Hi all.

Just received my spectec SDIO Wifi card to my Gene but I can't get it working!!
The spectec utility doesn't seem to like WM 2005 and it doesn't work.
Someone had the same problem?

Without this utility, is it possible to connect to a wlan??

HELPPPPPP!!!! :(

Regards,

Hi ,

I got HTC P3400 ( Gene ) upgraded to WM6 .. and I got the spected wifi card and work great in normal cases ..

I got this wifi card just to use SIP ( voip ) apps with my gene and it work little fine with fring ( hope to find something better )

BUT when my device lock ( turn screen to blank ) it CLOSE the wifi connection so I get DC from the sip server .. and if I canceled the turn off device feature it eat the battery ( I think so )

so I wonder if there a way that I make the gene keep wifi up all time even while the device is locked ?? ( do not know if it is stupid question coz it is so easy to be done or noway to be done .. I just hope someone could help me in that )

Hi willyhopa,
I aquire the sd wifi card to use with my p3400 and I can´t work with fring, they can´t find the wifi connection. Do you have the same problem?
How you setup your fring to use wifi connections?

Best regards.

After much brain hammering I finally got WIFI LAN to work on my HTC p3400 (OLD GENE).

You will need:
1. A WLAN SDIO card ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital )
2. A driver for that wlan SDIO card

The card I have has no brand information, so I used the FCC ID : S2Y - SDIOWLAN - 11B...
Searches came up with this driver, turns out the card is SPECTEC.

Install the driver (whichever it may be) on your GENE, try to get WM CommManager if you don't have one.

Get a nice decent web browser :P

...and you're off!!!

--here's the driver I am using--

Hey, try changing simcard and then replacing it back. This will reset your network settings and the IE will work again.

I don't think you'll find them in any shops...
Try looking in your normal MOBILE SHOPPEE type places....
IF you cannot find anything in shops, then try this link:
