Hi,

can you tell me more about having the Linksys
WCF11 wireless lan adapter work with a Casio PDA.

I have an E-15 PDA and I get an error message
when installing the WCF11 software. It says that
the adapter will not work with my PDA and it
refuses to launch the install process on the PDA.

My E-15 runs a standard CE 2.11 without anything particular.

Can you please help me,
Thanks!

Well - if your PDA runs CE 2.11, it should install. Try downloading specific CAB file from Linksys's website for the MIPS processor (E-15 uses VR4111). If you have Linksys WCF11 card, go to http://linksys.com/support/support.asp?spid=71

If setup still doesn't work - copy a MIPS CAB file to your Casio via ActiveSync and run it from there.

However, even after you install it - you might face problems. I still wasn't able to run my Linksys WCF11 on Casio E-100. Apparently, there is no easy way to specify IP settings (gateway, WINS, DNS) in Windows CE 2.11 for Linksys (unlike PocketPC OS, where we have network settings in control panel). I tried playing with registry - however, it messes up big time.

Does anybody knows if there's any patch (network support) to install on Windows CE 2.11 to be able to change DNS, etc?
