wickettaker Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 What's the current situation on Intel® Wireless WiFi Link 5100 working on kalyway 10.5.2? Does it work on other versions? Also, if there is nothing as of yet, will an external wireless Wi-Fi USB device work with the Kalyway Mac OS X? If so, what's recommended? Any help is very much appreciated. Thanks!

Erdbeeere Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 At the moment there is no easy solution, buy another card what is compatibel (For example Broadcom 4311) for 10 dollar and you will be happy.

wickettaker Posted May 7, 2009 Author Share Posted May 7, 2009 Could you please direct me to a website that sells it? Newegg or anything? I can't find it. Thank you for the reply!

Prasys Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Firstly tell us whats your laptop model If its HP , you need to find a way to bypass the BIOS (search here for more details). That goes same for IBM too Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/165342-intelr-wireless-wifi-link-5100-searched-high-and-low/#findComment-1152684 Share on other sites More sharing options...
loukall Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 I know this is old, but what if you have a Sony Vaio. Can you trick your Bios if you have a 5100 on your Sony Vaio CS? I read somewhere about using linux drivers but the one i have is a .ucode file.
