[Wirelessdriver-support] Re: Cabletron roamabout

Henrik,
It depends on the chipset that your card is using.  The driver only=20
works with certain chipsets, like the Atheros 5002 series.  See the FAQ=20=

for some of the cards.  Since Cabletron has a driver for OS 9, I would=20=

assume it will work with an OS x driver.

You can also buy a driver from http://www.orangeware.com for only $15=20
and works very good.  They have a free trial period to see if it works.

  For this driver, 10.3.3 is fine.  It works with 10.3.4 also, and=20
earlier versions.  It is probably not installed correctly.

   Double-click on the "Troubleshooting Info" program in the Utilities=20=

folder of the driver.  (If you can't find it, do a command-F to locate=20=

it)

You should see this in the output:

IF you do not have these three lines, then the software is not=20
installed correctly.

This is where you must put things:
WirelessDriver.kext goes into  /System/Library/Extensions

WirelessDriver PPane.prefPane goes into /Library/PreferencePanes

Run the troubleshooting.info program again.  You should have what I=20
show above.  Make sure the privileges are the same.

Reboot the computer.

Go to System Preferences and you will have a Wireless Config panel=20
there.  Enter your information and you should be  up and running.

Good luck,
Kori
