| 194983 | 2003-11-26 21:13:00 | Hi y'all, i just got a couple of those wireless cards from dse (Cat No: XH8135 - $69.00 at all good dse stores!), and they work just fine for my home wireless network, but i had a couple of questions. Once you have set up WEP (this is for an Ad-Hoc setup), do you have to type in the key every time you want to connect? Also, i would like to upgrade from WEP to WPA - do you know if dick smith have firmware upgrades for this? Im presuming that these cards are rebranded, so even if you could tell me the original brand, i could get the upgrade from their website. Thanks for any help given. |

Otherwise find the FCC ID on the card itself, and do a google search for it, or enter it into here: gullfoss2.fcc.gov and see if it comes up with the manufacturer. |
