I don't know what the problem is with your card but I use my home network wirelessly just fine.

I would love to use my WIFI card with my bn on my home network. I was very disappointed when I realized that this is not possible right now.

This time, it concerns >> 3rd party hardware with BrailleNote mPowers: >> Earlier, Dean Jackson clarified that you can in fact install 3rd party >> device drivers on your BrailleNote. This is due to the two reasons: >> one, because BraillenOte runs under Windows CE 4.2, 3rd party hardware >> that is designed for Windows CE 4.2 devices (Windows Mobile 2003 >> devices included) should work on BrailleNote; second, because it has >> ARM processor, any device driver that is compatible with ARM >> processors (X-Scale, Strong ARM, etc) should work.
