GOBI Device not found on my CF-31 :(

I just got my new GOBI 2000 card today from Heartland and installed it in my CF-31 and it isn't showing up in the BIOS or in Device Manager within Windows



Additionally the software is saying "Gobi Device not Found" when I go to install it from the GOBI software



Any ideas?



Are there any dip switches that I'm missing?

I currently have BIOS 1.00L19 - is there and updated BIOS that would "unlock" the WWAN capabilities?



Thanks

Did you do the usual remove battery ac adapter hold the power switch down for 10 sec

Go into bios and set defaults

Thats the procedure for a wwan install

Alex,

The re-set you describe should be very prominently displayed in all the model specific FAQ's.

IMHO

SCREW YOU PANASONIC AND YOUR "YOU HAVE TO BE PROFESSIONALLY TRAINED BS" (They wouldn't even talk to me on the phone!)! I WIN!! I used what tango tough told me in post 21 on this thread to make it work on my CF-31 Mark 1! Even in the PDF it says that it will work! IT DID INDEED WORK!!!!!



CF-52 WWAN retrofit



Thanks!



If you must know, I used an MSDOS boot CD and a flash drive to do this. I boot from the CD drive into a dos prompt and I had the files for the GOBI flash on a flash drive formatted as FAT32 so DOS would actually see it... It acted as the C: drive and I just typed in WWANEXE.exe and hit the "e" on the keyboard and BOOOM! FIXED!



It now shows as working in the BIOS AND in device manager!
