I have the AppleRTL8169Ethernet.kext (dated 1 August 2009 06:55 138 KB from OS X 10.6.8/Snow Leopard) in the PlugIns folder of the OS X Lion 10.7.5 IONetworkingFamily.kext, from which it is/was missing i.e. no longer included in the OS X Lion IONetworkingFamily.kext; in the PlugIns folder of the OS X Snow leopard IONetworkingFamily.kext; and in /System/Library/Extensions/ of OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2.........in all these systems, the AppleRTL8169Ethernet.kext is loading and connecting OS X to the Internet without any problems via my Netgear GA311......make sure that the kext ownership and permissions are correctly set.....

My Apple8169.kext version states 1.1.4a5 so is that a problem with this version ? Also can you attach your 8169 kext

Thanks
