Axim X5 basic
D-Link WCF660w
ROM A05

ok, i don't know if it's just cause i'm dead tired and sick of trying this or what, but i couldn't find anything in the forums that helped me to fix the problem. first activesync wasn't working right, but i dled 3.7 and it's working. then... i figured i needed the newest drivers especially since ppc 2003 seems to have so many issues like that. during the time i was working on it i sware the site changed. at first there was a listing for drivers that worked with the x5, then there was a general ppc2003 beta driver with the dell listed as functional with the driver. so i did all of that...

i tried both drivers, both to no avail. i have the D-Link DCF660W listed amoung my adapters in my wireless ethernet category, but it seems like it does nothing for me. i don't have any app that lets me mess with the wireless stuff, D-Link is supposed to include one right? i guess i'll try getting winic or something and report.

if anyone knows what my problem is please let me know cause i'm going nuts with this. i read in the documentation there's some file i should see in my system menu, but alas... no.

I have a D-Link WCF660w working just fine in an Axim X5. I suggest you uninstall the dirvers you loaded so that there is no D-Link driver. Then load the 2002 driver from the D-Link CD. Select the default directory. Do this with the card in the Axim. When the install is complete go to start/settings/system and you should see an icon labeled DCF-660W. Tapping that should give you access to configure the card and view it's performance.

thanks! it seems to have worked... now i need to work on getting it communicating with the router...

rather odd though that they specifically designed beta drivers for the axim and the 2002 driver works :/, anyway, thanks a lot :)

Does anyone now what to do when you tap on the icon and nothing happens. I have uninstalled and reinstalled 5 or six times and now I can't get to configure the card. I tap the icon and it does nothing. I also have a DCF 660W. Please Help
