Could this be the infamous Wireless Zero Configuration problem?

 

Not sure.  It isn't the problem I thought it was originally.  It is something with my ap/router setup.  I found that someone else around here has setup wireless and I connected to their setup without issue and it shows weaker than mine did and I am now right next to my ap and it still isn't working quite right.  Initially I couldn't get an address through dhcp so I set a static one and that was working.  Then it quit letting me send and now it isn't working at all.  I upgraded the firmware to the latest 350 but didn't help it any.  I haven't used the xp partition in quite some time and it was working fine then so I am not sure what changed.  Wouldn't be an issue but I am waiting to get my jrescuer registration to see if I can undelete some files I mistakenly deleted and don't want to work with the eCS partition until I have a chance to see if I can restore those files.

Hi,

the only connection problem I experienced with my Artem Card connectiong to a NetGear MR314 was that I had to set
RTS Threshold to 2347 and Fragment Threshold to 2346, as these were the max values  once provided with the Artem driver. Until then I never changed these values.

Before I did that, I had quite some problems with the connection, first working, them dropping. At that time I did not test/use DHCP, so I cannot say anythign about the error being possible related to that as well.

_If_ that is your problem as well, it may well be that the windows driver by default uses different values for the card as the OS/2 driver does. If then the windows values do not match well your access point, you have a significantly worse connection under win compared to OS/2 or eCS.

bye, Christian
