We have been using Hawking Network Cards, with the following setups:
GCP - CE 3.0 (3.54)
GCX - CE 4.0 (4.20.18)
The chip for this network card has gone end of life. Is there another known Ethernet card anyone can recommend for the GCP or GCX to provide a second ethernet port? |

Right now it's not looking so great for wired Ethernet cards that work with Windows CE. The ones that we've historically used are no longer produced, and there aren't any new ones out there as far as we have seen.*
If you need a network card for new products, you should probably start looking at 802.11 cards. That's where the industry is moving.
Of course, most ADS products--including the GC Plus and GCX--have Ethernet controllers built in. If you can use the on-board Ethernet socket, you're going to be able to stay ahead of the game.
We'll be glad to discuss the specifics of your application further, if you'd like. Just drop us a line!
Cheers,
Drew

p.s. I've moved your post from the general hardware forum to the CE Drivers forum. The Linux guys hate it when they accidentally read a post that has to do with CE  |

I have aquired a SocketCom Card, Model CF 10/100.
It shows up on my GCX as an NE20001 card, and seems to exist. I am un abled to ping. . .Have you any experiecnce with these cards?

From my reg file:

All NE2000 series cards are known to work on ADS Boards.
Please contact support if you would like to discuss testing of this card. |

We have been working on using the SMC8041TX cards.
In the GCP, the cards seem to work, by simply adding the following to the reg.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\NE20001\Parms\TcpIp]
"EnableDHCP"=dword:0
"DefaultGateway"="0.0.0.0"
"IpAddress"="192.168.250.180"
"Subnetmask"="255.255.255.0"
;"DNS"="0.0.0.0"
;"WINS"="0.0.0.0"
However, on reboots - the system often freezes after windows desktop appears. If I reboot without card, and then re-insert. It appears to work. If I reboot, with a long (5 seconds) off time, it *tends* to boot okay. If I reboot with a short off time, it *tends* to hang at windows desktop.
Any ideas? By hang I mean can't ping, and touchscreen is non-responsive.
