Looking for hardware (PCI Wireless LAN)

I'm looking for a PCI Wireless LAN card that will work well with Linux, does anyone know of any place that documents this sort of thing? (as in a list)

I think it's other option, singular - as in USB? I recently had to switch wifi to USB myself, when my laptop's card slots died. After a bit of research, I went for the prism2 chipset with the wlan-ng driver - specifically, the Netgear MA111. It's all working fine now, but in retrospect, I'd probably go for something that works better with wireless_tools.
AFAICS, there aren't any stable drivers for 802.11g over USB - madwifi may or may not do it, depending on Atheros, prism54 is trying, and they have pre-alpha stuff available for the brave/foolish, and there's also the zd1211 project on sourceforge.

P43 Neo - PCI wireless LAN performance problems

Hi,
i recently installed the Neo P43 Board. Everything runs fine so far, except PCI wireless LAN (maybe more, it's the only PCI card I use). I already updated the BIOS to 1.6 but it doesnt fix it.
I tried 2 different WLAN cards (1 Realtek and 1 Ralink). Both of them basicly work, but the transfer rates are painfully slow although the connection quality is reported as good enough.
Anyone else having issues?

How low are the transfer rates?
It varies a bit but most of the time very low (as low as 1kbps or sometimes not working at all)
What are you connected to (Router?, What kind of Router)?
Connected to a router. It's a "Speedport" router, I think they are manufactured by Siemens.
When you talk about the transfer rate, do you mean the transfer rate that you get when you try to copy files to another system in a Wireless network?
I mean downloading files from the Internet over the router, or generally the connection to the router (like status page).
The Ralink card used to work just fine in my older PC with an Athlon XP / Nforce Chipset (and several other PCs), but on the Neo P43 makes problems with both, the Ralink and the Realtek card.
I'm not absolutely sure it is the board that makes these problems, but I can't think of any other source for this problem anymore.

I'm looking for a PCI UMTS card for Portege M700

First of all Hi everybody, as above mentioned in the title is about the Portege M700, I'm looking for a PCI UMTS card for this model have here a 8775 Sierra lying around, but this is unfortunately not recognized in Win7, I can times someone may say what card for this laptop is, or even something where I could get so ...???
Thanks apologize in advance

Hi
You need a 3G broadband module?
As far as I know some of the M700 Portege series have been equipped with the 3G module I think its from Novatel but Im not quit sure
However, if you need an part for the Toshiba notebook which would be compatible for sure, then the best place for buying such part is your ASP.
The guys could check what parts are compatible and could order it from Toshiba if this would be really necessary

Cheaper solution for a 5508 wireless lan based

Hello, our wireless lan is based on a single 5508 (It's not HA). We would like to use a cheaper solution as a backup if this 5508 falls. Could 2504 works?
In short words, we have two RAP's that are connected in a hp switch and all ap's are connected to these rap's. Same for wlc, it's connected to switch

Have you checked Radio Shack? The staff are pretty knowledgeable about what you need to connect MBPs to TVs. Their cables are way less than $300.

[SOLVED] Driver for my USB Wireless LAN Adapter

I have a USB Wireless LAN Adapter for my desktop so I can share the network at home with others，but I found that I can only use my USB Wireless LAN Adapter in install environment. The driver for USB Wireless LAN Adapter just disappear after installation，the operating system could only identify the device but could not drive it.
Are there some packages not install for this problem or some configuration of the system is wrong?
thanks

have you searched the forums? There are a bunch of threads on the ath9k module not working correctly with the latest kernel.
That's why it works in the live cd environment but stops working once you update and login to your actual installation.

Software Version Upgrade for Cisco 4402 Wireless Lan Controller

Hi,
We have Cisco 4402 Wireless Lan Controller with Software Version 3.2.171.6 and we want to upgrade it to latest version.
So can anyone please let me know the latest version to upgrade the WLC?
Also since WLC is running on very lower version is it possible to upgrade to the latest version directly or we have to move it step by step to upgrade this to latest version?
Thanks

Take a look at the compatibility matrix below:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/controller/5500/tech_notes/Wireless_Software_Compatibility_Matrix.html
7.0.235 is the latest that you can go to:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/controller/release/notes/crn7_0_235_0.html
The release notes outline the upgrade process.
"Upgrade to 4.0.206.0 or later 4.0 release, then upgrade to 4.2.176.0, before upgrading to 7.0.235.0."

Passport in Parallels will not look for my functioning wireless printer.

I think Parallels has done something to the program so it will not even look for the printer. It is stuck on "Pictures." Is it a Nuance problem or Parallels?

Let's make sure it can connect first. Remove all security from the router so it has no password temporarily. Now try to connect with no password. If successful and verified, go back and add security on the router, WPA2-AES (Personal). Now connect again with the printer with the new security and new password.

Looking for a good wireless server..

I've tried Roadrunner's wireless service and it was horrible, does anybody know of any good wireless services?

