Wireless PCMCIA and MiamiDX

rfancella · 23 May 2020, 00:14

Hello all,
I have a little annoyance with my 1200. I use a PCMCIA wireless card and MiamiDX 10. I can enable it and it works great, but every time I click the offline button in Miami, the machine locks up. The wireless light on the card flashes and the only way I can resolve it is to pull the card. Is this a common problem?

I am using a Linksys WPC11 PCMCIA card using the Prisim2 drivers. Along with ClassicWB AdvSP and KS3.1.4 with the OS3.1.4.1 patched in. I also have the CardPatch and CardReset in my User-Startup. I don't think it has anything to do with the roms or OS as this was happening with the stock KS3.0 and all versions of ClassicWB.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Ron

Do you have a PCMCIA reset fix installed in your A1200, either as a hardware solution or by means of one of the available software fixes?

EDIT: Sorry, just saw that you mentioned Cardpatch and Cardreset.

I used to have such a card, a pcmcia wifi card plugged in A1200, running with MiamiDX.
And sometimes, but in my case any time during the connection, it could lock up so that the only way out is to unplug it.
I have no explanation and did not find anything to solve the problem.
However, it did not happen when just connecting two A1200s together, without any internet access.

I have this same set up and do not have these problems.

What version motherboard is in your 1200? I have 1D.4

Matt,
I have a Rev 1B.
I do also have an ACA1220 installed. I haven't tried without the ACA installed.
