Hello
was there an update ? Because I see that the XDA II is in
the compatibility list (http://www.spectec.com.tw/sdw820.htm)

D you still have a problem ?
I wished to buy that card on my XDA II (upgraded WM 6.1)

Well, please search. There is a lot of posts around here about these spectec wifi cards. They work pretty well, but you have to find the right driver. The wm6 driver does not seem to work well on my device, but the 2003SE or the wm5 one (I don't remember which one, give a try...) works flawlessly (even on wm6.1)

hi,
i am having no end of problems with my Spectec 820 and my himalaya XDA 2.

I got it going when i was running the stock WM 2003, but i have since updated to WM5 and now WM6 and have not been able to get it running with any of the drivers off the website.

I have used all of the drivers (WM 2003, WM5 WM6) as suggested on this site when i have had WM5 and WM6 installed with absolutely no luck.

The only glimmer of hope was that when running the WM5 driver on WM6 it came up with wifi symbol on the top of the Today screen but the device wouldnt do anything else, i couldnt get a connection, it was if it recognised there was some kind of wifi card but nothing more, no networks, no searching not a sausage.

I am very frustrated as i really want WIFI but dont want to give up on my Himalaya as even now, running WM6 i think it is a great device.

I am contemplating buying a SPectec 821 but i am worried it will not work.....

Anybody ha ve any ideas?
