splitjewel Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 I don't see this posted, so I'm making a HowTo. Anyways, this for when you have Intel PRO/100 VE. When you go into System Preferences/Network and your Built-In Ethernet is not show/grayed out, this is the fix for you. You are required to add a product ID AppleIntel8255x.kext, which is located here: /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleIntel8255x.kext/Contents/Info.plist If you don't know how to get into the kext, right click it and choose "Show Package Contents." Anyways, you will find the following line. You will have to add the following bit to the end of that line. In the end, it will look like this: Save the .plist file (save it to the desktop with the name "Info.plist" and then drag it into the Contents folder for AppleIntel8255x.kext. It will ask for authentication, which you say yes to (must type password if you have one). Open up Terminal and type in the following Open Disk Utility and Repair Disk Permissions. Reboot. Completed! Open up System Preferences/Network and you should see your Built-In Ethernet I have been trying solutuons for days withno luck but I have a question, where and how do I find the product ID AppleIntel8255x.kext I fond the line where to eter the 0x.... bit how do I find my ID... since I tried the one provided and dint work?? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 I have a Intel 82566M ethernet on my ThinkPad, and did try the suggested solution by adding 0x10498086 to the .kext file; did not work. Since this guide is for 8255x cards and mine is 8256x do you think I should persist and add -f to appleboot? Anyone had success with a 82566M card?

whocares Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I wanted to add what I did to get the network to work under Leopard 10.5.0 on my Dell 4700 with the Intel Pro/100 VE onboard nic. The network was saying the cable was unplugged so I opened terminal and typed this: sudo -s nano /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist then I added -f under the kernal flags section then ctrl+x then y then enter go here for screen shots to get a clearer picture of what you might see : http://www.neonkoala.co.uk/content/view/33/34 This worked great for me as well. Using Kalyway 10.5.1 in Intel D915GAG board. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sieutrom Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 here is what i do to make it work in leopard: right click /System/Library/Extensions folder and click "Get Info", click the padlock button below and enter your root password when prompted then click the "+" icon and add your user account giving it read+write permission then click ok.. open the Extensions folder and find IONetworkingFamily.kext then drag and drop it on the desktop or some place(backup is a good idea). now, unzip the file that i attached below and drag it in /System/Library/Extensions. delete /System/Library/Extensions.mkext (you can delete it on the finder or by typing this on the terminal "sudo rm -f /System/Library/Extensions.mkext" repair permission and reboot your system if all goes well, you should be able to see your network card listed. if it happens that you see your network card but says that there is no ethernet cable plugged in, just delete/System/Library/Extension.mkext and reboot your system. it may or may not resolve the issue but in my case it works so just give it a try.. i was apply this method,but after repair permission,leopard not boot and appear text:"kernel panic"please guide me fix it.thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zaied Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 I thought I'd add that I'm running a Thinkpad T40 (2374-KU1). I followed the method exactly but realized the number that you append in the plist file should be your OWN Intel PRO/100 vendor and device id. In my case, my Intel PRO/100 Ethernet has a device id of 103d and a vendor id of 8086, so the line inserted in my case was 0x103d8086. Vendor and device ids can be found in Windows' device manager for your Intel PRO/100 Chipset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milmacman Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Dang, no joy. If Windows stated that the ethernet was Intel Pro/100 VE--then any or all of the following these should work, right? I've tried all of these but the torrent (right now there are no seeds and only about one-fourth of the file) and still nada. Every single time, Network pane still reads "Cable Unplugged." Anyone have any other ideas? It's frustrating--this is the only thing that doesn't work on my OSX86 install (and interestingly, the most important thing I need).

I installed Kalyway 10.5.1 on a old HP dc7600 small form factor and with the help of all your great instructions/patches I managed to have everything working, everything but the Ethernet that is an Intel PRO/100 and is not showing in System Preferences/network and following your instructions, it doesn't show still. The Ethernet controller I have is an INTEL 82566DM, so is maybe the kext (AppleIntel8255x.kext) is not the right one? Does anybody have any suggestions? I'm desperate...