I'd look into getting a Netgear DG834G instead. This is the best-selling wireless ADSL modem/router/switch for a reason.
For half the price of Airport Extreme you get pretty much the same set of features, plus 4 Ethernet ports instead of one.
Plus, there is also Internet content filtering, firewall with DoS protection and SPI, 50 user VPN pass-through and most importantly (for me that is), remote configuration from designated IP addresses only.
Or, if you are looking into a VoIP solution in the future, a WGR613V (http://www.netgear.com/Products/RoutersandGateways/GWirelessRouters/WGR613V.aspx) would be the sweet spot.

Looking for a compatible wireless router

I have a Macbook and id like to hook it up to a secure wireless router.
Anyone have any advise on what to get, anything but Linksys please.
I was looking at the Netgear Rangemax 240 11G 240mps 2.4ghz Router Wep/WPA2 4port 10/100 switch.
Seem like a decent wireless router for apple?
Thanks in Advance~

I have no idea how reliable this information is... (warning)
I was told that Linksys routers do not work reliably with the MacBook and MBPro. One Apple technician told me he was working on a way to get around the problem.
The reason I was asking about routers is because the Netgear router I currently use drops the signal now and again. Talk about frustrating! However, since I re-arranged the position of the router, cable modem and VOiP box, the drop outs have stopped.
By the way, the same people told me that D-Link routers work well with MacBooks.
To the previous poster on why NOT to consider Apple's Airport... How about the price tag? I would have one in a heartbeat if they were sold at a reasonable price. $200 compared with an average of $40 for any reliable router is enough to swing my pocketbook.

Looking for experience with Wireless Printserver

Hello all!
I would like to connect my HP PSC 2171 to my iMAC (10.4.7) and my 2 WinXP LapTops via a wireless printserver.
As I fear heavy problems and unreliable print service, I would like to ask the expierenced users for their opinion and recommendations.
Do have any tips on the hardware? Can I rely on the printservice just as the printer would be connected locally?
Thx for your info!
iMac g5 20 2GB Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Using a print server requires using the CUPS comm protocols included in OS X. This brings with it driver problems:
Network printing/Windows printing only works with a driver that was meant for network printing. To use the OS X built-in CUPS network choices, you need a CUPS driver. For postscript printers, it's not an issue, because postscript is the native output of OS X, and can easily be routed to the various choices in Printer Setup.
Non-postscript printers are Very Different. Except for Brother, no manufacturer has provided CUPS drivers. Instead, what you get is Carbonized, OS9 legacy drivers, that have the comm protocol written into the driver (mostly USB). They can only print via local connection.
**Exception - when printing via an Airport/Bonjour enabled print server, where the software does a port redirection, USB output from the Mac gets routed to the USB port on Airport Express/Extreme.
I'm pretty sure the PSC2171 is supported by the 2170 driver in the hpijs/ESP ghostscript set:

Looking for Pinout - PCI-CAN 18472E-02 DSUB 9pin

Hello,
I've got a PCI-CAN card from 2003 that I can't seem to find much information about:
NI CAN Series 1 card. Connector is 9-pin D-Sub - Part Number: 184726E-02
Anyone have a pinout or know if this follows the normal NI CAN 9pin output? There's nothing in MAX and nothing from Google or NI from what I was able to search.
Thank you!
Solved!

Hi Waterppk,
The pinout of the 9-pin D-Sub CAN connector is basically identical for Series 1/2, PCMCIA, PCI, PXI, AND USB interfaces (differences center around the usage of pin 9: "V+" ).
You can find the most recent version of the manual here: NI-CAN Hardware and Software Manual and Specifications
Chapter 4 'Connectors and Cables' describes the pinout in detail (see page 4-2) .

Looking for hardware programmable with labview

We are pretty new to labview. We plan on switching to labview for many of our control systems we develope and will utilize panel PC's. We still have many applications that we use a traditional plc and these do not require a GUI of any sort. We would still like to find a solution to switch completely over to labview but I am having a hard time finding a low cost hardware solution to run a labview program. Does anyone have any good ideas? Thanks in advance

... In all reality I think it is a long shot to find any hardware that labview can run on to replace a $80 plc but figured I would ask in the forum. As for the I/O needed it varies for each job so I would most likely have to find a remote I/O solution that is customizable to connect to the controller. We are proficient in ladder logic as well but it would just be nice for us to all be able to program with one language instead of both labview and ladder. Thanks for any suggestions
I don't think you will find a hardware device that you can target LabVIEW with for $80, but maybe you should think about Arduino. There is a LabVIEW library for interfacing, and there are various 'shields' that you can customize for your I/O...

I look for card pci usb 2.

I have a Powermac G4, 1,25 GHz and I like to add to him to a card pci to me usb 2.0. I have several card models to choose, somebody has some and your opinion of them
Adaptec USB2connect 5100
Adaptec DuoConnect
Belkin F5U220
Belkin F5U508
DLINK DU-520

Well, I bought a generic USB 2 card from a local computer store for $19.
Said PC/MAC compatible. Slapped it in a slot in my G4 in Dec, with 10.3.9 running. No problem.
Well, just to tell you that it does not have to be a name brand, for what it is worth.
