Download S24MC392B67_01.exe to your PC
(I have a folder named Axim on my C: drive for all Axim drivers/apps)
This is a self-extracting file containing Mobile Companion and the drivers
Run the self-extracting file: S24MC392B67_01.exe
It will create sub-directories with the setup/install program
Connect your Axim to your PC with ActiveSync running and your Axim recognized
Run the setup.exe file in the Mobile Companion Installer sub-directory
There are three options:
[ ] Install Mobile Companion on this computer
[ ] Install Mobile Companion on a Mobile 2003 device
[ ] Install drivers only on a Mobile 2003 device.
After several installs due to hard resets, I found I had the best results if I installed the drivers only FIRST (third selection)
After the necesssary soft reset, reconnect with ActiveSync and run the setup program again to install the Mobile Companion app.

You still have to configure the device for the WiFi connection you're trying to establish but it saves the profiles so when you are within range of a connection you've made before it will do an auto-connect for you.

The Symbol LA4137 is a great card for portables due to the very low power consumption. It has very good range and seems to work at distances comparable to my laptop. It's even found hotspots my laptop didn't notice. I wish I had a /g version instead of the /b but ya' can't have everything.

Good luck.
