Claymm Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 Hi guys ! I'm running on Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard on a Dell Latitude E6400 with a Vanilla install. I've got a USB Wifi XG762N in order to get internet (because my Intel MiniPCI 5100 isn't supported yet) and I can't find the drivers for this USB dongle for Snow Leopard. I've got drivers which work with 10.3 10.4 and 10.5 but when I try to install them, the installer get me an error like : "The Installation Failed". Is there someone who can solve my problem plz ? thanks in advance. Cheers. Claym. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hchinasky Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Hi, Don´t use the installer, just place the driver in S/L/E and repair permissions and use wlan utility to connect to your network. also check http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...=186770&hl= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riws Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Install the 10.5 one with Pacifist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claymm Posted January 18, 2010 Author Share Posted January 18, 2010 I finally found everything and after a couple of attempts it works ! Thanks very much hchinasky ! About my cam I found that I can only have the sleep OR the cam for the moment. For the moment only shutdown/restart seem to don't work with the cam and my Intel 5100 wireless miniPCI (that's why I'm using a dongle). I'll try to keep continuing searching for a solution for shutdown/restart (but I think it's the graphical drivers which are responsible. By the way. Thanks very much. Cheers. Claym.

Claymm Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 You just need to install both kexts (they are two) and install the software ZWlan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claymm Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 You just need KextHelper v7 (google it) and install both kexts with it. Then install the software ZWLan (you can find it on internet) and it worked for me. You can install the kexts via the Terminal if you know the commands.

I though that you need to install in S/L/E or... it's not necessary? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claymm Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 That's what Kext Helper does. Don't do this on your own because you have some permissions to repair ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron98 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 You just need KextHelper v7 (google it) and install both kexts with it. Then install the software ZWLan (you can find it on internet) and it worked for me. You can install the kexts via the Terminal if you know the commands. it's easy to patch the 2 kexts with kext helper. but how can you install the ZWlan software? it always breaks during the install process. can you upload a copy of your software? i digged this for days without solution, can you help me with this, you are really appreciated.
