Nokia 6820 - Problems with IR

Hi,
Did you have to do anything to get IR to work? I have an AT&T 6820
and am running WinXP SP1.

Nokia recognized the phone after I installed PC Suite 5.65, and the
Connection Manager "sees" my 6820, but I can't 'connect' to it.

ie-I can use Nokia Phone Browser to explore the phone, but I can't use
PC Sync or Settings Manager, etc as they all report as being
disconnected.

Windows XP 'Wireless Link' reports an active connection. Any tips on
what I might be missing?

Thanks!

Fortunately, this is a pretty easy fix. I had the same problem.

When I called nokia, they said to update the PC Suite from the
website. I looked at the version numbers and they looked identical,
but they said to update it anyway.

I did and haven't had any problems.
