Guest itaca Posted November 25, 2004 Report Share Posted November 25, 2004 I am trying to configure the following PCMCIA Card: 3Com 3RWE737A Airconnect wireless Lan PC card with a Dell CPx laptop under Mandrake 10.1 In KDE, when I go to the configuration menu and try to set up a "wireless" connection type I then see a list of devices but there is not the card I mention above. Is there any way of getting the wireless card autodetected or else where can I find the driver and load it? How can I know if it is up and running? Thank you very much Ignacio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamw Posted November 28, 2004 Report Share Posted November 28, 2004 With the card inserted could you run these two commands: cardctl info cardctl status both as root, and paste the info? thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest itaca Posted November 29, 2004 Report Share Posted November 29, 2004 Having tried both commands, the response is the same for both: open_sock(): No such device Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest linux_or_bust Posted November 29, 2004 Report Share Posted November 29, 2004 I had the same problem w/my Linksys WPC11 Ver. 4 card. When I would do cardctl, it would show no product info in both sockets. However, in Harddrake, the card would show up. I used ndsiwrapper & the Win XP driver to get the card working, below is the link. It may help... wireless w/ndiswrapper also if you decide to use ndiswrapper, this link is helpful ndiswrapper instructions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
