Wildpackets Inc & My New Member Greeting :)
Posted: Tue Aug 31, 2010 1:24 am
Hi Guys,
I'm new to these forums so just want to start off with a big hello to you all.
I purchased an X100e almost 6 months ago and have been extremely happy with it; my first experience with Lenovo and I must say the build quality and especially the software support (x64 drivers) and Lenovo's own software applications have been awesome. Even the automatic driver update facility is a bonus (you won't find that w/Dell...)
Anyway, as per the subject title, I'm looking for a WiFi card that is supported by drivers produced by Wildpackets. If anyone has experience with using Wildpackets' software/drivers I would love to chat. Obviously my built in WiFi card is a no-go and the X100e's BIOS Whitelist is very limited in cards it will boot with - I'm almost certain their are no Wildpacket supported cards. That means a USB style card and I realize that there is not a great deal of support by Wildpackets, although some are meant to work OK. If anyone has direct experience in this area and can offer some advice I would be most appreciative.
I may post this topic on the forum.lenovo site and possibly elsewhere here. Sorry if you have to come accross it multiple times; I'm just rushed for info on this issue and hope to resolve it ASAP.
Thanks again for your time. Hope to hear from as many people as possible.
Regards,
mezcal
