Skywise_ca Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 I'm going to need a fair list of them since the compaq I'm trying to get going has BIOS checks on the wifi card plugged into it and it forces you to turn the laptop off and remove the card before it'll boot. Soooooo, what wifi cards work well with X86OSx? Sky Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/18790-which-minipci-wifi-cards-work-well/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discostu2120 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Check the wiki for the hardware compatibility list first to get a general idea of what works for some. Gigabyte gn-wiag02 works great in 10.4.5 with no mods for me. Thats atheros ar5005g based.

Skywise_ca Posted June 15, 2006 Author Share Posted June 15, 2006 Ok, I've got Wifi working with my X1000 laptop. I bought a HP broadcom Maxperformance minipci adapter off Ebay for $13 and it worked perfectly, it shows up in OS X as an airport extreme.
