OK, I have every thing set up to have my T68m (upgraded to R2F004) sync with Outlook via BlueTooth (MSI).
Here is the problem though. The phone can connect either through Port1 (COM9) or Port2 (COM6) but XTNDconnect will only let my select between:
IRDA
COM1
COM2
COM3
COM4

So it will never find my phone!
Is there a way I can add more COM ports to select from in XTNDconnect?
Can I change the COM number of the ports some how?

Any help is greatly appriciated.

BTW. I know that the phone can connect via BlueTooth because I am able to sync using MSI's Mobilet Program (too bad that doesn't sync with OutLook

XTNDConnect PC only supports the first four COM ports, even though it will allow you to choose higher-numbered ports in the setup. I would consider this a bug. I verified it earlier and wrote about it in another post.
