wifi connectivity

[fondoo]

i just purchased a socket go e300 wifi sdio card and the card reads when i pop it in my 700w, but i cant get internet explorer to load any of my websites. does anyone know why? i know i'm connected, cuz the wireless manager tells me.

Did this ever get resolved for you? What SDIO card should I get that works? Thanks.

the e300 is extremely buggy. you are only able to connect WEP and not WPA, and aside from that you'll have a difficult time disconnecting from the WIFI. the only way to disconnect is to reset the Treo. the e300 is fast and from my experience is faster than the palm wifi. but for stability i would get the palm wifi card. FYI: the palm wifi also supports WEP only. i hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply, what speed are you getting out of your Palm Wifi?
