General', depends on
driver version). Here you should set 'Speed enable' parameter
('Maximum connect rate' in some driver versions) at 115200 ( 115
kbit/s) value and 'Infrared transceiver type' parameter (if available)
at 'Sigmatel 4000' or 'Sigmatel 4012' parameter (if not available,
just leave default setting). Some Sigmatel IR transceivers may
function only on 57600 bit/s (57.6 kbit/s) speed value and some Vishay
infrared transceivers may function only on 9600 bit/s speed value.

If you will have any questions and/or suggestions, concerning our
program, feel free to post them on our official forum
