I have a couple of ageing 802.11b cards from Sitecom and an 802.11b ADSL Router from Billion. A recent firmware upgrade on the router gave me the ability to use WPA, but the firmware on the sitecom card did not support this. The firmware upgrades on the sitecom website (www.sitecom.com) are only windows programs with non-hex formats. Anyway, I now have successfully upgraded the card to station firmware version 1.71 and all is well. The full details are: Card: Sitecom PCMCIA WL-002 (AKA WN-PCC-01) Manfid: 0xd601,0x0002 Before: NICID: id=0x8002 v1.0.0 (HWB3163-01,02,03,04 Rev A) PRIID: id=0x15 v0.3.0 STAID: id=0x1f v1.3.4 (station firmware) After: NICID: id=0x8002 v1.0.0 (HWB3163-01,02,03,04 Rev A) PRIID: id=0x0015 v0.3.0 STAID: id=0x001f v1.7.1 (station firmware) Firmware file used: s1010701.hex from http://linux.junsun.net/intersil-prism/firmware/1.7.1/ Thank you again for your great page.
