Title: 5600 with Zynergy ROM, Wellenreiter questions
Post by: wavz on April 07, 2004, 12:46:53 pm

Hello All,

I have read a number of posts, probably too many and have become confused on whether I need to enable wireless extensions in order to get this to work or not.   What I have:

Zaurus 5600 1.32
Running Zynergy ROM
Wifi AMBicom WL1100C


I have kismet running fine but after successfully installing Wellenreiter II I have no choices in the Interface tab to select which interface to capture from.

After running iwconfig it shows the eth0 has no wireless extensions, is there a way to get Wellenreiter to run without enabling wireless extensions and if not where can I retrieve the patch for the 5600?

Any information specific to the 5600 would be greatly appreciated..

Wellenreiter provides more information in the scans, namely addition machines that are contacting or connecting to the AP\'s identified.  I am trying to use the Zaurus as security product but have not had alot of luck with the newer ROM for the 5600.  I really like the Zynergy ROM but I am needing the wireless extentions enabled in order to use the tools being considered.  I suppose I can go back to the  Sharp ROM with wireless enabled, I just like the builtin apps on the Zynergy.

Unless someone has come up with a fix....?

Hello, Im a noob in all this linux stuff. but installing Wellereiter II has been bugging me for a couple of days now.  Maybe I justmissed reading it in the forums. Ive installed Wellenreiter II on my zaurus but it say the device is not properly configured. On the configuration setup (Interface tab), there is no name and the driver is wlan-ng(also the auto detect selection), but have also tried switching drivers around .  Have tried messing with the spectrum.conf in the /etc/pcmcia to have Ambicom card in there but bound to orinoco_cs. but still no luck.

I\'m also running the Zynergy ROM, but with the special kernel v1.3. Does this have the wireless extensions needed to run wellenreiter???
