This has a number of fixes:
• Corrects issue where the handheld fails to switch between access points with different index keys.
• Corrects communication issue with Cisco Access Points that have Aironet Extensions activated.
• Corrects issue where the handheld fails to reconnect to an access point with Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) enabled.
• Corrects roaming issue between an open access point and an access pointwith WPA Pre-Shared Key version (WPA-PSK) enabled.
Please note that this requires ROM Version 1.10.xx. If ROM version 1.10.xx is not installed, download and install SoftPaq Number SP28385 for an iPAQ Pocket PC h4100 Series handheld or SoftPaq Number SP28375 for an iPAQ Pocket PC h4300 Series handheld BEFORE installing this ROM update.
The installer is only available for English right now and is 2.3MB. It appears to be a RAM patch, not a ROM patch. If anyone tries it, see how much RAM it requires when it installs. You can do this in ActiveSync's installer by answering "No" to the "Install to the default location." It'll have the RAM requirements. Then install it to RAM. This most certainly won't work on a storage card or in a ROM file store. :wink:
