[Wirelessdriver-support] Wi-Linx (Gemtek) WL-205 Works

[Steven N. <ste...@er...>]

I have successfully used a Wi-Linx (now defunct) WL-205 card, which is a
relabeled Gemtek WL-205 card. FCC ID MXF-WL205.

I wasn't able to test WEP support.

[Wirelessdriver-support] problem with powerbook g4/500 and wireless driver (troubleshooting output included)

[alex a. <avr...@sp...>]

i'm not sure what this /Library/PreferencePanes directory is supposed 
to point to. when i plug the card in, it stays off. no led's come up or 
anything. i have the "turn card off" option in the menu, but it doesnt 
appear to do anything. rebooting and removing/replacing the card does 
not help the situation.

i have an onboard airport card, im trying to do this to see if i can 
get some better reception.

this card was confirmed working in a dell mumble laptop yesterday, and 
in a thinkpad some months ago.

thanks for your help all.

I appreciate the promt reply!  Thank you.

I still have a problem in setting up the Network Configuration as the 
ports offered in creating a new setting only offers:

Internal Modem
Built-In Ethernet

The Farallon Wireless card is not recognized as a port which, I 
believe, is needed to make this work.

[Wirelessdriver-support] Question concerning Jaguar and Farallon Card

[Imagine T. <tm...@im...>]

Hi, everyone.  My name is Tee and i'm upgrading my desktop Mac from 9 
to OX X.2.  So far, so good...but I downloaded the OS X driver for the 
Farallon SkyLINE 11 Mbps Wireless card and I'm coming up with nothing.  
On installing the driver, I did get a "Wireless Config" pop up in the 
"Other" category of "System Preferences", but I did not get the 
"Ethernet Adaptor" option in the "Network".  So I'm at a loss as to 
what I need to do.  I did check the FAQ page and found that OS X.2 
issues are resolved and that there is basic support (which is all I 
need as I'm trying to get my card to pick up a signal from a router for 
cable modem connection), but I'm missing a step somewhere.

Any ideas?

Again, here are the stats:

OS:  Mac Version 10.2
Card:  Farallon SkyLINE 11 Mbps Wireless

Installation partially successful.  Have option for Wireless Config in 
System Preferences, but do not have option for "Ethernet Adaptor".


Thanks in advance for any advice or help here,

Tee Morris

I went through several install/un-installs to get there but I'm up

[Wirelessdriver-support] Wallstreet & Skyline Success

[Wayne S. <spi...@in...>]

Just to let you know that my Wallstreet (with a Powerlogix 466 G3 card) with
Mac OS X.2 and the Skyline card is working well.  It took two installs of b5
to work...BUT, IT WORKS!!!! 

Re: [Wirelessdriver-support] No installer with 5_1.mpkg?

[<ro...@sp...>]

Use Pacifist to install the b5 driver. The b5 installer is broken=20
anyway, it installs the drivers in the wrong place so Pacifist is the=20
best way to install it in the correct place. The kext file should be=20
installed in /System/Library/Extensions/ the prefpane in=20
/Library/PreferencePanes/.

  As I said before Archive and install is the best way to install Jaguar=20=

so you should install the b5 driver after you have installed Jaguar.

[Wirelessdriver-support] Success with Sohoware NetBlaster II

[Kurt J. <ku...@zo...>]

I have has success using a Sohoware NetBlaster II Wireless PC Card 
unencrypted on OSX 10.2.3 on a Lombard G3 333.  After installing the 
5.1 beta package, I used the modifications to 
/System/Library/Extensions/WirelessDriver.kext/Contents/Info.plist 
previously posted to the list.   I needed to delete 
/System/Library/Extensions.kextcache and 
/System/Library/Extensions.mkext to get it to work. Since I did not 
choose to install OS9, I deleted these files in single user mode, and 
it seemed to do the job.

I am using the Sohoware 802.11b basestation, and have no trouble web 
browsing with Chimera or using the mail client native to Jaguar.

Before I did the modofications to the default installation, en1 would 
not appear in the Network preferences pane, and running WirelessConfig 
from the command line produced and error message complaining that it 
couldn't find a wireless driver service in the registry.

Thanks again to the developers, and to those who posted the fixes 
mentioned above.  I am elated to be able to run 802.11b on my powerbook 
now!

[Wirelessdriver-support] No installer with 5_1.mpkg?

[Dale S. <dts...@ma...>]

Hi again. Thanks for the good information all who replied. I am now 
in the middle of installing the 5_1.mpkg beta driver but seem to be 
stuck as I can't get an installer to run. I've removed the earlier 
driver but there doesn't seem to be an installer app to run in the 
download for 5_1. Am i missing something here? At this point, I gone 
back to the version 4 driver without jaguar installed.

Any help appreciated.

[Wirelessdriver-support] Upgrading to 10.2?

[Dale S. <dts...@ma...>]

Hi listers:

I am running 10.15 on my 300 Mhz G3 powerbook and the version of 
driver I have had installed for some time now seems to work fine in 
either OSX or 9.2.2. So here's my question. Santa has been good and 
brought Jaguar home! Do I need to upgrade my wireless driver either 
now or after installing 10.2? I certainly don't want to loose any of 
my current capabilities.

Anxiously awaiting word before I install.

Thanks,

Dale

[Wirelessdriver-support] Is Intel 2011 PC Card supported under Jaguar 10.2.3 ?

