GA-P35-DS3L retail install; Everything works except PCI Wifi!

[masoudt]

Hey guys,

 

Here's my hardware:

 

MOBO: GA-P35-DS3L

Graphics: Nvidia 9600GT 512MB

Sound & LAN work OOB

PCI wifi: I've tried Linksys WMP-300N, D-Link DWA-552 & TP-Link TL-WN851N cards, nothing works!

 

 

I did a retail install of 10.6.0 using Chameleon based on this guide: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...p;mode=threaded

 

I used that installer for the GA-P35-DS4 board, and his DSDT and settings all worked, except for pci wifi cards. According to the wiki, my cards should work OOB.

 

I've tried everything to get a working install (adding AtherosFix.kext, creating my own DSDT, changing BIOS options, booting into x64 and x32.)

 

Anyone know what else I can do to get this wifi working? I'm at my wits end! lspci reads my pci card, but it says "Atheros Communications unknown device, id: pci168c,0029". I've added the device id to AirportAtheros21.kext in IO80211Family.kext but still it doesn't work.

 

HELP PLEASE!

 

Thanks in advance.
