Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately, this isn't doing the trick either. Any other ideas? Wallstreet PB 233/OS 10.2.6 / Lucent Wavelan Silver. Thanks!

Hey all, Just installed the wireless driver for Jaguar, and for some reason my system doesn't seem to see the card. It's a Lucent Wavelan Silver that ran months ago when I tried out the wireless driver; but for some reason, now, there is no En (1) (or similar) option. Any ideas? Thanks! jonathan |

The opensource wirelessdriver is only for OS X only. But IOxperts have OS 9 drivers for many WLan cards. http://www.ioxperts.com/80211b.html //Rob On torsdag, jul 3, 2003, at 21:01 Europe/Stockholm, Todd Lamothe wrote: > Hi All - > I'm curious about whether there is support out there for the "Senao > 200mW > Integral Antenna PCMCIA Card" in OS 9 for G3 PowerBooks (pismo). > > I am familiar with the sourceforge area developing drivers for OS X > (and I > haven't yet gotten hold of one of these cards) but I have a customer > who > would like to know if this card would work in OS 9. > > Any assistance would be appreciated! > -Todd > -- > Todd > <wir...@tl...> -- To be is to do. - Socrates To do is to be. - Sartre Do be do be do. - Sinatra |

Hello all, I've been running an egenius card, on my TI 400 PowerBook, connected to an Airport Base Station and Cable Modem - it's been working flawlessly! My question is: Is it possible to connect to an iBook, which is set up as a Software Base Station connected (hard wired) to a DSL Modem? Thanks in advance. |

well, i was able to sort out my IOPCCardFamily.kext
issue with Pacifist and my tibook os x disc.
is this the correct ver for os x 10.2.6?
Index Refs Address Size Wired Name

com.apple.iokit.IOPCCardFamily (1.2.1)
by card now shows up in the upper right taskbar area,
however, i still cannot get en1 or en2 options under
the network prefs window.
i'm not sure if my card, the proxim orinoco silver
802.11a/b combo card is the same orinoco that's
supported by the driver. as either this card has gone
thru many manufacturers or many companies make a card
by this name?
my network prefs only show modem/built in
ethernet/airport
my system is a rev 3 Titanium 15" G4 1GHz powerbook w/
built in wireless. however, the range sucks, so i'm
trying to get this 3rd party card to work.
I've tried removing the kext cache files and
rebooting. uninstalling/reinstalling and rebooting.
rebooting with card in, rebooting with card out.
copying the files over by hand when they didn't
install right (WirelessDriver.kext, WirelessConfig).
blowing everything away, reboot, reinstall, reboot.
the funky thing is the IOName of the card when i do:
ioreg -l, i get "ethernet" for the IOName

Hi all, I've royally screwed up while trying to get this driver to work with my wireless card. I've gone and installed the "IOPCCardFamily v.1.1.0 installer" without reading the doc closely enough first. And I was running OS X 10.2.4 - now i've got an older IOPCCardFamily.kext and I can't locate a proper version. My pc wireless card no longer shows up in the taskbar on the upper right corner on my desktop. Is it possible to replace the extension file with the correct version I should have, and everything will work? I've updated to OS X 10.2.6 currently. My previous problem was that the Wireless Driver wasn't installing correctly. However, even after installing the files manually and wiping the cache files I would still only get a greyed out "Network Configuration" in the System Prefs->WirelessConfig panel. I tried every solution I could find on the list archives having to do with getting EN1 or EN2 to show up in System Prefs->Network, but no go. It must have been in my endless frustration that I stupidly replaced my IOPCCard kext file. No I'm doubly screwed. I'm running: Ti Powerbook G4 rev 3 OS X 10.2.6 Proxim Orinoco Silver 802.11a/b combo card (before I messed up the IOPCCardFamily kext file, the wireless card would show up in the upper right corner with the only option selectable as "Power Off" Any Suggestions including how to back up my system to an older OS X version without losing all my files would be greatly appreciated. I'm a new mac user. Thank you! __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo! DSL - Now only $29.95 per month! http://sbc.yahoo.com |

Hi All - I'm curious about whether there is support out there for the "Senao 200mW Integral Antenna PCMCIA Card" in OS 9 for G3 PowerBooks (pismo). I am familiar with the sourceforge area developing drivers for OS X (and I haven't yet gotten hold of one of these cards) but I have a customer who would like to know if this card would work in OS 9. Any assistance would be appreciated! -Todd -- Todd <wir...@tl...> |

Run the troubleshooting script and make sure the wirelessdriver is installed properly. The Wirelessdriver.kext should be installed in /System/Library/Extensions/ folder and the WirelessDriver PPane.prefPane should be in /Library/PreferencePanes/ folder. If your card is supported by the wirelessdriver without editing the info.plist file then you can delete the Extensions.kextcache and Extensions.mkext in the /System/Library/ folder. You have to use the terminal to delete both files using the sudo commnad. sudo rm -r Extensions.mkext and sudo rm -r Extensions.kextcache. After both files are delete restart the computer and your card should show up in the network preferences. //Rob On onsdag, jul 2, 2003, at 19:11 Europe/Stockholm, Andrew Wood wrote: > Hi, > > EN1 or EN2 do not appear in the active network settings after > installing wireless driver 1.0.0b5. > > Current options are: > Built-in Ethernet > Internal Modem > IrDA Modem Port > > The Wavelan card is seen by the computer.

