JeffC Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 I have searched for this solution and can't find a clear answer. I have a Dell Inspiron 1100 2.0ghz Celeron. I am using a Net Gear WG511 v wireless PCMCIA card. I am getting the little wireless card in the upper right hand corner beside the volume icon. When I click it I get two lines that are greyed out: Marvell Semiconductor and below it 88W8310 802.11g Cardbus PC Card Below that is an enabled selection Power Off Card I am trying to find where to turn this on. I am not sure if there is a kext out there or a driver that I need. Thanks for your help.

SticMAC™ Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 This also happened to my Broadcom Card until I added the correct Device ID into the appropriate kext!

onelegend Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 This also happened to my Broadcom Card until I added the correct Device ID into the appropriate kext! StiCMAN Is it possible for you to let us know which kext you had to modify in order to get that to work...
