MNSiw Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I've installed Mavericks DP 1, everything worked out of the box except sound, used kext from Mountain Lion to enable it, at this point Shutdown and Restart working fine, but as install RT2870USBWirelessDriver.kext to enable my USB Wi-Fi, shutdown and restart stop working properly, system shutdown but cpu fan keep spinning and Wi-Fi light keep blinking, for restart I have to press restart button, if I uninstall RT2870USBWirelessDriver.kext shutdown and restart restore to normal. Other USB devices like keyboard, mouse and mass storage are working fine without any shutdown / restart issue. Any sugesstion / solution for this problem? Here are my hardware: Intel DW61WW i3-2100 GS8400 TP-Link WN727N USB Keyboard & Mouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eep357 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 If everything except sound works otb, why install RT2870USBWirelessDriver.kext? Anyway, after usual stuff like restart fix in boot loader or DSDT has been tried, check kext's dependancies, maybe need to roll back another kext like IOUSBFamily, etc.. If this is UHCI (USB 1.1) and all other devices are EHCI (USB 2.0) or 3.0, see if another USB 1.0 device that works otb can cause same problem. Process of elimination will eventually lead you to the cure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac Hosehead Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Interestingly, I had similar behavior using a real Airport card from an old Macbook Pro. It would not completely shutdown or sleep. I have used the card with success in other hacks. I also have a TL-WDN4800 and with it I have no sleep or shutdown problems. Since this is a design preview I suppose you could try one of the kexts that are purposed to aid in the shutdown of problematic systems. It is just a bandage to an underlying problem but it might suffice for the present. I suspect you will need an updated wifi driver. -MH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually during installation USB Wi-Fi was not plugged in, that why everything else except sound worked OOB :-D may be it's USB 1.1 issue, but for now don't have any alternate. While trying different kexts, installed D-Link DAW-140 driver for OS X 10.6, feel like it improve Wi-Fi proformace little bit, but shutdown / restart problem is still there.

ham4ever Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 is bit annoying doesnt break PC to force shutdown all time ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MNSiw Posted September 13, 2013 Author Share Posted September 13, 2013 is bit annoying doesnt break PC to force shutdown all time ? Yeah it's annoying but all possible solutions need some money I using it this way for 7-8 months, no problem so far. If somehow we can force kext to stop or unload before system restart or shutdown that may help, but I don't know about any such utility or tool that can do it. What's your opinion?

RAW2019 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Hi all, Wanted to share how i fixed my Tp-link 727n in 10.8. It supposed to work also in 10.9. I got version 4 which uses a mediatek chip (used to be realtek) I found it out using this site. https://wikidevi.com/wiki/TP-LINK_TL-WN727N_v4 The other Version 4 is china only. Cause you need to get the chipset right. I got a MediaTek MT7601U And there is a russian site that has all the 'old' drivers I used google translate to read it https://applelife.ru/threads/usb-wi-fi-d-link-dwa-125-dwa-140-dwa-160-i-dr.41353/ I don't need to enter device ID or anything. It just worked straight after installing the drivers and a restart! Also i can remove the stick without a KP. Haven't tried sleep but that doesn't work on my desktop anyway. But i think it works according to the text next to driver nr 2. ( my chipset) Hope you all have luck with this ( i almost send the stick back today. It was only 10 euro) I very happy )))) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
