If you have a Dell X5 - Don't buy this! |
I have a Dell X5. It does not recognize this device at all. After contacting Linksys product support and waiting days for a reply, they were not even remotely helpful. I carefully detailed all the steps taken to install the device and the problems reported by my X5. They apparently do not take the time to read details and told me to follow the instructions on the shipped documentation. In my message I asked them if I should buy the Socket Low Power device and they recommended I do that if I can't get their product to work. I did just that after returning the Linksys to Amazon. The Socket Wireless works great and installed very easy.
As an aside, Amazon cheerfully refunded my money for the Linksys device! 5 stars for Amazon!!!!!!! |

Getting WEP to work |
This is to share my experiences getting this card to work on iPAQ 2210 under Windows Mobile 2003 with 128bit WEB encryption.
As was mentioned a number of times the default drivers that come with the card do not work. Get the new ones from Linksys. All these new ones do is enable the default Windows driver.
Now comes the fun part. How do you get it to run 128 bit encryption. The configuration window looks like the Windows drivers were designed only for 64bit, this confused me for a while. Ignore the look though, just enter your 128bit key even though it looks like the "Network key" text box is too small to accept it and it should work. Seems obvious but took me a while to get to it. Linksys tech support did not know how to deal with this. |

Linkys WCF12 |
| This is the biggest POS i have EVER came into contact with. It doesnt' work with pocket PC 2003 period dot com. I have never had a problem with Linksys products up until now, i am very glad i haven't as their tech/customer service sucks complete A$$. I spent 15 hours on the phone with them (i would say over 12 hours on hold), more than 10 hours trying to get this thing to work right and still nothing. Add to that they want to try to charge me to |
