Re: [Wirelessdriver-support] Re: Apple card support with new Airport

[Brian W <br...@jo...>]

An update:

I tried the latest AirPort driver (v3.1) with an Orinoco Gold card in 
a Ti G4 400 running 10.2.6... no luck. Card didn't power up (no 
lights) although the menubar did acknowledge the card's existence 
(meaninglessly). No AirPort choice available in the Network 
preferences. Apple's AirPort utilities didn't recognize any available 
hardware.

(I uninstalled the WirelessDriver and rebooted before this attempt. I 
inserted the card after the computer had finished rebooting; is it 
possible that Apple's drivers could require the presence of a card at 
startup?? Might make sense as naturally their native AirPort cards 
are not hot-swappable.)

A reintsall of the WirelessDriver and another reboot for good measure 
and I'm back online as before. Guess I'll try again the NEXT time 
AirPort is updated!
