Windows CE 5.0 and RF regulatory issues

The issue with the RF profile not working sometimes, might be down to the incorrect "regulatory" information being set on the terminal.

If you tap the signal strength icon in the bottom right of the display you get a menu.

Select Options and you'll get a dialogue box.

Select from the drop down "Regulatory".

Ensure country is set to UK and the "Enable 802.11d" check box is NOT selected.

Then SAVE and exit this.

*** However this is NOT saved in flash memory and is lost when the device cold boots. The fix for this is as follows ...

After performing the above, repeat it with differences as follows ...

Tap the signal strength icon in the bottom right of the display you get menu.

Select Options and you'll get a dialogue box.

Select from the drop down "Export".

Then press "Export Options" button

Then select "OK" (do not change default names or folders, just say OK)

Now, and in conjunction with RegSave, *ALL* options of the 9090 are saved to persist through a Cold Boot.


Then back in the original menu ...

Select "Manage Profiles"

Choose the desired profile.

Hold the stylus on the profile text for a second or so, when the menu appears, select "Connect"

Now exit the profile manager menu back to the main desktop and double tap the "Wavelink TE" icon.
