Cards that reportedly WORK w/MiniStumbler 0.4 - Page 3

NetGuy.ca · 05-09-2004

Works pretty well with my Toshiba e740 (integrated 802.11b).

A couple of quirks I noticed (which may not be specific to the e740)... even with the autoconfigure button selected, I still had to manually change my wireless SSID to "ANY" in order to pick up AP's other than my own.

Also, manually setting the scan speed above the midpoint causes some erratic detections when you set the scripting to "No Scripting". At the fastest scan speed with "No Scripting", AP's appear and disappear on every scan.

You don't say...now there's a freakin' revelation.

I have a HP 2215 and a Dell TrueMobile 1180 card. I am using MiniStumbler 4.0 and I am using the Orinoco Drivers. It took me awhile to find these drivers but you can get them here. http://www.noodles4all.com/WiFi/WLCE3074.zip
If you get that card do NOT install the drivers that come with it. You will have to hard boot your PDA to get them off. And they suck anyway. Use the Orinoco drivers they are MUCH better in every way.
Here are some instructions on how to do it

1. Remove Dell TrueMobile CF card from your PPC
2. Uninstall the Dell TrueMobile driver (good luck you may have to hard boot so back up first!)
3. Install orinoco driver onto your PocketPC
4. Insert the CF card into your PPC
5. When prompted with Unrecognized Card, enter WLLUC46.DLL

It works great. I hope this helps others get started easier.

did you get your card to work right after installing the updated drivers?

Ministumbler is working great on my IPaq 3650 (CE 3.0/PPC 2000/PPC2002). I'm using the PC Card expansion pack with build in battery and the Alvarion BreezeNet PC-DS.11b card. The driver i'm using is the original Alvarion CE 3.0 driver which is available on Alvarions website. I installed the driver, poped in the card and it worked right away. Battery life is about 24 hours if careful with backlight usage.
I know that the original Orinoco driver also should work with some changes but i didn't fool with it. Alvarions original driver works fine for me.

yeah i just updated my rom and did the reinstall again and it works perfect

I have had no luck with Ministumbler 0.4 using the below config. but it works fine with a netgear MA701 card

Hardware Revision : 6.3
Firmware version: 0.100.5.39
Driver Version: 3.2.4.130
Module Release Date: 02.09.05

Has anyone got any ideas as it has been posted that it works with an earlier driver version.

My 2215 works with the Ambicom WL-1100C-CF card with the Intersil Prism driver set, couldn't get it to work with the Ambisom driver.

Greets to all

Confirming that my IPAQ 5455 running Pocket PC 2002 version 1.11.XX (06 Jun 03) D/L'd from the HP site does work. No updates were applied in the form of firmware or drivers for the wlan. Asset Viewer information is as follows:

Hardware Revision : 6.3
Firmware Version : 0.100.5.39
Driver Version : 3.2.2.84
Software Version : 4.0.1.36
Module Release Date : 02.09.05

Came across a post on the Aximsite that says the Dell Axim X30 with the integrated wireless works - I'm not certain if this is different hardware or different drivers - the X30 does ship with WM2003SE.

Apparently the X30 uses the Dell TM1210 so I guess the different hardware is why it works.

Ministumbler is OK on my old Cassiopeia E115 (CE 3.0) & Linksys WCF12

phantagom · 06-10-2004

I have a IPAQ 5450 and ministumbler works (sort of)

OS: WM2003

My Asset Viewer for WLAN says:
Hardware Version: 6.3
Firmware Version: 0.100.5.39
Driver Version: 3.2.2.96
Module release date: 02.09.05

But ministumbler doesn't detect as many AP's then wififofum. Wififofum detects up to 3 times more AP's then Ministumbler.

This is not a competition, either it works or not...just like the title of the thread states. If you're unhappy with the program, delete and move on.
