PCMCIA WiFi Problem
« on: February 09, 2007, 10:08:47 AM »
I'm having problems getting my Wavelan "Bronze" wireless card to work in the 1200.

Symptoms are....
Hitting the "Online" button in the MiamiDx Interfaces screen gives me a "Finding IP Addresses" progress box ticking over for a few seconds and then goes away. I'm assuming it's connected but nothing seems to work and the lights on the card are off.
If I then hit "Offline" and then try "Online" again, the light on the card comes on, a message box which didn't come up before pops up saying "Initializing Protocol" and the machine locks up needing a reboot..... bloody frustrating!

I have both CardReset & CardPatch in my Startup and SetPrism2defaults as well.

Anyone have any suggestions?

At this point I am stumped...

TIA,
Rythmtech.

Thanks Guys,
But I've just figured out that my card is incompatible with my  wireless router. I borrowed a Windows laptop which picked up the card OK but couldn't connect. Some more Google searching has me thinking that it's only a 802.11 not 802.11b card which is what my router supports.... Oh well back to eBay...

Thanks for trying guys.
