TrueMobile 1150 and XP Pro
I am having a strange problem. I just purchased a TrueMobile 1150 card and am trying to get it to work. I initially had Win2K loaded on my laptop. I installed the software provided by Dell on the CD I received and I then installed the card. Win2K picked it up correctly and I went into client manager to set the SSID to my wireless home network. I did that and client manager automatically connected but I had no IP address or anything. I couldn't connect to anything at all! I had IP set to Obtain automatically too.

I then tried Knoppix Linux and it recognized the card automatically and when I booted into it, I could connect and surf the net. I had an IP address and everything.

I then decided to try XP Pro so I installed that and it recognized the card during install but the same problem with Win2K is happening. It doesn't see my wireless network and I can't connect to anything.

I've searched this forum all over trying every different driver I could find with no luck. Anyone run into this problem? It has to be a driver issue as Knoppix used Orinoco drivers for the card. I tried them under XP Pro and nothing. Am I using the wrong driver?

I have a Linksys WRT54G at home with it set to B only.

Thanks for the help!

I'm guessing that you have connected to you home network with another device/card before and it works fine?

Yes. I was using a D-Link card before and it worked perfectly. The 1150 works great with my network too if I use Knoppix Linux. Something has to be screwy with the Windows driver for it.

Usually it's the reverse. Linux doesn't recognize it but Windows does.

Thanks.

Why don't you convert it to an orinoco gold and see if it works, and to do that just search, i guarantee results!

I should try rebooting next time. That did the trick.
