OK - first off, I am a Linux newbee, so please go easy!

I am autoconnecting to a RDP session on my N800. To do this, I use a script that autoconnects to my wireless network during the boot process. This way, I am sure the connection is made when the script runs to start RDesktop automatically.

All this works great. The problem is that I want to create a dummy network to trick the Nokia into thinking it IS connected incase I need to use the Nokia browser etc. I've read that DummyIAP only works with the N770 and not the N800.

I cannot find an easy set of instructions on how to make this happen. I've found some instructions on how to create an "dummy" ad-hoc connection, but I need to keep my original wireless connection alive. It seems that creating a ad-hoc connection, whether real or not, causes the Nokia to drop my connection when it trys to connect to the fake ad-hoc connection.

Any suggestions on how to create a dummy connection that won't break my autoconnected one?

Thanks
