Atheros Wireless LAN Kext

[JCman]

Does anyone know of a release that will support a Atheros Wireless LAN 802.11b/g module?

I've got a Toshiba 135-S7403 laptop and I'm dying to install Leopard but so far I can't find a release that works with the wireless. If not does anyone know of a way that I could install the wireless card or make it work?

Check this post out http://www.infinitemac.com/f5/how-do-i-get...rking-in-t1722/

 

A good start would be finding your Vendor/Device IDs and Ive discussed it there.

 

for the sake of link problems here is my post from the above link.

 

When I start looking for a driver I begin with finding out:

1. Manufacturer Name

2. Model Number

3. Version

5. Vendor ID

6. Device ID

 

I would download DPCI Manager here: http://duddie.kazzuya.com/proj/DPCIManager_01.zip This tool allows you to find the Vendor & Device IDs for your Atheros card

 

It will show you something like this:

 

 

For example the numbers on the left in the first column are the Vendor IDs and the numbers on the right in the first column are the Device ID. Find your wireless card's vendor & device IDs

 

The link I posted in my first response shows a method of editing the IO80211Family.kext from Tiger (as they reported problems modifying the one included in Leopard) Basically adding your card's vendor & device ids.

 

I would read the post inside and out along with backing up prior to making any changes.
