Getting wireless g to work on universal

[AndyChecker]

Hi all

I was desperate to get my universal (XDA exec) connected to my wireless network so installed the DJVW_HTC_Wizard_Optimizer_2_1_.0.cab file from the other wizard thread, soft resetted and it now conencts to my wireless g network where as before I could see the network but it would never connect so it is good on that front but....

Obviously I should have just edited the registry on my universal somewhere to get g working as that CapNotify.exe part is now giving me an error after restarting :-( - I get:

The file 'CapNotify' cannot be opened. Either is is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file"

Any ideas how I can lose this but keep my new g wireless ability?

Cheers in advance!

Just to say I deleted that complete registry key for CapsNotify and did a clean up with pocketmechanic and all is working fine after soft resetting and I am on my g network getting 600K+ speeds so am happy.

Cheers

The Universal only has an 802.11b radio I thought

Well I could see my g only network before and no matter what settings (54g-Auto, 54gLRS, 54g only) I tried I couldn't connect but now I can connect and surf brilliantly using either 54g-auto or 54glrs but after changing my router to g only it will not connect so it has definitly changed something but maybe I was hasty to say is now 54g - my bad

Sorry,


But which software you use on your Universal to see the speed of WiFi?


Thanks

I just loaded up http://text.deslreports.com and clicked speed test

I used the cab for Wizzard but I didn't see any change. I set my WiFi router in g mode only and I cannot Connect now...

I also was under the impression that the HTC Universal was only capable of wireless 802.11b....Can it do G?

Ooo, my out of the box says 250kbit/sec, that can't be right surely!?

No it won't be! If you're connected to a wireless network then it's giving you the speed of the connection ebtween the wireless network and the outside world. HOWEVER... if you're using GPRS or UMTS then WOW! :wink:

I measured about 900kbps using a PC on the same wireless network on this site, so I'm not 100% convinced it isn't measuring SOMETHING useful since the numbers are wildly different (compared to 250kpbs on the Exec).

If I went to the speed test on adslguide.org.uk I saw 1878kbps downstream on my PC (which is roughly what I expect)....can't test from Exec as I don't have a browser that can run Java (I don't think?).

I think its just a flakey calculation.
