mercurysquad is also working on intel drivers - check it here:
http://projectcamphor.mercurysquad.com/

dong as disassembled IO80211 - search for source code of IO80211Controller , IO80211Interface here

pjmiller435 also works on intel cards: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=164237

get iwi's latest files from
http://code.google.com/p/iwidarwin/

Please read the FAQ here http://code.google.com/p/iwidarwin/wiki/FAQ

check for development news in this tread

mac os x 10.5 support exists for iwi2100, iwi2200 , iwi3945 and iwi4965

at this time only iwi2100 and iwi2200 driver works - for mac os x 10.4 and 10.5

to learn how to install and test latest version of iwi drivers read
http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=71779

iwi3945/4965
check last release source code in this thread. the drivers need code for associating to networks sad.gif

the drivers aren't stable - to see how it works open console.app -> system.log
if you get errors in system.log like timeouts,fw errors,rf kill,etc try a few reboots
after install goto system preferences -> networks and check if the iwi device is there (en1,etc)
this is important if you use kextload to load the driver
to test the card it must be powered on - use the wirless switch or reboot from windows with the card powered on.
match your log against the linux log to check if the driver is working - compare with attached linux logs
to catch kernel panics boot with flag -v -debug=0x100

To fix PCI pci bus detection, use the files from: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...036&st=500# - this avoids issues of the card appearing switched off. (thanks asstastic)

Developers
you can join the project and help writting code.
i don't have a magic solution to make the drivers work - help by writing some lines of code if you can.
post new releases/source code here so we can discuss it.
get ready to ignore some people comments - we can't please everybody

thanks for helping
