Wierd: Losing all wireless networks (Broadcom 4318)

[Alexander Martinez]

Hey there!

 

First of all I want to say hi to you all and thank most of the people posting here because you've helped out a lot (I'd mention all of you but I lost track )

 

Here's the thing: I ran into a problem that I couldn't find in the board (I searched, really!) and was looking for some insight:

 

Since my mobo is nForce based I know I can't use the onboard LAN, so I pulled a working WLAN Card (Broadcom 4318) from my dad's desktop (Gateway... something). Works fine under XP and Vista (on both machines). Everything works except for sound, but I haven't really tried to get it to work (maybe I'll come back after fixing this issue for more help)

 

Anyways, here it is:

 

 

 

When I boot into OSX it's detected properly as an Airport Card, I can set up the card and connect to any wireless network and surf the net. BUT after using it a while (Can be 1 hour or 1 minute) the connection drops and all the Wireless networks dissapear! 

 

 

I can turn the airport on and off but have no success. No more wireless networks will appear no matter what. The only solution is to reboot, but the problem reapears randomly.  This is really bugging me as it's the only reason why I haven't been enyoing MacOS (no internets = no messenger, no lulz, no forums, no insanelymac = no fun )

 

Does anyone have an idea on what's going on?

Maybe some recomendations, secret trick, prayer, ritual or something to get it to keep the networks from dissapearing? 

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Alex
