jp0933 Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 I have Mac OS X 10.4.5 successfully installed on my dell pc with everything working including ethernet. The only thing that doesn't work is the sound card, which I expected. I then installed it on my dell 600m laptop and everything works great....sound too. I can not get ethernet or wireless to work. Anyone have this figured out? Thanks Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/16375-ethernet-not-working/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
jp0933 Posted May 1, 2006 Author Share Posted May 1, 2006 I just wanted to add that it is a broadcom 570x gigabit intergrated ethernet card in my laptop.

InnerMonkey Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 look here for a HACK to get your broadcom kinda working: http://forum.osx86project.org/index.php?sh...pic=4987&st=100 The meat of the info is in the last few pages. For the wireless...there's a chance we're in the same boat (I have a latitude D610), and you have the Intel 2200 wireless (2915 chip) that currently has no working drivers. I've resorted to a USB wireless dongle that I velcro to the top of the lid and connect with a little 6 inch usb cable.

TapaH Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 I have Dell 600m and just everything working! The only issue is video, that doesn't have acceleration for now... And may be irda. I made some tweaks to have wi-fi works like AirPort and then ethernet works too. Sound works just out of the box. My noname bluetooth usb dongle works too without any tweaks and drivers I'll search info on wi-fi tweaking that I've made.

TapaH Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Look here - http://forum.osx86project.org/index.php?sh...ic=11856&hl=en0 Just after installation my wi-fi was working good, but after first reboot it gone. I find out, that there is a problem causing MacOS to think that your wi-fi is just simple build-in network interface (ethernet) so you have to make it think you have AirPort I modified /library/preferences/systemconfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist and now all working fine Here I attached my working plist. plist.zip Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/16375-ethernet-not-working/#findComment-112755 Share on other sites More sharing options...
