Title: Advices For Wifi Cf C1000
Post by: gettons1980 on August 18, 2006, 02:19:02 pm

Hello to everybody, I'm going to buy a cf wireless adaptor for my new pretty sl-c1000.
For now I've installed the sharp original rom, but I wish to install others roms in future...
I wish to know some models that users can reccomend to me ..
I need a cf wireless adaptor that run without problems onto my sharp original rom and also if possible on the most part of the other roms...( Cacko , pdaxrom and openzaurus...)
Is there a cf wireless that runs on all the roms for the c1000?
Or, there is one that runs on many roms if nor in all roms?

Thanks a lot.


Tommy

I recommend a Symbol Spectrum24 Wireless Networker.  It has worked fine for me with SharpROM, Cacko and OZ(hentges).  It is also supported in PdaXRom but, I haven't test it yet.  It is also sold as the Socket Low Power WLAN Rev. A card.

thanks, i've noticed that in the compaitibility list all che cf are old cards.

It's not easy to find now these models, and are all b mode and not wireless ...

Is there any newer model easy to find out?

THANKS

there is a compatability guide at oesf.org, just hunt around the wiki

basically if its 802.11B it will most likly work, avoid the netgear stuff as  i have blown up 2 cards

and last but not least if it works with sharp rom then it is likly that it works better in the other distros

i would give you the link to the wifi campatability page however i managed to stuff up my mouse support when i upgaded  my PC and things such as copy and paste are difficult with elinks without a mouse however look in the general hardware section as there was a post the other day about it where i posted the correct links

Oh thanks, I've just read that compatibility list, and now I'm bidding an auction on ebay to feed a LINKSYS WCF12
But as I wrote above they are all old typo of CF, very difficult to find...

I've read several reports on this forum of the Dlink's dying.  Also, the Dlink is massive in size.  I would choose the Linksys if I were you.

I have been using an AmbiCom (WL1100C-CF) for more than a year which I picked up very inexpensively at Circuit City. It's been working without any issues on the original Sharp ROM.
