roxen Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 If I go in the finder to /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/ and then Get Info for AppleIntel8255x.kext. I see that the kind is "Kernel Extension (PowerPC)" and not Intel or Universal. Maybe this is the problem. I had the same problem with the Apple3Com3C90x.kext. I solved this by downloading the source files and recompiled them. Unfortunately the 3com driver files are the only sources i could find. This is what I did to get the 3Com Ethernet working: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...ork&st=299# Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iCow Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 I ran into the exact same issues that you have. I finally found an IONetworkingFamily.kext from 10.4.3 and if memory serves I just replaced the existing one. I have gotten the Intel PRO/100 VE it to work on an Intel 845GBV I did this, I just took it up to my hackintosh, it worked. All I did was throw it in /System/Library/Extensions/ I authorised and Overwrote. Checked Permissions and Repaired Permissions. Restarted and the ethernet works great. Thanks for the help. Btw, I'm running 10.4.9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N@sh, I still had to manually set up my connection. If you are seeing the device, you're almost therre. Now just manually set your IP & DHCP and such.

Guest Ramm Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 The IONetworkingFamily.kext also applies to certain Realtek models, including the chipset used on the Netgear FA311 and others, just for future reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAC IN TOSH Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Hi, I have read a guy's forum that "Intel PRO/100 VE" works on MAC OS X 10.2.1. If anyone can upload IONetworkingFamily.Kext from OS X 10.2.1, he will be apprecited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moreno53 Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Hi there I followed the directions and I see the Ethernet slot but my network status says 'its a self assigned IP Address and maynot be able to connect to the internet' how do I rectify this?

f11 Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 The 10.4.3-fix does not work with 10.4.9. I've updated my JaS 10.4.8. to 10.4.9 (iLife...) today and my ethernet wasn't usable anymore :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batcavenet Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 I burned the networking extensions zip file, then moved it to the other computer, and unzipped it. I archived the old extensions and then dragged this one to the proper location - and I had to authenticate. Next I logged into the command line tool in utilities, and changed the root passwd with passwd root, then su and put that password. I ran diskutil RepairPermissions / like was suggested above. This fixed my corrupted 3Com 905 problem! Thanks for the advice! Now on to fixing my ATI card to go above 1024x768 hopefully Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
