Anybody know? I have tried so many now and am fed up!
All work ok'ish but all have problems. Need it to do WPA.
The one I have been using is the Sandisk 256MB +WiFi driver as this is more updated (does WPA) than the Sandisk Wi-Fi only driver, however it causes problems with my SD Mem card due to the mem driver part of it.
PLEASE could you guys post your results so far.
Want to create a definitive guide!
The Socket Communications driver for SmartPhones seems to work the best.
You can download it from here: http://www.socketcom.com/support/redirect.asp?URL=ftp://ftp.socketcom.com/wlan/SDIO_WLAN_Sagem.exe
Works perfectly!!!! Whoohooooo
Thankyou. Finally can use my Wi-Fi card in WM2005

I've been reading a lot about the Sandisk wifi card being unreliable with the XDA II, and on my hunt for a wifi card i've come across this from
Ambicom:http://www.ambicom.com/products/wave2net/wl11-sd.html
Has anybody had any experiences with it, good or bad, as it seems like a reasonable card as it's priced at just over £40.#
Thanks
as described here many of the sdio wifi cards use the same hardware
and can use the same drivers and many people use the sandisk with the socket driver and have good results with it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=14929
it could be that the card you talk about is the same hardware
Has anyone tried this card with the socket drivers and does it use the same sys chipset?
i got a sandisk sdio wifi card two weeks ago, for my brand new tsm500 (same as xdaII) and at first was very disappointed as card was very slow. Supposing was due to some special configuration of my home wireless network, i tried all the tips i know about, with no results at all. Took a look on the net and found out that most of users of this card got the same problem. but found the solution, too, on a spanish forum: uninstall sandisk drivers and install the ones from www.socketcom.com, its sdio wifi card has the same chipset. new drivers makes card much faster, has got a more friendly desing and its configuration is very easy. just try it and post the results.

Sandisk 256MB + Wifi and MDA Compact
These drivers don't work with Sandisk 256MB + Wifi and MDA Compact. I don't know witch devices doesn't work but I think it's the Sandisk 256MB + Wifi.
Do the Sockets drivers work with the standard SD WI-FI (the one without the ram) and the MDA Compact IMATE Jam?
These drivers work fine for me, using a standard Sandisk Wifi card (without extra RAM) on a XDA2
Is that the low voltage sandisk card?

Yes, it will work. SanDisk only came out with 2 SDIO WiFi devices, the first one having no storage, and the second on with 256MB of storage. SO if your card is the one without storage, it will definitely work.
I purchase a new Sandisk sd WiFi card off e-bay, and it worked okay in my Compact the first time, the second time it failed (no lights).
After a lengthy support call to Sandisk in the US (via UK number), the diagnosis was that the card had died.
Fortunately Sandisk have a couple of UK companies that can handle warrantee claims and my card was dispatched in the post.
I have just had an e-mail from them saying that the card had indeed failed, and that they would be dispatching a new WiFi + 256Mb card instead of the WiFi only card because this card was now obsolete.
I quess i can live with that!!!
Thumbs up for Sandisk, i just hope that my Compact has not caused the failure of the card somehow with a faulty SDIO slot? Memory cards work fine so I hope that the card failure was a one off.

Hi,
Wait until you install the driver of Sandisk 256+wifi on compact.
The driver provided by Sandisk is not compatible with WM2003SE. It is only compatible with WM2003. There are a lot of complain say that this incompatible driver caused compact to work not as stable as before.
I contact Sandisk about this and they say that they never say their driver compatible with WM2003SE. Sad!!!
Best regards,
Arto.
Yes Sandisk did say to me that the driver is WM2003, not WM2003SE.
I guess i will have no option but to use the WM2003 driver, what other option is there?
Thanks,
Mike.

Okay, but you still need the Sandisk driver, and the Socket utility is a bonus add-on.
Looks a neat utility though Thanks.

