Re: WPC54G upgrade available
Has anybody had trouble installing this update (v1.3)? I can't seem to get it to work on my Windows-ME laptop. Any ideas on what I could be missing? I download, unzip, run setup (which uninstalls the current drivers), then run setup again to install the new drivers. However, there are errors noted on reboot and the card does not function properly. I have to revert back to v1.21. It would be nice to have the WPA supplicant but this v1.3 just won't run for me. |

I installed the new firmware last night and so far, everything appears stable. I remembered in the original installation instructions re: XP installation not to install the utility. We just updated the driver and all seems fine. I often wonder why XP doesn't play well with the "Linksys Utility" as it actually looks pretty cool. I guess they believe "Wireless Zero" is good enough

I have a Win 98 (1st ed) laptop that I tried to install this on. At startup there are errors trying to run ODHOST.EXE, then I cannot even get WEP to work, much less WPA. I had to go back to the older version (1.21? from 06/24/03) before I could get my laptop to communicate with my WRTG54 again.

Reno, NV | I had problems with Odhost.exe when I first installed too. That's the Odyssey Host networking service which is the WPA supplicant. Try an uninstall/reinstall with your card removed. |

SlimyPizza and MikeBomb:
I downloaded the driver a couple of night ago and there was this at the bottom of the page:
If you are having problems using this Adapter and you have a Texas Instrument CardBus Controller, please download this driver here.
Is it possible that you have this cardbus controller? |
