jeffturner24 Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 I have seen too many forums on how to do this, and there IS an easier way. Download this .kext and install it with KextHelper: .kext: http://matthieu.yiptong.ca/wp-content/uplo...amily.kext_.zip KextHelper: http://cheetha.net/ Try kextloading IO80211Family.kext, go to network settings and try connecting, if it doesnt work, try this: Go to: /System/Library/Extensions/IO80211Family.kext/Contents/Plugins/AirportAtheros5424.kext/Contents Open up info.plist, and scroll down till you see <string>pci106b,0086</string> <string>pci106b,1c</string> <string>pci168c,1c</string> <string>pci168c,1014</string> <string>pci168c,13</string> <string>pci168c,14</string> <string>pci168c,15</string> <string>pci168c,16</string> <string>pci168c,17</string> <string>pci168c,18</string> <string>pci168c,19</string> <string>pci168c,1a</string> <string>pci168c,1b</string> <string>pci168c,1c</string> <string>pci168c,52</string> <string>pci168c,55</string> <string>pci168c,57</string> <string>pci168c,58</string> <string>pci168c,58a</string> <string>pci168c,86</string> <string>pci168c,87</string> Delete them all and add <string>pci144f,7094</string> <string>pci168c,1a</string> (for AR5005G only, use the Ubuntu Live DVD to find your cards) Now try kextloading IO80211Family.kext, it should work. To kextload a .kext, go to Terminal, type sudo -s cd /System/Library/Extensions kextload IO80211Family.kext The only problem I have had is connecting to WPA encrypted networks, if anyone knows a fix, please post here or message me.
