Cards that reportedly WORK w/MiniStumbler 0.4 - Page 5

Nerdtalker · 11-07-2004

Dell Axim X30:

Wireless card: Integrated Dell Truemobile 1210 WLAN module 802.11b
ROM: A05

Works like a charm with Odyssey client running in the background and power managment turned off. Works with bluetooth GPSs as well.

works fine with sandisk sdio with 256 mb card on my mio 168 (apart from gps that is)

DaveFromThePeg · 11-23-2004

The link to the Senao website only offers a "404 error".

iPaq 3850 with Pocket PC 2003 (or WINCE 4.0).

Would anyone know of a wireless card that works with this setup. Also, would I be correct in assuming that some wlan cards will work with ministumbler 0.4.0 even though the manufacturer doesn't supply Win CE drivers??

Thanks for you help

Linksys does not make WM2003 Drivers as of yet. The Senao drivers work fine. The only problem I have right now is the configuration tool that comes with the drivers will not run. But it's not that big of a deal for me since WM2003 will now recognize the card, allow's me to connect to wifi networks and Pocket warriror works with it.

Once at the senao website download the WLan_ForWinCE400 driver. Run the installer and then do a soft reset. Then power back up and insert
your Linksys card. The OS should give you and "Unrecognized card" pop-up.
Enter 'wlannds.dll' (without quotes) into the input box and click 'Ok'.
Your link light should now be flashing green and you will be notified of the
existing 802.11b networks within range (if any).

Going to 'Start->Settings->Connections->Connections' will also let you see
networks w/in range.

Or at least that invalid link...

May I also suggest you get familiar with this site so you can post in the proper forum. And while you are at it give the search feature a try.

Since i am using PPC 2002 do i have to configure in order to access the network or can i just click somthing and be connected???

Thanks

I have also a Dell X5 but with PPC 2003 as OS and it works very fine MiniStumbler.
I use the Dell TrueMobile 1180 CompactFlash card. Also a very good one and supported by every wifi-tool a came across so far.

The Dell wireless utility that comes together with the card has the feature to connect to every available network.

So you just have to walk around an when a network is detected it asks for connection.

In the same utility there's a menu item called 'Site Monitor...' which does the same as MiniStumbler.

Of course MiniStumbler rocks...

...(GPS, more detail, more extensive,....)

So how's it working out? Are you able to connect and surf?

Hi everybody,

I've seen a lot of people on this site with the same problem I had... MiniStumbler doesnt work "well" with the sandisk 256MB SDIO+Wifi card.

I had the same symptoms like, only finding the first AP and then not finding any more... Also had it that it only saw AP's I was assosiated with and whatever else..

allthough I saw the sandisk wasnt officialy supported, I'm a stubborn and wanted to see WHY it didnt work.. I thought here should be a way since it DOES recognize the first AP or AP's i'm assosiated with...

I found a tool on wififofum.org that disables the WZC .. Guess what, the moment you disable WZC, the sandisk works PERFECTLY!

So now when I want to connect to a AP I just enable the WZC and soft-reboot... then when I'm in the car and wanna drive around, i disable the WZC, poke the PPC in the bum, and off I go... Haven't had a single moment since, that it didn't work.

Just thought I mention this, cause there are more people like me that only HAVE the option of the Sandisk (since in The Netherlands thats the only SDIO that's being sold, and I HATE creditcards)

Greets and have wun wardriving

PS. My pocketpc is a MIO 168 Digiwalker thingie, (integrated GPS)

Working fine on a Dell Axim X5 with a Hawking Technology 11M CF card on this version of ministumbler. It did not work on earlier versions.

Which sleeve do you have? PCMCIA or CF? Or are you asking so you know which one to buy?

I have the 3835, which is the same model, just from the "Compaq web store". I have the dual PCMCIA sleeve, with an Orinoco Gold card. I had to go this route because I use an external antenna, and none of the CF cards have the connector for it. I really wish they had a sleeve with a PCMCIA and a CF slot, because it would probably be a lot thinner than the dual PCMCIA...

So if you want to use an external antenna, you have to use PCMCIA, and Orinoco is pretty much the way to go.. If you can live without it, you can get the much slimmer dual CF sleeve, and a CF WiFi card. So far theres a Netgear and a D-link that are reported to work. Linksys and Symbol also have CF cards out there.. Unfortunately the SD slot in our iPaqs only work with memory cards.. They don't support SDIO for the SD WiFi cards.
