Below is the recipe I ended up using to bring up WirelessDriver beta 5.1 on 10.2.6 for a card not initially listed in the installer. This recipe was run on a 250MHz Wallstreet. 1. Install the driver, but do not reboot just yet. 2. Insert the wireless card. 3. Invoke "WirelessDriver beta 5.1/Utilities/Troubleshooting info" script and note the "IOName" value. For a NetGear MA401 this is "pccardb,7300". 4. Open a terminal window and sudo your favorite editor to add your card's IOName to the "/System/Library/Extensions/WirelessDriver.kext/Contents/Info.plist" IONameMatch section as described in http://wirelessdriver.sourceforge.net/faq.html#supported 5. Purge the kext caches with: sudo rm /System/Library/Extensions.ktextcache sudo rm /System/Library/Extensions.mkext 6. Reboot. 7. Troubleshooting info script should now show en1. 8. Set up Wireless Config preferences 9. Adjust your Network preferences. This brought up a NetGear MA401 without trouble. This is a summary of previous posts (especially those by yuriwho). --rich |