Hi, EN1 or EN2 do not appear in the active network settings after installing wireless driver 1.0.0b5. Current options are: Built-in Ethernet Internal Modem IrDA Modem Port The Wavelan card is seen by the computer. An icon in the top right corner of the screen on the Finder control bar provides access to a menu to power off the card. I'm using a Lucent Wavelan Silver card on a 400 Mhz Ti Powerbook running OS X 10.2.6. Thanks Andy |

If you install new .kext files in the system sometimes the system doesn't load the new driver unless the kext cache files are recreated. You can compare it to the OS 9 Desktop files which sometimes needed to be recreated to show icons properly on newly intsalled software. //Rob On tisdag, jul 1, 2003, at 20:05 Europe/Stockholm, John E.Leaird wrote: > Rob: > > Is it true that there's no problem if those files are recreated and > are still present in the library after I restart the computer?

They are both still in /System/Library. They're re-created on boot. You don't have to drop to single user to remove them either; if you think you're having kernel extension caching issues, just remove them and then re-boot. |

You don't have to reboot the computer in Singleuser mode to remove the=20= kextcache files. Start up as usual. Then open the Terminal and enter=20 sudo rm -r /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache and then sudo rm -r=20 /System/Library/Extensions.mkext when you are done restart the=20 computer.

Okay. I give up. I have tried repeatedly to remove the Extensions.kextcache and Extensions.mkext files from /System/Library -- with no success. I get to the terminal application fine by restarting with Command and S depressed, and I get down to the last line that says "sh-2.05a#: ". When I try to run the sudo rm -r (filename) command from that point, I'm told that the file is read-only. But just above that is a string of lines: Singleuser boot -- fsck not done Root device is mounted read-only If you want to make modifications to files, run '/sbin/fsck -y' first and then 'sbin/mount -uw/' I do that (seemingly successfully), and then run the sudo rm -r on the two files. Each time, I get no confirmation that the files have been removed, just the "sh-2.05a#:" at the beginning of the next line. After I reboot, and do a Find on these files, I find that neither has been removed. They are both still in /System/Library. One other possible problem is that above the "Singleuser boot" string is a line (just under the "IODeviceTree" line, that says: ATA Disk: Identify data is incorrect - bad checksum What's happening? What am I doing wrong? I'm obviously no programmer, but I didn't think I had to be. Any advice from anyone on this would be appreciated. Thanks. John L. |

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! brian @joannou.net >At 5:44 PM -0700 06/29/03, someone wrote: >>Don't know about all the "b" cards, I can confirm it >>works on Linksys one that the wirelessdriver >>supported.

Okay, I may be stretching the limits of the card but I want to know if anyone has managed to use an AirPort (or clone card) in the SpringBoard slot of a HandSpring Visor? I'd love to have access to my home network from my PDA.

I'm trying to connect 2 of my computers together via a wireless network so I can share files between them. The first computer is a iMac running Mac OS 9.1 with an Airport card inside. All airport software is already installed. The second is a Powerbook 500Mhz G3 (OS 10.1.5) with a Farallon Skyline 11mps card. I have downloaded and installed the necessary wireless driver. How do I now go about setting the computers up so they can share files? I just need to be able to transfer some large files between the two computers and thats it. I also have an airport base station sitting around if its any help?!! Much appreciate any help someone can offer me as my dad used to do all of this but he's passed away. Cheers Rob |

Hi Tom, What is your configuration? I moved the WirelessDriver.kext and rebooted, but I don't get any airport option in the Network Preferences.

Don't know about all the "b" cards, I can confirm it works on Linksys one that the wirelessdriver supported. It also works well with my Buffalo "g" card as well. ===== What we do in life echoes in eternity. -Maximus Decimus Meridius (Russel Crowe in Gladiator) |

Never mind, I've got it working. The problem was the kext was not installed with the installer. I build the kext from source and installed it by hand. -Dom On 6/25/03 4:32 PM, "dom" <do...@cr...> wrote: > Hi all, > > I'm trying to get a WaveLan Silver card to work in a Ti G4/500 powerbook > running 10.2.6.

Hey folks, This MacWorld piece: <http://maccentral.macworld.com/news/2003/06/27/airport/> Seems to state that certain 802.11g PCMCIA cards (well, it says CardBus... what *is* the difference, anyway?) will work with Apple's native drivers under AirPort 3.1... Has anyone tried this out? Would it apply to any 802.11b cards, too? Interesting news! brian @joannou.net |

If your card is working presently for wireless networking, you should be set. The requirement you are reading is for a 600mhz G3, or any G4 or G5 computer. It actually uses about 78-100kbit of bandwidth, which is far less than the bandwidth you get from 802.11b. alex -- alex avriette al...@po... . unix systems gladiator |

Does anyone have idea if the Linksys WPC 54G card will work with the wireless driver on a TiBook (450)? Thanks |
