Default Wifi a possibility in vogue

I did purchase the spectec micro sd wifi card in my vogue- it installs properly but for some reason the wifi network doesnt show up. Contacted spectec and they said that vogue doesnt have sdio driver installed. I finally gave up on that- but just realised that there is another possibility- I purchased a mini sd card slot from ebay and when you dissasemble the vogue you should see a empty slot next to micro sd slot and the mini sd slot fits perfectly- the micro sd wifi cards arent so stable yet but mini sd wifi cards are fine- may be you can get wifi on vogue by soldering a mini sd wifi card onto the board

So did you try the mini card yet? I've noticed that slot but I wasn't brave enough to try...

Also, for the microsd, have you tried any of the new Android builds that support wifi?

the slot is not a mini sd card- it is a sim card slot
