It has been given compatibility because the GPRS works, that or there is a fix lost here on the forums somewhere.

Any Prism 2.5 chip should work just fine in WEP or Open mode.



Hi C:Amie, followed your advice. Found on eBay a linksys WCF 12, a brand new compact flash one for just 10€, delivery included. Following some tips found on the forum. I was able to install a generic prism driver. If i tried to install WCF 12 or WPC 11 ver 3 driver, as suggested in the forum, i got some errors and the card is not recognised by the Jornada.
It seems the card works since using “Mini Stumbler” i am able to see all the networks available in my flat (the same i can see from my iPhone or android phone). Unfortunately vxutil is expired and i cannot use it anymore.
On my android i created a password free network (mini stumbler see it). The question is: now, how can I connect wireless to this network? I mean what is the app to use / install to connect to an available network?
I am 2 weeks trying to find a solution on this topic
Many thanks
Alberto

The drier should have the connectivity app as part of it.

If you look at the notes in the HCL for the WCF12, it tells you what driver to use.

It also sounds like you're using vxUtil corporate rather than vxUtil Personal, which was free.

Installed. The card is inserted. if i use ministumbler i see all the available networks. But if i click on WPC-11 CONFIG UTILITY i got the following error: "unable to connect to the wireless network cf card. please insert it."
But the card is inside.

what else should i do?
many thanks

p.s. to make the card recognised i used the following guide:
https://www.hpcfactor.com/support/cesd/h/0028.asp

installing "1.07.24.1025 (Recommended)" for Windows CE 3.00 (HPC2000)
and it gives me the Intersil Prism 2.5 Reference Driver

ehehe

i edited the message saying i was following that guide

it was the only way to get the card recognised. it installed me the Intersil Prism 2.5 Reference Driver not the 3.0. in this way i was able to see networks on ministumbler.

I am able to install the WPC11 driver and config utility but it says it doesn't recognize the card

But the Jornada recongize the card because:
- if i open the general "wireless config utility" in the link tab the state says associated. it says the link quality and the signal strenght are good
- the green led on the linskys WCF12 card is always green

It's possible you've got yourself into a stuck driver situation. Is it a bother to hard reset, try the WPC11 driver again with driver name WCF11NDS.DLL

Unreliably: ensure that the other drivers are not on the system.
Reliably: with a registry editor and some sleuthing
