Software / Why Did I Buy This Thing? - Oh Yeah, I'm A Geek

Thanks Lardman...

Ok, I did that, and wonder of wonders, I could communicate with the Z.  However, I take it that this version of I'sync is not compatable with Outlook 2003 since it refuses to find my outlook data files....  Arrrghhh

BTW, Do we know why the old version works and the new doesn't?

Well newbie or not here I am.  I switched to OZ because a majority of what I read here said it would resolve my WiFi issues, which it did after some additional tweaking.  From there I moved on to surfing, and got that working as well, again, with help from this and other web sources.  

My hope is that someone has moved beyond this point in my journey and would have some input that applies to the stated issue, thus saving me (hopefully) a few hours of troubleshooting.  

In any event, since my (poor?) attempt at humor in the title of this post may have made the situation unclear, let me go into more detail...

I have sync'd this Z with the PC in question under the Sharp ROM with great success, however, since moving to the OZ 353 ROM, I have been unable to get the sync to work.  

I have removed the drivers and software, and reinstalled them according to procedure.  After the install/reboot, the PC recognizes the device as new hardware and installs the drivers; it also prompts for additional drivers as expected when I switch over to "advanced" usb connection in I'sync Manager.  I also tried changing the hostname from collie to zaurus on the Z to match the default I'sync settings.  I verified the IP settings on both systems, yet it simply will not connect via I'sync.  

I have tried the same procedure on another PC with the same results.  There is nothing in the logs on the PC or on the Z, so I am at a loss as to where to go from here.

Does anyone know of specific configuration differences between the Sharp ROM and the OZ 3.5.3 ROM that could be causing this issue?  Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.  What port(s) is it trying to communicate over?  Basically - WTF?

Ok, I upgraded to OZ 3.5.3 and through days of frustration and combing through the forums I have managed to get my wifi card working, opera working, and even the camera.  I have moved on to trying to sync, and I am getting nowhere.  

Here's the info:

sl-5500 - OZ 3.5.3

Windows XP Pro
trying to sync Outlook 2003 via Intellisync (from the updated Sharp Rom Package)

I have removed and reinstalled the software and drivers, verified the IP settings, but I still can't get the PC to talk to the 5500.  It just won't connect...

However, just to be clear, both the usbd and the wireless connections work fine, I can ping, ssh, surf, etc...

Help!!!

What do "iwconfig eth0" and "lsmod" say? I just went through the process of getting a different Wifi CF card running:

iwconfig eth0:

eth0      no wireless extensions.

---I assume this is a problem, but what do I do about it?  This is driving me nuts...

lsmod:

Stock Zaurus SL-5500 (latest Sharp ROM)
Linksys WCF12
Native Drivers
Wireless IP: 192.168.1.108
USB IP: 192.168.129.201
Gateway (for WiFi) set to ip of router (1.1)



Ok, here it is in a nutshell:

I plug in the card (comes up as eth0), connect to my wireless network (to all indications successfully), I can ping localhost, I can ping the ip (192.168.1.108) but I can't ping anything else on the network, not even the gateway...



Ifconfig:
