macgirl Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 Zydas 4.57 10.4 driver is working on Leopard. My wifi usb dongle is a Belkin F5D7050 V4000. What I did, 1. After first install and restart, try to unplug and replug the dongle first. The device will then appear in the Wlan's Network Adapter list but it is alway connecting and there is NO available network. 2. Open System Preferences, click Network, Configure the Ethernet Adpter (En1) MANUALLY, ie., IP/Subnet Mask/Router/DNS. 3. Click Assist me..., then Diagnotics.... 4. Go back to WLan, it should be working now. Good Luck. BTW, you don't have to unplug the dongle every time after restart. Great... Same here, with a 3Com. I like more than my Ralink USB, and also has better reception Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chema Garcia Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Hi, mine (also Belkin F5D7050 V4000) is now also working under Leopard OSX 10.5.1. There is new release of the driver which ends: 9.0 instead of 7.0. The ID of the device and manufacturer were OK with this new release. Thanks CheeseCake for the additional and extremely helpful instructions to complete the process. Zydas 4.57 10.4 driver is working on Leopard. My wifi usb dongle is a Belkin F5D7050 V4000.

macgirl Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 your F5D7051 is not a Zydas based adapter, you can see that from the windows driver. AFAIK there are no drivers for USB Broadcom based on Mac OS X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOrB Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 Happy New Year! Meant to post this some time ago, before I joined forum-but now I can The latest drivers for Zydas USB chipsets- lots of different brands- Gigafast, Staples Retail Plus, some Trendnet, etc. can always be found at: Macwireless Panther, Tiger and Leopard drivers. They also have drivers for PCI wireless, etc. I'm posting this in a few Zydas threads- I suppose this is the main driver sub-forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macgirl Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 You need to add a new interface, it wont show automatically. You can also add a new location and the new interface will appear (as ethernet not as airport btw.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Leo Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I have my desktop computer with Leopard 10.5.2 and my laptop with Tiger 10.4.9 / Ubuntu 8.04. Is it possible to share internet connection between the two computers using 2 of this Zydas USB dongles? The Desktop machine is connected to the internet with cablemodem through the Ethernet port. I just couldn't set it up. I thought it would be the same than share internet with an ethernet cable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teenagemojoworkout Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Hi..this is my first post and Ive been having alot of problems with the Zydas driver and the WLAN.app. I'm using a zyXel g-220 v2 wifi reciever and the poduct id is 13327 and the vendor id is 1414. I tried following Tek_No's guide, and when I finished the adapter still wasnt being recodnised by the computer. Then I just completely deleted the ZD1215Mac.kext and replaced it with the one this guy posted in this topic (http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=106752). Now the adapted is recognized, but when the WLAN app starts up the icon bounces for a while and then it says the application failed. Thanks you guys.. this has taken me hours to try and fix but I dont know why its behaving this way. PS Im using leopard 10.5.4 and Ive tried versions 4.5.7 and 4.5.10 of the Zydas drivers.

Ok, lets get you to provide information that is helpful. Go to system profiler and click on USB and then click on your device. You will know you have identified the correct device when you see output that looks something like: (I have two of these devices) USB2.0 WLAN: Removable Media: No Detachable Drive: Yes BSD Name: en2 Version: 48.10 Bus Power (mA): 500 Speed: Up to 480 Mb/sec Manufacturer: ZyDAS Mac OS 9 Drivers: No Partition Map Type: Unknown Product ID: 0x340f Vendor ID: 0x0586 and USB2.0 WLAN: Removable Media: No Detachable Drive: Yes BSD Name: en3 Version: 48.10 Bus Power (mA): 500 Speed: Up to 480 Mb/sec Manufacturer: ZyDAS Mac OS 9 Drivers: No Partition Map Type: Unknown Product ID: 0x1215 Vendor ID: 0x0ace Your values will probably be different so you will have to provide the information if you wish to be helped.

spclk Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 I get an appropriate (see Buildsmart from Sept 9, 2008) output from my System Profiler which is very strange because I get a flash of light from the adapter, it's powering on and then off again in about 1-2 seconds. Removing the adapter doesn't change what shows up in Profiler. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kulefos Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Fiberline WL-430U (a.k.a. Zydas 1211b USB) works on iDeneb 1.4 / 10.5.6 (with patches) Motherboard used: ASUS P5Q-E BIOS set to Legacy USB enabled, BIOS EHCI Hand-Off disabled What I needed to do was: 1: The "USB fix 1.3.MPKG" (aka USB Fix Installer) Forum link: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...p;mode=threaded (Download is in solution 'C') 2: The Leopard Driver '4.5.7d0' for the Zydas 1211b USB found on Versiontracker Link: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/29964 It forces a reboot, so: 3: reboot 4: (if the network interface does not appear) The workaround as mentioned in this thread. System Preferences > Network > Add (+) > Ethernet adapter > configure manually IP, s/n, router, dns... 5: un- and re-plug the USB dongle (eventually the driver crashes/freezes) 6: another reboot 7: connect to desired WLAN network, then switch the newly created Ethernet adaptor to "dhcp", everything good now. Finally I can remove that cable Andreas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
