lamentofking Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 My Dell Inspiron Mini 1012 is running on 10.6.6 and all the devices that were reported to work with this netbook do work...except Wi-Fi . I am at least able to see networks, but after I connect I get the Alert: No Internet Connection Message . I thought it might be just my connection so I tried to connect to another open connection without a wpa2 password (i heard those were iffy) and same thing . My router is giving off an N connection speed I'm sure (I have Fios Internet) . I have an Atheros AR9285 card . dev id 168c x 002b . I've been searching for solutions but I still cannot get this wifi card to be fully functional . I'll note that in system preferences it says Airport Self-Assigned IP and then the yellow ball right beside it. When I manually assign an IP it turns green but then the Airport doesn't seem to like the iP or doesn't accept changes and goes back to it's default IP.

MacFaulty Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Hmm... This is a vague one. I have the same card, check my signature; laptop, and works O-O-B. You might want to try one of the 10.6.8 kext. Though, not sure which to replace. And if you set your router to auto b/g/n instead of n only? Does that work? Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
