Just curious if anyone has successfully been able to get wireless working on the mobilepro 780. I can't seem to get my linksys type 2 cf card working, so I'm looking for suggestions on a card that will work. The linksys gets a connect with the network, but can't ping the server or transfer any information at all. Seems strange to me, but I'd really like to get something working even if I have to buy a new card, either cf or pcmcia.
Any help would be appreciated!!!

I have mobile pro 800 v3.01 (core2.11) with a Linksys WPC11 v3 which uses same driver as compact flash version. I get the same problem. Link light shows connection, card registers with Linksys wireless access point but does not get assigned an IP address by dhcp server. Can set IP address manually but it cannot be pinged nor can it ping anything on network. Also I can see Received data rate fluctuating both Tx rate. I was going to buy compact flash to see if that would get around problem but now I think I'll wait.
Has anyone got the a mobile pro 800 or 780 to work with wireless ethernet (802.11a/b/g). I have wasted a lot of time with Linksys technical support who have not helped.
