[Done] WTB: CF-30 (or 19?) Fingerprint reader parts

Hi,

[I've now got one, request completed]



does anyone have a spare fingerprint reader kit, new or used, to suit a CF-30 Mk3?

Thanks,
Robert.

Re: verizon 4G connection not working

Hi guys, just to fix a misconception: The CF-29, or Intel 220BG generally, works perfectly with WPA2. The only problems are if you do not have XP SP3, as earlier versions did not include WPA2 support in the wireless supplicant (MS Zero Config service). If you do not want to use XP SP3, there is a ho...

Re: CF-30 Wifi upgrade

Did you follow the exact drive upgrade procedure & use the correct wireless switch? http://pc-dl.panasonic.co.jp/dl/docs/17144 My CF-30 Mk3 uses the 5100AGN as standard, and I have that working perfectly with both Win 7 and XP (on two different drives). If I remember right, the XP version requir...

Re: GOBI2000 - cross-model compatibility?

Well, I received the GOBI2000 upgrade 'kit' - it consists of the GOBI2000 module only, no other hardware... Luckily that's all I need, though I was expecting the other parts that would be required for use in a non-WAN Toughbook. Anyway, I swapped the new module for the generic one, installed the Pan...

Re: GOBI2000 - cross-model compatibility?

Hi Rob, mine has the sled & mini express card, but came with the older gobi module, so no GPS capability. As long as the CF-31 also uses mini express, I expect it would work as the Panasonic carrier select app that includes the drivers works with both the -30 and -31. With the non-panasonic modu...

GOBI2000 - cross-model compatibility?

Hi all, so the generic GOBI2000 module I bought to update my CF-30 Mk3 (from GOBI1000) just does not work. It came with Acer drivers, which load fine - but no connection controller ever sees that GOBI is installed... So much for believing compatibility claims from Chinese resellers on ebay (it was s...

Re: CF-30 at last! with GOBI..

For info, I have the GOBI card working on the 'O2' network here in England. I used the Panasonic carrier select app & set it for AT&T (as they use HSDPA, the same as in the UK/Europe). I could not configure a connection with the AT&T connection manager, but I found a free connection mana...

CF-30 at last! with GOBI..

Hi guys, after a couple of years of flawless operation from my CF-29, I've finally managed to acquire a CF-30. It's a Mark 3, CF-30KCPALAM to be exact. It seems to have just about every possible option except the fingerprint reader and looks like it just came out the factory, so I'm rather happy! I'...

Re: Where is everyone?

Well, I'm still checking in both here & NBR on a regular basis.

I've just been too tied up with work to do much in regard to Toughbooks, and until I sell one of my -29s I can't afford to look at a -30...
