Summary: WCF12 and the ipaq h2215
Review: I'm going on 4 months now and still this card does not work with my ipaq. I'm running WIN CE4.20 on the ipaq, I've tried installing the drivers every-which-way I can think of to no avail. Linksys support did not help, they are just as baffled as to why. I'm running a 3-system wireless network using Linksys everything works great, just can't get this card to work. I've been reading all kinds of reviews from all kinds of web-sites for this card, and have come to the conclusion that it does not work. I'm going to use bluetooth instead, hope that works.

Summary: Works with a little effort
Review: When first installing the card into a WindowsCE 3.0-based Casio E-125, it complained it could not find "PRISMSTA.exe or one of its components". The on-line chat system with Linksys technical support was helpful, but their only response was to send Beta drivers which didn't help. It turns out, at least on my system, PRISMSTA.exe was looking for a needed library file called 'mfcce211.dll', a Microsoft foundation classes dll for Windows CE 2.11. Once I located the file on the web and placed it in the same folder as the PRISMSTA.exe file(I expect it would also work when placed in the Windows subdirectory), the configuration utility worked and I was able to configure the card for my home network. I purchased the card through Amazon and hopefully this will help anyone else with the same problem. All my other 802.11 devices are Linksys, work great, and this card is no exception. It appears the only weakness was in the installation program that one would expect to verify the presence of other files the driver/utility depends upon.

Summary: Absolute piece of Junk
Review: Don't listen to people that will tell you this will work with PPC 2003 it may or may not. I have a tell Axim with the 2003 upgrade and have spent the last 5 hours trying to get this to install, it won't. The Linksys support is a joke and not worth the effort. I have given up. Do your self a favor and find another card. I was going to sell it on ebay, but don't want the bad Karma of passing of this piece of junk to another unsuspecting soul.
