Is there a way to use it in Snow Leopard?

[scififan68]

With Snow Leopard 10.6.1, my TP-Link TL-WN550G (Atheros 5005G) works out of the box! and it doesn't even work in Leopard.

Well I'm here again, with a new io80211kext for the new 10.5.7 don't forget to reapir permissions, seeya guys IO80211Family.kext.rar

Thank you very much for the updated kext mate

Still can't connect without using network diagnostics utility though... The airport icon way says connection timeout.. Will it ever be figured out why this is happening?

Can you share the kext with us?

Hello guys !

I have a US Robotics pci wifi card in my desktop pc but it isn't working at the moment. I'm on 10.5.5 but I did my system believe that I am on 10.5.6 (made a change in mijn systemfiles somewhere)

but I should need a working kext for 10.5.5 and maybe also 10.5.6 to have my Atheros AR5005G chip working !

Any chance?

Thx !

Btw, I don't understand the thing with: en1 and en0
this:

Quote

please note you have to have your wireless/airport device as en1, in my case my built in ethernet takes en0 so it works out fine. (make change in /library/systemconfiguration/networkinterfaces.plist)

I can't find the networkinterfaces.plist on that place... Do I have to change this, if yes, where can I find it !

Really thanks in advance

[de_autojohn]

I installed the atheros.pkg from page 12 and now my pci card is recognized and when I open network configuration it says new interface or something like that but it's turned off and I can't turn it on, any solutions? Or a working kext file?

[de_autojohn]

guys?

and i edited one for Leopard as well: http://cid-f44b150c9...ly.kext.Leo.zip (Warning this kext is quite buggy)
http://cid-f44b150c9....kext.SLx64.zip For Snow Leopard 64bit

http://cid-f44b150c9...zip?sa=53787632 is both a 32bit &64bit kext from 10.6.2.

[Willy MAC]

I have the same problem!
Network card seems to work, but says "turned off", and if I turn it on, nothing!

I've just readed the entire post, and after following the instrucions on page 1, I had a new network card, but turned off. I tried to modify NetworkInterfaces.plist file, to make it work... but I didn't find it!

Someone has a working solution?

[Willy MAC]

Ok, installed Atheros PKG of Page 12, repaired permissions, restarted and FULLY WORKING!!

thank you so much!

Hi Guys the AR5005G(S) worked for me in SL, by deleting/renaming AppleHPET.kext so that it wouldn't be loaded. And then adding the vendor and device id in the Info.plist of AirPortAtheros.kext.

0. Update to 10.6.2 + AirPort Client Patch
1. Delete/Rename AppleHPET.kext
2. Add the vendor  and device id in the Info.plist
3. rebuild Extensions.mkext
4. Repair Permissions /
5. reboot

This would work using the using the original airport kext and should be recognize as an AirPort.

I haven't tried it in 64bit yet.

Hope this helps!

I have an AR5005(UG) chipset and not a AR5005(G) but my wifi is actually USB and not PCI based.. I imagine that the (U) simply means USB.. Is there any way to edit the AR5005G driver to work with USB devices? What do I need to do?

[de_autojohn]

come guys, any one has a solution for this? I think already 1000 people got it running but no one wants to help

Try installing it with kexthelper.  That's how I got my atheros 5005g working.  It would work through terminal, but it wouldn't turn on.  Kexthelper worked first try....Hope that helps...

I tried all the manual stuff a bunch of times with Jas 10.4.8, and iAtkos_5i, etc, but i found this and burned it to a cd on my windows 7 machine and then installed it on my Acer 3690, with 10.5.5, with this wifi card in it and it worked. it froze when i first installed the pkg, then i rebooted and it hung one time, then i rebooted again and it worked perfect. connected with wep. might give it a try.

p.s. mine has an id of 0x168c,0x418
