Hi all,

Is any WLAN Driver Sample code is available on net? or any body know from
where i take reference for WLAN Driver.

I am using Wireless CF card on WINCE 5.0. I required sample code for that.
So please if any body know then help us.

If you install the shared source that comes with Platform Builder, there
should be a driver in there
\WINCE500\PRIVATE\WINCEOS\COMM\NDISMODS\LAN\PCX500. There is at least one
open source driver for CE, I think that you'll find it on MSDN,
msdn.microsoft.com.

Thanks to reply Paul,

I have not installed shared source in platform builder i found one driver on
net :
Atheros AR6000 (SDIO or CF interface) WLAN device driver for X86 , But i am
using PXA270 processor. Can i use this driver in PXA270??

Is any way to solve this problem? any another source code for WLAN Driver on
net?

I found one PCX500.DLL (CISCO Aironet 340/350 PCMCIA WLAN Card ) i have
added it into platform.bib file and i have used it in WINCE it is like same
as islp2nds.dll (Intersil Prism2 WLAN PCMCIA Driver) *IS IT* both driver
working same or not?

THew name "for x86" clearly indicates that the answer is no.

Go back and install the shared source.

That driver is for the Cisco Aironet card. Not surprisingly it will work
for that card. It does not work for other cards.
