atae Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Anyone else run into issues with atheroes chip's after the 10.5.6 updates. I've tried everything, 2 cards a dwa-542 which isusally working OOB and a DWL-G520 which requires a modified kext. It seems that the airportatheroes from older versions are causing a kerenl panic. Ive tried multiple distros and even upgrading my current install. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/146452-no-wireless-1056/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive tried multiple distros and even upgrading my current install. I have the same strange issue. My Broadcom 4315 works fine with kext from 10.5.5 after editing info.plist. But no any success with kext from 10.5.6. So return to previous version. Kext from 10.5.5 works fine in 10.5.6.

yangyang Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 The same problem after 10.5.6 update from iA 10.5.5. The USB WIFI Belkin F5D7050B (was working without a hitch on K 10.5.2) stopped working properly, however, could be recognised occasionally. It even worked 1 or 2 times right after the 10.5.6 update, but never again. Suspect it might be sth evil in Quick time and iWork 09 installation. System log showed a 'PCGENUSB' loading error, which hasn't been solve by any kext trick. Any thought?

I just get the WIFI dongle loaded without any problem by deleting the AppleUSBEHCI328.kext, instead of PCGENUSB. Your patch is actually my first attempt to fix my problem, although the dongle was only loaded occasionally. Then I added PCGENUSB.kext, having no success, which I just realized must conflicts with Appleusbehci. Thank you for your help and and keep us posted.

Ive tried multiple distros and even upgrading my current install. Did you ever get the DWL-G520 working? I have one in my P5W DH, and it worked fine in 10.5.4 JaS. I just installed iPC 10.5.6 but the system hangs when it tries to load AirPortAtheros5424.kext. I'm trying to use IO80211Family.kext version 1.5.3.

Ive tried multiple distros and even upgrading my current install. I'm trying to use IO80211Family.kext version 1.5.3. My card worked with IO80211Family.kext version 2.1.4 and did not after version 2.1.5 from AirPort Client Update 2009-001 See my other post about this: Post #6 Atheros WiFi 10.5.6 kernal help please Post #535 What network cards work?, List your network card that runs native. After upgrading to the last bios (F6) it is working! And AirPort Client Update 2009-001 can be installed too. It's only a matter of saving BIOS CMOS again w/ the same settings when wireless network is not recognized. This happens mostly after switching from Win__ .
