N560 WiFi Questions

[Inaki]

Allright I'm sure this could be a really basic question but I'm a bit lost with the WiFi on the N560.

First off, I have no idea what this EC2 thing is or how to configure the WiFi on it. All I see is a little globe that only gives me an option to turn on and off WLAN power but no settings to connect or choose networks. In the EC2 software I only get a Hotspot mode that won't let me connect to networks with passwords.

So, do I actually HAVE a WLAN adapter int he PDA? Or do I need to buy one to put in the expansion port? I was under the impression it already came with WLAN in it. And if so, how do I connect to different networks, even those with passwords? I tried managing in the "Connections" tab but I don't get any option to set up any wireless connections, only through cell service?

If anyone can shine any light on this that would be great!

Hi - I have the same prblem. Did you (or any one else) ever get it sorted out?

Hey Pete! Sadly my PDA didnt' work for what I needed, but it was a software problem not a WiFi problem. Yes, you do have WiFi enabled on your PDA, EC2 is an add on by Fujitsu and to be honest I just deleted it and that fixed all my problems. It takes a few tries and a bit of Google work, but in the end its easier and more reliable to do it through WM5 than EC2.

I hope this helps, if not feel free to send me a PM and I'll try and help out.
