[MLB-WIRELESS] Hardware compatibility

[David]

Hi Jeff,
        I have some info at work on the Proxim card (I have 2 of then my self) This card is an Openair card not 802.11b it will work with Proxim AP models ? and Intermec AP models 0110, 0111, 2100 and Norand AP 6710.
The 2100 and 6710 need to have the right radio card installed.
The 2100 can run 900MHz or Openair or 802.11b at 2.4GHz
The 6710 can run 900MHz or Openair only at 2.4GHz

Do you know what country (US or AUS channel set)?

If this is one of the 802.11b ones Entrasys Cabletron PCMCIA WiFi card (from the Bulk order of cards just gone) it will not work with the Proxim cards.

As for the Symbol Spectrum 24 2mbps AP. model AP-3021  this AP is NOT Openair or 802.11B it will not talk to the PCMCIA cards.

I should have more info at work if you need  it as I work with Symbol, Intermec, Telxon/Aironet and Proxim wireless lan gear you can e-mail me direct.


          Thank you
          David

  Hi all, 

  I have the following wireless toys in my possesion and i am having fun tring to get them to work nicely together,

  Symbol Spectrum 24 2mbps AP. model AP-3021
  Entrasys Cabletron PCMCIA WiFi card (from the Bulk order of cards just gone)
  and a 
  Proxim Rangelan 2,  2mbps. model pc card 7400

  now the proxim dosent work under XP and i havent really tweakes the linux drivers much, 
  the proxim has a handy Snoop tool which shows me theres signals but i cant get anything

  none of them talk or do anything that i want, 
  I have set channels and BSS and ESS over and over,.

  Is there any goos docs on how to get these thing all going together?

  anybody got any ideas what to try /  where to start.

  Cheers

  Jeff
