Xandu Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Finally after days of research and trial I have succeeded in making my Wi-Fi card work (Atheros 5007EG) on Mac OS X 10.5.8 using the iDeneb distro. To make it work is pretty simple, just follow these few steps and you will get it working in no time. Steps: 1-Download and install the Atheros 5007EG drivers in the attachments below, then reboot your machine. You should now see a "fan" icon in your status bar. 2-Download KisMac. 3-Open up KisMac, go to preferences and add “Airport Extreme passive”. Now scan you should see some networks. 4-Close Kismac, open the Airport Utility, choose your network. 5-Enjoy Atheros on Mac . Hope this helps, Xandu.

th3future Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 This solution is not working for me... I've got an EEE 1000HA which I've been told has an Atheros 5007EG. Running 10.5.7 vanilla install with a handful of kexts. Any ideas?

Xandu Posted April 8, 2010 Author Share Posted April 8, 2010 It doesn't work all the time, if it doesn't work just keep restarting your machine till you get a signal .
