Senao 2511 CD - Flash Primary & Secondary - Problems

[Jay Zhang]

I had similar error from Winupdate with my Linksys WPC11 v3 (Prism 3).
nicid: 0x801b v1.0.0
priid: 0x15 v1.1.0
staid: 0x15 v1.4.2

Winupdate reports error, and if I continue, it will corrupt the firmware.

Turn off the "download" option in Windows driver will help Winupdate to 
detect the right firmware version.

)

But I still got errors. Even the DOS based tool 0.3e doesn't work for 
me( http://www.hawkingtech.com/download/we110.exe ) .

The DOS tool v0.5 (http://home.eunet.cz/jt/wifi/ )
is the only tool that can updates my card (with option -3842)


You may have to try them by yourself.
