I received my Sandisk SD/IO WiFi Card yesterday. I ordered an 802.11b card for my Compaq iPaq 1945 Pocket PC. My goal is to be able to sync wirelessly my iPaq with Avantgo when my laptop is not at home. Also to be able to browse the web via wireless on the iPaq.
The setup was almost painless. The drivers installed fine. Getting the Wifi key to work was another story. Who knew that even if you don’t use a HEX code for your wifi the windows pocket pc needs you to convert it to HEX. once that was done and a reset later I got an IP address. things looked good from there. My problem is when I sync or use IE with the network card, my Pocket PC slows to a crawl. A soft reset fix’s things but then the card doesn’t find the network. I was too busy yesterday to troubleshoot the problem further, but it was frustrating.
I hope to look at the problem more today if I don’t go home and go right to sleep.