I use a sandisk card, but use the socket driver. Works a treat. Couldn't get the sandisk driver to work!!
Is the socket driver working with combo memory and wifi?
If "yes", I will try socket driver. Headache with Sandisk driver
Thanks
Best regards,
Arto
Sorry this is only wifi not combo but I think the Socket drivers are better.
I did read that the combo may not work in certain devices not sure if this included the jam.
Regards
I have a Jam running ROM 1.06 WWE. My Sandisk 256 meg is working great with the LATEST dirvers from Sandisk.

It may not specify that it works with SE, but it works fine on my Jam. I have access to my home network and do file exchanges with no problem. The only problem I had was when I tried to connect to my network when my router SSID was turned off. So I turned it on and then set up my security settings on my Jam and then turned it off again and had no more problems.
I've been playing around with the Sandisk Wi-Fi only card on WM2005 and I find the Sandisk 256MB+WiFi drivers work better than the standard ones as these support WPA security. However I am suffering from weird storage card issues and slowdowns due to the extra bit of the driver that handles the 256MB part of the card, which as we all know doesn't actually work on an XDA II anyway.
Would it be possible for someone to extract JUST the WiFi component of these drivers and leave out the 256MB storage driver component?

Any ideas on how to do this? :roll:
no, but how about you change the exclamation point in your topic heading to a question mark?
Pedantic man, jesus. Get a life.
Will it support SDHC cards now?
no, sorry.
tried it already, it failed
BA hardware device isn't compatible with SDHC
do we know this for absolute fact? reason I ask is that the hermes didn't recognize hc cards until wm6 and its drivers supported them.. thought this wm6 might have brought along support for the BA as well
tried NOT WORKING

From what I understand from the Universal forum, the ability to use SDHC cards is software related, not hardware. Thats why in the latest version of WM6 for the Universal, there is full support for SDHC cards. Someone just has to modify the driver to support them.
SDHC
has anyone with a SDHC tried this driver:

.....just happen to come across it, so try at your own risk!

hey i had tried this driver and it removes the normal sd card driver so any who is going to try first take a backup. Im not sure about sdhc as i dont own it yet so plz someone having HDSC plz try this its from HTC.
that would be cool.. I will love to have a 50Euros 8Gb SDHC card in my BA

I installed this cab on on my 2nd BA (this is my test platform), and it doesn't seem to work. It replaces the SD card driver, so that it won't even recognize normal SD cards, or SDIO cards. I think that the SD hardware that this drivers was written for must be different. I'll keep playing with it, but I suspect that this is not the answer.

This driver is for Eten X500 it will not work on BA
So all along i thought it was a hardware problem, i should put a hold on buying one of those 4gb sd and wait for this.
I have a Topram 8GB SDHC, when ever you guys find a driver for the BA just let me know, i'll test it and report back here.
For SDHC to work on BA, the SDHC driver must be extracted from the same processor device. That is what I see on the ETEN SDHC driver that it was applied from another Samsung processor device.

Hardware-wise closest device should be Universal which does have working SDHC now. But if the PXA27x is too much different from BA's PXA263 then it will be impossible.
Does This Work With Ba?
I Found This Cab. Does It Work?
where did u find this?
did you find it with any relations to universal or htc devices?
tested it and it didn't work!
no its from asus pda
Do you think maybe Axim50v driver will work? or 'WM 6 Professional Images' from MS? (was just wondering...)
Something to keep in mind about the larger sized cards...
In my experience, the larger the card, the slower the access.
When the angel was designed, I really doubt that anyone knew that cards of the sizes available now would be available, not to mention that the SD driver in our phone is pretty old.
When I first got my 4 gig card, I noted that accessing data from the card was much slower than the system memory. That speed drop all but went away after I partitioned the card into two smaller 'cards'.
That being said, SDHC is the new standard, and having the ability to read and write to these cards, even if it's not any faster, would be a good thing.
Found this cab on Axim forum.

I can test it, i don't have a SDHC card.
