Sharp ROMs / Wellenreiter Woes

« on: June 28, 2006, 02:57:13 am »

after my dismal lack of success with kismet i have tried wellenreiter-i have installed the following on my c1000-libopie2_1.8.2-20031220_arm.ipk, libcopie1_1.1.0-20031220_arm.ipk,libpcap0_0.7.2-20031220_arm.ipk,opie-wellenreiter_1.0.2.1-20031220_arm.ipk.Everything
looked fine- I held down my stylus on the wellenreiter icon and checked the box"start as root"-I confogured my planex card to the configuaration as suggested by Hd Luc on his excellent zaurus page. However when I come to run I keep getting the message "not installed as root". I can start a scan but no information appears! I got the files from Hd's archive but although he refers to the c3000
and to cacko , I am assuming that that should work on the c1000? but maybe not.....i would appreciate some help thanks michael miller

Sharp ROMs / Kismet On Cacko 1.23

« on: June 23, 2006, 02:18:24 pm »

I cant seem to get kismet to function on my c1000. Ive followed the instructions posted by cresho.  from a previous post (Kismet on sharp rom). I edited the kismet.conf file so that the source is a prism2 card ( I have the planex card which I think is prism3 but I dont know whether that has to be indicated in the conf file) and set up the netwrk configuration as instructed but I cant get past "unable to connect to server".  can anyone set me straight. many thanks michael miller

sorry Im being less than clear- is there a way of  writing in an instruction that resets the card without my having to do that manually each time I want to log on?

thanks -cardctl reset works- is there a way of placing that instruction so the machine just resets automatically-i think that I have seen something in various posts but I need the andypandy instructions so that I can follow how to do it!

newsflash i changed the wlan settings on the zaurus to "any" and lo and behold im connected. However when i check the belkin client liston the router  I am indeed on it and when I check the wireless lan status on the zaurus likewise but  showing a different mac address. Also when I log off I cant reconnect without removing the card and reinserting it. but  THANKS to EVERYONE  for all your help so far

progress of sorts: ive changed the setting on the belkin to allow 802.11b devices rather than the default which is mixed. with the planex card in the icon on the zaurus is blu and wireless lan status registers as functioning (mac address, signal noise quality) However I cant connect to the internet and the belkin router status dosn't show the zaurus on the client list as connected ---grrr!  running iwconfig now reports quality noise and signal  ok but rx still invalid etc.. although invalid misc now reports 54

my mistake! the missing manfid was there manfid: 0xd601, 0x0005

iwconfig produces  lo    no wireless extensions.  Warning: driver for device wifi0 recommend version 18 of wireless extension, but has been compilied with version 16, therefore some driver features may not be available...

wifi0  IEEE 802.11-D5 Mode: managed
encryption key:off
Link quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0
Rx invalid rwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retyries:0 Invalid misc:0  Missed Beacon :0

Wlan0  ( same data as above)

How would I fix my router ?its run through a windows xp machine.  

Both cards are recognised by the zaurus-I understood that cacko supports both cards and therefore assume that the drivers are loaded but hoiw can I check?

I am about to ditch my new zaurus c1000 and go back to Palm ..so one last go. I am a COMPLETE novice so be gentle.I would like to hang on to the zaurus because of the keyboard(reminds me of my old psions) but I cannot get it to connect to my home network. When I first got it I loaded up cacko 1.23 and tried running the planex gw cf11x . I fill in the info for my home network (never any problems with my ibook and four other computers-they all log on straight away)-the result is either network offline , or iniatalising just keeps on doing that. I then loaded the Rom from Figlabs  same result. I then went back to cacko with a dlink dcf-660w -same result. I have connected ok to a friends network with no problems. so it is clearly something to do with my wireless network ( Belkin 54g) but there is no security on it or anything that would obviously stop connecting. ( as Ive said all the other computers and visiting ones work fine immediately) Ive tried delving into the config file using vi ( following various threads) but Im a bit wary since i dont really know what im doing .. any help would br greatly appreciated,thanks