[Benoit S. <ben...@fr...>]

Dear all,

 

I'm trying to use an Intel 2011 PC Card on my G4 TI.

 

When I plug the card, I see en1 with ifconfig on terminal.

But the mac address is 00:00:00:00:00:00.

 

On the upper right corner of the Mac OS X screen, I have an option

To activate the card, when I activate it, I cant see the card anymore
with ifconfig.

 

That's why I wonder if my card is supported by the driver!

 

Has anyone any idea?

 

Thanks to all.

 

Benoit.

 

 

 

[Wirelessdriver-support] Card Mount with Lombard Powerbook

[Wayne D. <wd...@sh...>]

Hi I bought a Netgear router and MA401RA card today and have installed both these drivers and the ioxperts drivers (at different times) and was able to get the system to work once, but what I am noticing it that the card does not mount, so when I go to the little PCCARD icon in the menu bar it says: Unknown Vendor, Unknown Card Type. and gives me the option of turning the power off. A couple times I noticed it came up with a very garbled name. The time I got it to work the name came up right (MA401RA (same as every other name posted here for my version of the Netgear card).

Again I was able to make this all work for about 1/2 hour, till I had to reboot, then it wouldn't show the name of the card again, just Unknown Vendor etc.

Can anyone help me with this, how can I get the card to come up, when I run the tech report from here it shows the card as

    |    +-o pccard-no-cis@0,0 <class IOPCCard16Device>
    |        "IONmae" = "pccard-no-cis"

I know the router is fine, the pccard slot is good (my FW card works fine). So is it OSX, or do I have a bad PCCard from Netgear? The program and driver seem to be fine, it seems to be more to do with getting the PCCARD name recognized.

Thanks

Tony Dehnke

[Wirelessdriver-support] Premium

[Dianna <d-...@co...>]

Anyone know if Premium card works?

[Wirelessdriver-support] Appletalk printing and more....

[Martin J. <mjo...@ma...>]

Hi,

I am wondering when and if Appletalk printing is to be supported by 
this driver.

Also, I do not know that this has anything to do with our beloved open 
source wireless driver,  but I am submitting it just in case someone 
else has seen it also:

I am running a 384M PMG3 Wallstreet (266M), which has been absolutely 
solid since 10.1.

Now, as of 10.2.3 I have seen a pattern of kernel panics, when logging 
out.  This has happened with all users and no less then 5 times since 
updating a week ago or so...

The crash log shows nothing...

I do not use any third party add ons aside from Timbuktu, and the 
wireless driver.

Ideas, suggestions or thoughts appreciated.

Thanks again for the Wireless driver, it really is a needed and super 
useful addition.
Thanks,
Marty

[Wirelessdriver-support] HELP with appletalk!

[Alex A. <eb...@tw...>]

Hello, I have a powerbook G3 series @ 233mhz.  Im running X.1.5 and I 
have installed the wireless driver for it.  I have the orinoco silver 
wireless card.  I can access the internet fine with the wireless, but I 
can't connect to my desktop!  I have tried the afp://IP address  and I 
have the built in ethernet port disabled in active network ports under 
the network control panel.  However, if i re-enable the ethernet port as 
active, and plug into the switch on the wireless router itself, I can 
access my desktop computer using either the afp://ipaddress or usinng 
the go--->connect to server--->appletalk browse feature.   How can i 
access my desktop from my powerbook on a wireless network!  Is there 
something I am forgetting?  Oh yes, I don't have a airport basestation, 
i have  a D-link 614+.  When I called D-link they said that it shoud 
work, and sence it wasn't a problem with their hardware, they coudln't 
help me.  any help would be greatly appreciated.  -alex

[Wirelessdriver-support] Wireless Driver works on PB 2400 w/Skyline

[Ivan D. <iv...@ya...>]

I just wanted to let you know that I am happily using Mac OS X 10.2 on a 
PowerBook 2400 (G3 upgraded), with a Skyline 11 Mbps, thanks to 
WirelessDriver (b5).

I was able to install 10.2 with the assistance of XPostFacto 
(http://eshop.macsales.com/osxcenter/xpostfacto), and some things work, 
and some things don't (for example, I can't sleep). With an earlier 
version of XPostFacto and 10.1.5, WirelessDriver (b4) would kernel panic 
on startup, so this is a dramatic improvement. I may not use it every 
day, but at least I know I have the lightest wireless Mac running OS X...

Nice work!

Argh wrote down the wrong command. It should be ifconfig and not=20
ipconfig. The command that should be typed in the terminal looks like=20
this:

sudo ifconfig en1 mtu 1492

en1 command changes depending on which interface number the wireless=20

[Wirelessdriver-support] Problem solved!

[<ro...@sp...>]

I had a problem with my PB and accessing some https sites, sending 
emails and accessing Software Update when I used the WLan card. The 
connection always timed out. It worked great accessing everything when 
I connected the DSL modem straight to the PB. I use a Cube as a 
software airbase station.

The solution was to change MTU setting on en1 on the PB to 1492. 
Standard value is 1500 when I changed it to 1492 by typing sudo 
ipconfig en1 mtu 1492 in the terminal everything worked just like on 
the Cube. Maybe this should be added to the FAQ for people that have 
problem connecting to some sites?

Now the drivers works great!

I have a 400Mhz G3 PowerBook (Lombard), OS X 10.2.3 and an EPox WCL-11 
WLan card, using b5 Wireless driver.
