When you say "just wont work" Is there any error message?

What are you trying to accomplish, browse a website, or send/receive e-mail?

If you are trying to open a page on Pocket Internet Explorer and it comes
back with "Page can not be found", you can try two things:

First make sure there's no software firewall blocking ActiveSync on your
computer from accessing the Internet. Second, on your Pocket PC open File
Explorer, browse to \Windows and run welcome.exe from there. Soft reset the
Pocket PC and try again.

I recommend you download VxUtil Personal (free) and use it to check the
connection information, paying attention toDNS and Gateway IP addresses. Use
VxUtil to PING a known server by IP and name and see if it works.
