Planex Gw-cf11x, Rc10.4...help!
« on: August 22, 2005, 10:39:20 pm »
Alright, so just got my new SL-C1000 from Conic's, i converted the Rom over to PDAxRom to check it out, one problem, the Planex GW-Cf11X Wifi card i got doesn't work.  And i can't really figure out the package manager either, i'm kind of a newbie to this so please be gentle...

I get nothing and it says "Anonymous Memory" when i plug it in, i tried the command in the termal and it doesn't find anything in either socket, so please help me out,

or, anyone know of any straight out of the box cards that will work in PDAxRom, i could never get my last card to work on my SL-5500, a problem that has urked me to this day.

Thanx

I'm glad to see someone has it.  I know that sharp released a new drive for it on their rom, but i never used the Sharp rom, and it's impossible to find an image to flash back to the origional rom, anyone out there got a link?

I have gotten farther with this card, but still no luck.  I have installed the wlan-ng package from pdaxrom, the prism3 package from sharp and done a whole bunch of fiddling with sharp's shell scripts.  I have reached the point where I need to do a RAM update to the CF card via prism2dl.  However, no matter what I do, when I run 'prism2dl wlan0 -s' (which should show the CIS and PDA info from the card), I always get a 'load_cardpda failed' message.  I have verified that the prism2_cs module is loaded and that the card is present.   cardctl show the right info.  /proc/net/p80211/nsd show the right info.  but prism2dl can't communicate with the card.

If anyone wants to help troubleshoot, I will gladly send you logs, scripts, etc.

Cheers.

I have this card it it works wonderfully with openzaurus, sharp rom, and Cacko on my C3000.  OZ detects the card as a Sandisk Connect Plus, but it works fine all the same.  Sharp Rom and Cacko with stock kernel required the ipk from this link [a href=\"http://support.ezaurus.com/sl-c3000/update/wlan_cf11x_b11/]http://support.ezaurus.com/sl-c3000/update/wlan_cf11x_b11/[/url] .  Cacko and Sharp Rom with Tetsu's special kernel required an update linux-wlan-ng package found at this link http://digit.que.ne.jp/visit/index.cgi?Lin...%E9%A5%A4%A5%D0 .  There is no pdaX for the c3000 (yet. I hope my donation helped).  But it would seem that it should work as long as pdaX supports prism3 chipset devices such as the gw-cf11x.

Waiting for next Z.  Will still hang out here to offer help when I can.

I'm using this card with SL-C750. I've tried with the hostap driver of PdaXrom, but it didn't work.
I've installed Cacko Rom 1.23, which has a proper driver for this card.
I've saved the following files:

Code: [Select]
/lib/modules/2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-embedix/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/hostap.o
/lib/modules/2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-embedix/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/hostap_crypt_
ccmp.o
/lib/modules/2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-embedix/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/hostap_crypt_
tkip.o
/lib/modules/2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-embedix/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/hostap_crypt_
wep.o
/lib/modules/2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-embedix/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/hostap_cs.o  
/etc/hotplug/firmware/orinoco_ezusb_fw
/etc/hotplug/firmware/orinoco_usb_fw.bin
/etc/hotplug/firmware/pm010102.hex
/etc/hotplug/firmware/rf010804.hex
/etc/hotplug/firmware/symbol_sp24t_prim_fw
/etc/hotplug/firmware/symbol_sp24t_sec_fw
/etc/pcmcia/hostap_fw      
/etc/pcmcia/hostap_fw.conf
After reinstalling PdaXrom (1.1Beta) and coping back the saved files above it works.
I can use WEP,  too.

Best wishes,

Tamás

Hi,
I am using this card on a C3100, it is very sensitive and the range is impressive but I have to run a script everytime i want to use it and am very interested in your post. I am wondering if it would work on a C3100 running 1.1.0Beta1 but am unsure as to exactly how and where to place the code. I have found the files mentioned but am wondering if  when I open the /lib/modules and then the 2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-embedix the later is empty, I need to ask a silly question, where do I put the rest of the first line for instance. Thanks, I am rather new at this but learning fast.

Using beta2, download http://www.red-bean.com/~proski/firmware/1.8.4.tar.bz2 and http://www.red-bean.com/~proski/firmware/primary.tar.bz2 then all you have to do is extract the two archives into /etc/pcmci/firmware and you should
be good to go!

Thanks I am going to try that. I've been holding off trying Beta2 because I just got Beta1 exactly how i like it. Thanks again.

From the beta2 Changelog:
Quote
hostap-drivers - LinkSys WCF12 moved to firmware config
If I am thinking correctly, that effects the planex card also. Not sure if it will work as easy in beta1. Let us know how it goes.

I'll try beta2 as beta1 doesnt seem to have /etc/pcmcia/firmware
