Exclamation enabling wifi

http://www.mydigitallife.info/2006/0...cket-pc-phone/



It’s possible to make the HTC Universal based Pocket PC phone to compatible and able to connect to 802.11g-only access points by a registry tweak, but the speed would still be the same as 802.11b (11 Mbit/s).
The registry tweak is to change and add the following registry decimal values using a registry editing tool like the PHM Registry Editor at your HTC Universal based Pocket PC:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\TIACXWLN1\PARMS: dot11SupportedRateMask=1
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\TIACXWLN1\PARMS: dot11SupportedRateMaskG=8
After adding and editing above registry key, soft-reset the device.






could it be that easy???!!!!

If you read that article it is for a phone (HTC Universal) that has a wi-fi radio in it. This is just solving a probalem that said radio can only connect to a/b wifi hotspots and the user has a wireless-g hotspot. This a hack to connect to a G hotspot only.

Send a message via AIM to storino03
and it doesn't apply to just any device. The Touch has no wifi hardware.

Correct, and this has been discussed many, many times in many, many threads.
