It's a refurbished model running ROM Version 1.32. Most info I find online says that the WCF12 will be recognized out of the box, but no luck. I see the advice to upgrade the 5500 to ROM Version 3.10, but it doesn't look like there is a Version higher than 1.32 available for the 5600. At least I haven't found one yet. Can anyone help?  I have the same results. Just got a new WCF12 from amazon plugged into my SL-5600, configured everything and I cannot connect (to my DLink wireless router). Anbody have any tricks out there for this card on SL-5600? Perhaps they've changed the hardware in the card somehow? What command line commands should we run to help figure this out? Thanks and regards, -Phil p.s. I'm using Watapon 1.6.1 p.p.s This link implies that WCF12 now uses prism3 chipset. Can anyone confirm? http://hotspotter.scottcressman.com/cfcard.php More data. My new WCF12 came right up in OpenZaurus 3.5.3. It must require newer drivers. Have you tried kismet or wellenreiter with it? |

I've reflashed back to a sharp based ROM, because I couldn't get an IrDA keyboard to work with OZ. I did try Wellenreiter when had OZ, and had no luck with it. It would not even find the AP in my home. I was under the impression it would not work with Prism3 cards? |

I bought a Symbol Spectrum24 on E-Bay and it works real well on my 5500.

Also, I use a Ambicom that works great, bought it at amazon about 1.5 yrs ago.
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detai...e&s=pc&n=507846 It's selling for 50 to $60. Just wondering, is there a Wi Fi - G CF card in the market? |

As you can see in my signature, I use a D-Link Air card.
It worked no problem at all, without any configuring on my part.
