    Tested in my A1200. Works perfectly, connects to my home wifi network using the prism2.device driver.

    I'm not declaring interest just yet, but have a few questions:

    Does it support WPA2 or only WPA?

    Price with shipping cost to Denmark?

    I've only tried using WEP.

    Postage to Denmark would be an extra £5.

    yes but isn`t there an update to let it do wpa ?? know i want to try it on one of my netgear cards which this is sposed to be a rebranded one, cant find a link of hand only ones for win ce which is how I came to find that there is an update humm now think linksys/netgear might do the update as well

    google is a wondeful thing
    http://www.markwilson.co.uk/blog/200...ss-network.htm
    I read in Kathryn Tewson and Steve Riley’s security watch: a guide to wireless security article that WPA is “both more secure and easier to configure than WEP, but most network cards made before mid-2003 won’t support it unless the manufacturer has produced a firmware update”. The problem machine was using a Compaq WL110 Wireless PC Card, which I was given around 2002/3 (when we first put in the 802.11b network) so it sounded plausible that I might need a firmware update. A little more googling turned up the does/can the WL110 support WPA? thread on the HP IT Resource Center which gave me the answer. No, there is no firmware upgrade (card support was dropped before the WPA specification was finalised), but if you download the Agere version of the drivers, and tell Windows XP that the WL110 is a 2Wire Wireless PC Card, WPA is available and it works (even inside the WL210 PCI adapter)!
    so there is an update out there

    maybe one of these
