Re: [Netstumbler] netstumbler not working with latest (Feb 2003) Orinoco drivers

[Bill Thomassen <wlt@xxxxxxxxx>]

I had the same problem when I moved my Orinoco Gold Card to my new Dell Laptop, on which I installed Windows 2000, and did the Service Packs up to #3.

There's a known problem with SP3, which affects the use of PC Cards, and the fix is easy, it's just a Registry tweak.

These drivers don't seem to be released yet on the Orinoco website,
but they came on the CD that was in the WCN / Netstumbler.com mobile
kit with 5dBi antenna. The CD has "Feb 2003" stamped on it.

The Orinoco Wireless Client manager reports this:
Date: 2003/06/19 15:08:10

OS: WIN2000 Version 5.00 Service Pack 3 Build 2195

Variant 1, Version 3.04 of Client Manager
Variant 4, Version 7.82 of NDIS 5 Miniport driver
Variant 13, Version 1.00 of Wireless PC Card Model 0111
Agere Systems Standard (White) Card
Encryption capabilities: WEP + 128RC4
Max. data rate: 11 Mbit/s
03UT18332908
Variant 2, Version 1.10 of Primary Functions firmware
Variant 3, Version 1.24 of Station Functions firmware

Right clicking on the card in the Driver manager shows:
Driver Provider: Agere Systems
Driver Date: 2003-02-27
Driver Version: 7.82.0.354

Netstumbler is: Network Stumbler Version 0.3.30

When run, the status at the bottom is "No wireless card found".
Clicking on Device shows me a greyed-out Wireless PC Card Model 0111.

I have searched the archives at Netstumbler.com and michiganwireless.
Don't see anything applicable there.

Thanks.
