Hi, Charles & Lewis!

If anyone would know, it would be Jens. I haven't a
clue as to the answer to either of your questions, Charles. :-( Frankly, I hate it when manufacturers have websites which seem to
ignore complete product lines. Makes you feel like you've got an orphaned
unit, even when it's brand new.

Lewis, Being that I find myself being anal retentive
     

again, I am chasing down the    

latest firmware and driver for my ActionTec
     

Intersil PRISM 2.5 chipset mPCI
   

transceiver. I've been looking at the Intersil
     

website (ActionTec doesn't
   

even  have anything listed but PCI, PCMCIA, etc.,
     

no mPCI) and I was hoping
   

someone  might point me in the right direction.
     

Maybe Jens G. knows.
   

I hope you are asking this for OS/2, since I already
got a lot of questions this week about wireless and
OS/2.  I don't know why all this come this week,
neither can't I imagine some good reason to use that
inferior OS.
However, for OS/2, I'll give it a try:
Have you got the "Generic PRISM" driver?  Why don't
you just try it out?   Just find the IDs and try...  I
believe Jens once tested another embedded system with
the driver and I apparently worked (don't know which
though).
If the windows drivers of that product (w9x) have
*.inf files, mail them to me, and I'll have a look at
them; I've learned that these files are a great
start-point for technical details :d  The only thing
which I like about win, are these files ;)

 

Also, within the settings of the present driver
     

there are many
   

configuration  items and selections for those
     

items. Would anyone have the
   

faintest idea  about where to find any
     

documentation on these?
   

You mean those in the Edit dialog box of MPTS?  The
option of the .NIF file?  In that case, keep an eye on
www.os2warp.be/wifi, since I'm working on a PDF to
replace IBMs readmes and to have extended readmes for
all other drivers (of which I know and have).  

Thanks!      

Only hope this could have helped you; I guess Jens
will indeed be able to give you a more precise aswer
to these questions.


Cherio, or whatever it may be written,
JonOS/2
