Title: Netgear MA701 CF Wireless - Getting to work in latest v3 u/g
Post by: Anonymous on December 07, 2003, 08:37:16 pm

I have a Netgear MA701 cf wireless card.  Since I flashed the latest v3 upgrade ROM it is not deteceted.  Does anyone know where to grab the driver (please do not say netgears site as they do not support it) or a config change to make to get it detected, could you please let me know?

I also use a Netgear MA 701 and have not had any trouble with it using Sharp ROMs 3.1 and 3.13.  There is no driver you need to load.  Which Zaurus are you using?  What ROM did it work with before you flashed?  If you still have problems with it, you may just have a bad card.  There were a batch of them that were bad, one of which I had.  Since then I was able to get a replacement.  Try it in another device or try flashing back to an older version.

Card is fine.  Has worked in the 3.1 and works in OZ.  The latest 3.3.5?  It will not detect.  But I also noticed the hostap modules do not seem to be included in the rom.  odd

Something strange... Currently I\'m testing OZ 3.3.5 and the card is fine. However, wellenreiter doesn\'t work (haven\'t tried kismet yet).

I just flashed to OZ 3.3.5 and my Netgear card worked great for a day.  Today the card would not mount or be recognized, so I had to reboot with the card inserted to get OZ to recognize it.  So I guess it\'s not just you, Slinger.  Other than that, I\'m impressed with 3.3.5.
