Is there a way to make an old D-Link AirPlus DWL-120+ Wireless USB Adapter work with old NetStumbler v0.4.0 in an updated Windows 2000 SP4 machine? DLINK Airplus says it works fine, but that was in XP Pro. SP1.
I am trying to figure out why my client's PC wireless is having many disconnections and reconnections. NetStumbler says this device is unsupported as shown in a screen capture: http://img178.imageshack.us/img178/1...stumbler2k.gif ... I tried inSSIDer, but it doesn't work with Windows 2000 SP4 (requires XP or higher). ![]() Thank you in advance. ![]() Last edited by antdude : 05-03-2009 at 06:01 PM. |

How about you upgrade to a newer OS if you're gonna do this kind of work.

Streaker is right. If your doing this kind of work for pay,your not giving the clients very good service.

I had one of the local school teachers over a few weeks ago. He sat down at the wife's computer and without a thought started going where he needed to go. I asked him how he liked Ubuntu Linux and he was taken aback. He said it never dawned on him that it was not a windows machine.

Linux has extensive Palm support and he might like the idea of saving some cash by switching OS's. Unless he is using software that keeps him locked into MS Windows OS? Linux definitely has the language support that is requested. Plus more and more wireless adapters are being supported.

It seems like this used Hawking Technology's Hi-Gain USB Wireless-G Adapter (Model: HWU54D; original version) works better than that D-Link one (older) so far. "Asian dates that's using their palm?" -- Are you referring to palm readers? I don't think asians do those as a stereotype? Last edited by antdude : 05-05-2009 at 03:34 PM. |

Maybe I missed it, but you never said that other wifi adapters are not failing the connection to the AP. I would like to go out on a limb and say that if another wifi adapter stays connected then the wifi adapter is going out. I had a similar problem with my mini-pci adapter in my old laptop and had one laying around for parts. Easy replacement. I take it that since the machine is running win2k sp4 then the hardware has to be old as well. I didn't understand how NS could have helped you trouble shoot a wifi adapter that is obviously failing and needs to be replaced. Especially when the wifi adapter is not even a supported adapter in NS.
