chrisadd Posted August 13, 2005 Author Share Posted August 13, 2005 I just read on xplode's site that there is no way to get it working currently. I emailed him and he said he'd post a driver when it became available. http://www.xplodenet.com/?p=tt Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/170-network-card/#findComment-1643 Share on other sites More sharing options...
p3n5t3r Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 What about drivers for network cards built into a motherboard (for native instalation). I have a ASUS P5GD1 Pro motherboard and it has a Marvell Yukon 88E8053 PCI-E gigabit ethernet controller which is not recognized by MacOS. Is there any way to get drivers for it? Maybe I should just get me a cheap realtek. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/170-network-card/#findComment-1708 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an Asus P4C800E Deluxe mobo with onboard LAN, and an external wifi card. OSx86 could not and will not recognize the linksys wifi card, so i had to deal with my LAN port, and try and get it running over my wireless network. So ipicked up a spare wireless router I had, threw the Alchemy firmware on it, set it to Client mode and changed about a thousand settings in it. Now my OSx86 technically has its own Airport extreme card, and by airport extreme, i mean giga-lan wired to a router. Getting my spare router to connect wirelessly to my main router was a {censored} though. Found some great articles online that helped a lot.

Have you tried Firefox intead of Safari? Thank you! Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/170-network-card/#findComment-1747 Share on other sites More sharing options...
HotShot Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Safari only crashes on certain pages. I can cruise simple pages (Google) all day, but complex pages (Digg) send it into the ground. The x86 FireFox (Deer Park) hasn't crashed on me yet. (I'm using it right now.) I don't think the chipset comes into play in the browser crashes.

opq Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 AFAIK Asus switched to using Marvell from the 3C940LOM or something. I too have the Marvell 88E8053 PCI-E gigabit ethernet controller and if someone has a solution it'd be great.
