Fighting with the Axim, a bit
by balleman on Dec.13, 2004, under Computers
Today the Axim refused to connect via Wifi. Thinking about it, I realized that this hadn’t been tried since I had attempted to connect with a Bluetooth WAP a few days earlier. Trying everything in the configuration, and reading over sites didn’t help at all. So, I looked into firmware updates and found that I could upgrade from A02 to A05. I did so, and wireless worked in the “clean” install, but didn’t again when I restored my backup. Then I dug through the Windows folder and ran the WirelessPower executable, which fixed things right up. I should have tried that earlier… the Dell WLAN Utility was showing that the wireless card was not present, but I would have never thought this executable would have been the only way to power it up. Oh well. I have new firmware now :).
