I just got a new MSI Wind U120 netbook with the 802.11b/g/n and it has a Atheros AR5B91 chip in it. this netbook is going to be very popular as it replaces the MSI 100 /etc .. is there anyone willing to take on the challenge of getting it to work? thanks! :D

If I had one of these wireless cards I might take a stab at it however, going over the notes, the 9281 is using the 5416+5133 sections of the driver so I would think that modifying the ID's in 10.5.x Atheros driver would be sufficient to make it work.

Hi,

 

Very happy to see the community wanting this driver too.

 

I'm in the same boat with my Asus EEEPC 1000HE. We really nedd this...

 

I don't have the skills to program but i can test the driver if someone want it.

 

Thanks

Bob
